Chewable Zinc Plus

This is an important mineral in appetite control. A deficiency can cause loss of taste and smell, creating a need for stronger-tasting foods ( which tend to be sweeter, saltier, and more fattening). Zinc is also needed for the optimum function of many hormones including insulin which is important in balancing blood sugar levels. Zinc is mostly found in the strong muscles of the body and especially in high concentrations in the white and red blood cells, skin, liver kidneys, pancreas and thyroid. Without Zinc the thyroid cannot control how quickly the body burns calories and uses energy. Some bariatric surgeries, such as gastric bypass and duodenal switch work by malabsorption, meaning that the body blocks the absorption of certain vitamins and minerals. This can result in serious nutritional deficiencies - including Zinc.
