    Glossary Zinc

    essential mineral crucial for immune function and hair health

    Zinc is an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, including immune system support, wound healing, and DNA synthesis. It is also important for hair health, as it helps maintain the oil glands around hair follicles and can prevent hair loss conditions like alopecia when present in adequate amounts.
