During digestion, it is released from food in the form of free Zn 2+ ions . These ions must be transported into the cells of the intestine and then into the circulation system and from the circulation system to the cells that need it. Two types of zinc transporters are involved in these processes: zinc-regulated transporter-like proteins (ZIP) and zinc transporters (ZnT). The uptake rate is approximately 16-50%, depending on the accompanying deficiency.<\/p>\n<p>Certain dietary factors interfere with absorption, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>excess sugar<\/li>\n<li>low protein intake<\/li>\n<li>high intake of calcium and iron<\/li>\n<li>high intakes of phytates, fibre and oxalates present in plant products.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It helps in the absorption of the presence of animal protein and amino acids and citric acid.<\/p>\n<p>The efficiency of zinc assimilation depends on the number of accompanying factors that reduce this process, namely:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>dietary errors<\/li>\n<li>vegetarian diet<\/li>\n<li>drinking alcohol<\/li>\n<li>environmental pollution<\/li>\n<li>stress<\/li>\n<li>use of highly processed products<\/li>\n<li>strenuous physical work and intensive sporting activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The demand for zinc increases during the growth period, in pregnancy and lactation.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-role-of-zinc-in-building-up-immunity\"><\/span>The role of zinc in building up immunity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Zinc acts on cells involved in both innate and adaptive immunity (e.g. monocytes, NK cells, T and B cells), influencing their survival, proliferation and maturation. The function of almost all immune cells depends on this element. The balance between different subsets of T helper cells and T cell function depends on levels of this micronutrient. In addition, the maturation and differentiation of T cells in the thymus largely depends on zinc. Zinc ions are recognised as inhibitors of protein phosphatases, which ultimately prolongs immune cell signalling and enhances immune responses. It influences antibody production, lymphocyte differentiation and inflammatory signalling. It is not surprising that zinc supplementation is indicated to restore immune function in infectious diseases. The mineral also has direct antiviral properties (e.g. in influenza). Therefore, lozenges with the right content and form of zinc can be taken supportively to recover faster. During a cold, it can reduce the severity, frequency and duration of discomfort (up to 42% when applied topically). A meta-analysis by Tabatabaeizadeh S. suggests that zinc supplementation reduces mortality in patients with COVID-19. The element also has the potential to reduce the development of chronic infections with other viruses, e.g. HSV, HCV, by interfering with viral replication, among others. Adequate saturation of the body with zinc protects against over-reactivity of the immune system, which counteracts the development of autoimmunity or allergy.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3056\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3056\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3056\" src=\"https:\/\/xenico.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/rola-cynku-w-budowaniu-odpornosci3.jpg\" alt=\"Rola cynku w budowaniu odporno\u015bci\" width=\"600\" height=\"401\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xenico.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/rola-cynku-w-budowaniu-odpornosci3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/xenico.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/rola-cynku-w-budowaniu-odpornosci3-380x254.jpg 380w, https:\/\/xenico.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/rola-cynku-w-budowaniu-odpornosci3-240x160.jpg 240w, https:\/\/xenico.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/rola-cynku-w-budowaniu-odpornosci3-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xenico.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/rola-cynku-w-budowaniu-odpornosci3-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/xenico.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/rola-cynku-w-budowaniu-odpornosci3-600x401.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3056\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">There is an increased risk of zinc deficiency in older people, vegans\/vegetarians and people with chronic diseases (including inflammatory bowel disease).

It is estimated that approximately 30% of the elderly population has deficiencies, who are additionally at higher risk of complications accompanying infections and have a reduced immune capacity due to age.<br \/>\nMany cellular functions such as intracellular killing of harmful pathogens, maturation and function of T and B cells, production of cytokines and free radicals are impaired due to zinc deficiency. Acute deficiency causes a decrease in innate and acquired immunity, while chronic deficiency increases inflammation in the body. Immune dysfunctions caused by deficiency of this essential compound lead to various disorders at the whole body level: allergies, frequent infections, increased risk of cancer, various autoimmune diseases and chronic inflammation, which can increase insulin resistance, exacerbate depression, etc.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-to-consider-when-choosing-and-using-zinc\"><\/span>What to consider when choosing and using zinc ?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As zinc together with copper compete in the body for absorption, excessive use of one of the elements, e.g. zinc, may result in copper deficiency, as well as iron deficiency. A formulation containing a set of zinc together with copper in the right proportions will be safer for longer use. In addition, it is advisable to take intervals and check e.g. the level of alkaline phosphatase, whose level in the blood is dependent on zinc and can indirectly show at what stage of saturation the body is. Zinc in the form of citrate will be one of the best options because, as mentioned, citric acid aids the absorption of this compound. In order to avoid the potential nausea that any form of zinc can cause, it is best to supplement with a meal.<\/p>\n<p><em style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Bibliography:<\/em><br \/>\n<em style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Wessels I, Maywald M, Rink L.
