ZINC: Don’t forget to add zinc into your diet. Zinc helps boost your immunity and ward off infections. You’ll find it in animal products, nuts, seeds, whole grains, and tofu. Tip: Cook your zinc-rich grains and beans in the least amount of water possible and use ungalvanized cookware. Your body will absorb zinc better in a high protein meal. As a last resort, try a liquid sublingual zinc formula - absorption of the liquid takes place under your tongue where blood vessels are close to the surface of the skin. Zinc is a vital spark that's essential to keeping your body functioning normally. It is found in every cell of your body. Today, many of the processed foods we eat come up "Zinc Poor". The result could be a zinc deficiency. Our bodies need this vital mineral for cell production, protection, and healing. Scientific studies indicate that sublingual absorption of Zinc may decrease your susceptibility to viral and bacterial healing.
