ZINC:

A POWERFUL & NECESSARY mineral for human health

Read on to discover its ancestral benefits, hermano.

- Thread -

Yeah

Magnesium relaxes you

Iodine supports your thyroid

Selenium the liver

But... Zinc?

Besides immunity & T, Zinc is known for almost nothing else.

MASSIVE disrespect.

It’s needed for +900 body ESSENTIAL processes.

Lets see some AMAZING benefits for your mind & body.

LFG

WARNING:

Once you start getting enough Zn, you will supercharge every single cell & body process.

LESGOOO

1. COGNITION

When you’re a baby, your brain’s DNA is created by...

- Thymidine Kinase (TK)

Which is ZINC DEPENDANT, so...

If you had low Zn as a baby...

Your Brain DNA was...

Fucked.

In a study, the DNA-Brain-Synthesis in low-Zn fetus homies...

Had a 70% REDUCTION.

Man...

No wonder that Autism & ADHD are on the rise.

2. TESTOSTERONE

BROS

This is the T Boosting supp. you’ve been waiting for. Listen to this:

- Leydig Cells produce T

And ZINC

Protects them from Oxidative Stress

Which destroys the mitochondria & cell nucleus.

So, if you’re low in Zn:

Leydig Cells will do their job POORLY

Meaning less:

- TESTOSTERONE
- Sperm Quality
- Sperm Count

Even low Zn is related to Testicular Failure.

Hermano... I don’t want that for you

EAT MEAT & CACAO

3. MENSTRUATION

Your cramps are generated by PROSTAGLANDINS

- Especially the PGE2

This one causes most of your painful contractions.

Guess what?

Zinc blocks THAT prostaglandin.

Will reduce IMMENSELY your pain, hermana.

4. IMMUNITY

Deficiency in ZINC leads to a delayed response & GROWTH of:

- T Cells
- NK Cells
- Antibodies
- B Cells

And will increase your inflammation (IL-6 & IL-2)

AKA: the only thing that can make the “dEAdLy”

And it greatly lowers...

- PHAGOCYTOSIS

Where WBCs “eat” (kills) a pathogen

What a cool way to kill ngl

Bro (or sis)...

Do you realize how fucked is your immunity without ZINC?

It’s like a lambo.

Without motor.

And wheels.

FUEL IT WITH MEAT

5. PREGNANCY

Your breasts will grow after birth for BREASTFEEDING

That only occurs thanks to “MMP enzymes”:

- MMP3 & 7 expands
- And 2, 3 & 11 contracts

You guess it.

They’re ZINC dependent enzymes.

They can’t work without it.

Low Zn will cause abnormal “remodeling”

Ma’am, that ain't cool.

EAT MORE MEAT & cacao :-)

6. DIGESTION

Your digestive enzymes are produced by...

- Pancreatic “ACINAR CELLS”

Without em, you wouldn’t absorb any nutrient.

Guess what homie

ZINC activates those cells

Without Zn...

Digestive Enzymes aren’t secreted nor activated very efficiently.

Meaning that

Your digestion will be shit.

7. RADIANT HAIR

Zn is KEY for grow, repair & maintenance of any body tissue

And your hair...

Isn’t the goddamn exception.

Zn CREATES & maintains the sebum in your hair.

Therefore,

It’ll keep it shining bebeeee

8. ACNE

Zn balances:

- Testosterone
- Estrogen
- Thyroid
- Cortisol

In excess, they’ll trigger your sebaceous glands.

AKA: Your pimples bro

BEEF UP ON ZINC

Those were 8 ANCESTRAL ZINC BENEFITS

You realize how your overall health is fucked without Zinc?

Hermanos...

Eat more Meat, Cacao, Seafood & Pumpkin seeds.

btw, eat them DAILY

your body can’t store zinc
