Liquid Ionic Zinc

New Beginnings Nutritionals offers an ultra concentrated blend of ionic liquid zinc that mixes easily into water or juice. Ionized minerals are very bio-available because they are easily recognized and absorbed by the body, which results in better utilization and assimilation into the cells. The body's ability to utilize a mineral is primarily a matter of size and solubility. If the mineral particles can be reduced down small enough, they can then be absorbed by the body without the need for them to be broken down into a less usable form through the process of digestion. The most important issue for absorption of a mineral is making sure it is in its ionic form. The dominant factor is that the mineral must be freed from whatever matrix it is contained within so it can be recognized and taken up by the body. Being in its ionic form helps the body recognize and utilize the minerals. Zinc is necessary for the proper functioning of the immune system and this essential trace element is required for the activity of over 300 enzymes and is involved in most major metabolic pathways. The immune system depends on zinc in almost every aspect. Zinc deficiency can be common in children with special needs and immune dysfunction. Zinc bolsters the immune system and makes wounds heal faster. It is integral to the growth and maintenance of body tissues and it plays a major role in the development of fetuses and the growth of children. General signs of zinc deficiency are sleep disturbances, diarrhea, poor appetite, unhealthy skin, behavioral problems, inability to heal wounds and chronic infections.
