Vibrant Health – A Man’s Zinc

With one exception, men and women have about the same amounts of zinc in all of their body tissues, except for the skin. The male prostate gland contains and consumes more zinc than any other tissue in the body — anywhere from 4 to 80 times more, depending on which tissue is being compared to the prostate gland. Zinc in a man’s diet is specifically designed to promote prostate health, bone health, and tissue integrity.
