Hair loss
Both men and women worry about excessive hair loss, baldness in men and thinning and rat tail hair in women.
One of the main causes of hair loss is zinc deficiency.
Eye problems
Eye related problems occur when zinc deficiency occurs in the body.
In particular, problems such as dryness in the eyes and damage to the optic nerve will occur.
Taste and smell
Zinc deficiency can cause major damage to the nervous system.
In particular, the taste buds in the tongue and the fine nerve cells in the nose are affected.
Due to this, the taste of foods may become numb to the tongue. Likewise, the smell of food and scented objects may be obscured. The taste and smell will spoil.
Wound healing
We have heard that diabetics usually take days to heal from any injuries they get.
But even when zinc deficiency occurs in the body, wounds do not heal quickly. It takes long days.
Infections
Most foods rich in zinc are rich in anti-inflammatory properties.
Zinc deficiency not only causes infections in the body, but also causes frequent infections.
Indigestion
As important as fiber is for digestive energy and preventing constipation, so is zinc.
When zinc is deficient in the body it slows down bowel movements. This affects the digestive power and causes indigestion.
Nervous disorders
Zinc deficiency can severely affect the nervous system.
Blood flow can be obstructed, especially in the veins leading to the brain.
This can cause problems like epilepsy and tremors.
