The common “contributes to…” descriptions on various food supplements are due to the fact that in Sweden you are not allowed to make almost any health claims at all. However, Helhetshälsa has put together a really good and comprehensive (though not exhaustive, of course) list of what zinc does in the body:

– Zinc contributes to normal acid-base balance.
– Zinc helps to maintain normal bone structure.
– Zinc contributes to the normal metabolism of macronutrients (i.e. carbohydrates, fat and protein).
– Zinc contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system.
– Zinc helps to maintain normal hair, skin and nails.
– Zinc contributes to normal fertility and reproduction.
– Zinc has a role in the cell division process.
– Zinc contributes to normal DNA synthesis.
– Zinc helps to maintain normal testosterone levels in the blood.
– Zinc helps to protect cells against oxidative stress.
– Zinc helps to maintain normal vision.
