Zinc and Heart Health

Did you know Zinc can help with chest pain (angina)?

I personally will attest to the fact that it helps!

Yes. Indeed.

Not only that, but it is also helpful for many other neural aspects of the body. It can help the eyes, helps some gastrointestinal issues, and may help with parasitic diseases, lost sense of taste, and ADHD and OCD.

I like this quote: ” Zinc is used by mouth to prevent inflammation in the lining of the digestive tract…” (from: link) We all know that zinc is very important for the gastrointestinal tract, and individuals with problems in this system are often zinc-deficient.

Great article: Link

Zinc works in conjunction with the movement of calcium in heart cells. Too much calcium can contribute to heart failure and arrhythmias. (This deals with RyR2 cells, which regulate the amount of calcium in heart cells. Zinc works with RyR2 cells.)
