Zinc is an essential trace element. It is necessary for proper functioning of CNS, immune system, GIT and skeletal system.
Zinc is important for proper functioning of immune system. Helper T cells require zinc for activation.
Zinc also activates many enzymes that helps in wound healing, cell division and proper DNA synthesis.
Zinc is also important for taste acuity. It helps activate areas of brain responsible for taste sensations.
Zinc helps in proper physical growth of the body. It helps in tissue as well as connective tissue growth. Zinc is an important constituent of calcified matrix and enhances effects of vitamin D on bone.
So the answer is DNA synthesis, immunity, taste, bone and cartilage formation.
