Zinc and selenium have a complex effect on the body, modulating the activity of almost all organs and systems. Trace elements are not able to be deposited. For this reason, it is necessary to replenish them every day from the outside.
Daily requirement
Determined by age and intensity of metabolic processes:
Trace elements | For children | For adults | For athletes |
Selenium (in μg) | 20-40 | 50-65 | 200 |
Zinc (in mg) | 5-10 | 15-20 | 30 |
Zinc is abundant in mushrooms, peanuts, cocoa, pumpkin seeds and oysters.
Selenium is found in pork liver, octopus, corn, rice, peas, beans, peanuts, pistachios, wheat grains, cabbage, almonds, and walnuts.
The value of zinc and selenium for the body
Enzymatic complexes containing selenium or zinc very often directly or indirectly act on the same organs and tissues, reinforcing each other.
Zinc
According to various sources, zinc atoms are part of 200-400 enzymes that are actively involved in the functioning of the following systems:
- circulatory (including immune);
- respiratory;
- nervous (has the properties of a nootropic and neurotransmitter);
- digestive;
- reproductive, due to the stimulation of the synthesis of vitamin E (tocopherol), manifested by the activation of:
- sperm production (spermatogenesis);
- work of the prostate gland;
- synthesis of testosterone.
In addition, the trace element is responsible for the trophism of the skin and nails, having a beneficial effect on the renewal of epithelial cells and hair growth, and is a structural component of bone tissue.
Selenium
It is part of many enzyme systems that affect the course of biochemical processes:
- synthesis of fats, proteins and carbohydrates;
- metabolism of tocopherol and other vitamins;
- regulation of the work of myocytes and cardiomyocytes;
- secretion of thyroid hormones;
- the formation of tocopherol and as a result, the effect on
- spermatogenesis;
- functioning of the prostate;
- secretion of testosterone.
Both trace elements strengthen the immune system, increasing the activity of T- and B-lymphocytes, being part of antioxidant complexes that eliminate free radicals.
