this is interesting zinc has the ability to  starve off deadly bacteria we’re talking about  

streptococcus pneumonia and this was published  in the journal of nature chemical biology now  

normally this bacteria streptococcus pneumonia  lives a part of our friendly bacteria as a normal  

bacteria it’s not pathogenic unless certain  conditions occur but it lives in our sinuses  

it lives in our throat and it’s perfectly friendly  until it becomes pathogenic especially when you’re  

zinc deficient and you’re going through stress so  when your immune system is compromised when you’re  

nutritionally deficient when you’re stressed  out when you have hiv tha t’s when this microbe  

flips over to become pathogenic and this is wild but this bacteria actually kills a million people  

a year from pneumonia and meningitis a million  people and you’re going to find out just with a  

little bit of zinc it could be totally prevented  okay now what does zinc do to this bacteria  

well this bacteria is dependent on another  mineral called manganese manganese allows  

for transportation okay it’s dependent on  this little transporter like a little car  

so zinc goes in there and locks up the key so  manganese cannot get in there anymore making  

this transporter unavailable for this bacteria  not to mention other things that zinc will do to  

bacteria but this is a very powerful one so it’s  very very important that people get enough zinc in  

their diet a zinc deficiency is probably one of  the top nutritional deficiencies on this planet  

primarily because of how much cereal that we  consume because grains have phytic acid that block  

zinc so you would want to avoid things with phytic  acid i put a link down below of a video that i  

just did on that also on the diet to get zinc you  need red meat or shellfish or fish if you’re a  

vegan chances are you’re going to be deficient  in zinc due to the quantities of phytic acid  

now if you also have gut inflammation or any type  of gut issues you’re going to have a difficult  

time absorbing zinc and so it’s just amazing  to me of how this trace mineral needed in very  

trace amounts very small amounts can create so  much health and can prevent so much destruction  

hey before you go real quick i have a course  entitled how to bulletproof your immune system  

it’s a free course i want you to take it and  here’s why here’s you here is your environment  

everyone is focused on this over here  avoiding your environment but what about here  

what about strengthening your immune system  that’s what’s missing this course will show  

you how to bulletproof yourself and so you can  tolerate and resist your environment much better  

by strengthening your own immune system i put  a link down in the description right down below
