so in this video i want to talk about the relationship between

zinc and your liver zinc is probably one of the most important

minerals for the liver and here’s why when you look at the symptoms from a

zinc deficiency they’re identical to the symptoms

of a liver problem and i’m talking about a liver that’s dysfunctional like if

it’s inflamed or there’s scar tissue as in cirrhosis

when people have a liver problem they usually get loss of appetite the

loss of body hair altered taste and smell now it could be

because you’re deficient in zinc testicular

atrophy your immune system is impaired you have

decreased ability to detoxify drugs from your body you can get ascites

you have this protruded stomach because the liver is leaking fluid

into a sac around the stomach a deficiency of zinc can increase your

risk for liver cancer inflammation in the liver

and a lot of skin problems the question is is it the chicken of the egg

does a zinc deficiency cause the liver to create these symptoms or is it the

liver damage that’s creating these symptoms

as well as creating a zinc deficiency well that’s very hard to tell because

we do know in an isolated situation the zinc deficiency for example

will create low testosterone and testicular atrophy

but if the liver is damaged you’re not going to be able to get rid of estrogen

and you’re going to get high levels of estrogen which is indirectly going to

cause a low testosterone situation what we do

know is all these symptoms right here could

be a zinc deficiency or it could be a

problem with your liver and by getting more zinc in your diet or

taking it in the supplement form you can reduce these symptoms right here

and even sometimes prevent them as well as protect the

liver if you’re not familiar with what foods

are high in zinc shellfish is at the top of the list beef

liver beef in general lamb other meats

seeds nuts dairy products eggs there is zinc in whole wheat but

the problem is the bran in wheat products prevents the

absorption of zinc because it has something called

phytates so of course to get the zinc you want to avoid

all grains as well as sugar because when you consume

sugar you deplete zinc unfortunately a lot of people have a zinc deficiency and

they don’t know it we don’t retain zinc very well

if you’re not consuming zinc from the diet chances are you’re going to be

somewhat deficient and it’s going to start on a gradient

and you may not even notice a full-blown deficiency until later because some of

the subclinical or subtle signs of a zinc

deficiency could be like fatigue and weakness and

lethargy that you may associate with something else

if you have any liver problem or any attention that you potentially could

have a liver problem make sure you have enough zinc in your

diet because that’s very very important if not the most important mineral

to support a healthy liver
