The mineral zinc plays a crucial role in a great many bodily processes, including those involved with the immune system, tissue regeneration, the digestive system, your sense of taste and smell, reproductive systems, and controlling levels of blood sugar. Up to three thousand of the tens of thousands of different proteins that make up our bodies require zinc to exist. It is a cornerstone of the process of protein synthesis and can be found primarily in muscle tissue where the majority of newly synthesized protein is needed, as well as in the blood, eyes, bones, skin, and right throughout your body.
Zinc is a powerful antioxidant. Antioxidants are needed to combat the effects of oxidants, also known as free radicals, which are a by-product of the process that releases energy from carbohydrates, protein, and fats in the body. Free radicals, left unchecked, bind to and destroy healthy tissue cells, which can lead to a myriad of health problems, including the development of cancerous tumors.
Many enzymes have zinc as a component, and some of these enzymes are responsible for critical processes such as DNA synthesis and hormone regulation. Some of these processes contribute to the proper function of the immune system, so adequate levels of zinc are important for protection from infectious diseases.
As is the case with many vitamins and minerals, zinc works in synergy with other elements in the body, sometimes supporting and being supported by other vitamins and minerals. For example, zinc is a component in the metabolizing of vitamin A and collagen, therefore zinc deficiency can lead to vitamin A deficiency.
The prostate gland in males uses more zinc than any other gland, therefore, zinc is necessary for good prostate health.
Good foods containing zinc are red meats (lamb and liver have the highest amounts), and with sufficient zinc in the soil where they are grown, whole grains, seeds, beans, nuts, and black currants.

We are currently in the process of switching labs for our formulas. This lab is FDA registered, cGMP compliant, and ISDA certified organic. Each formula is being researched and improved to have the most effective levels of ingredients to make them more efficacious to the body. We are revising the formulas by removing some ingredients that were not providing the body with a value of nutrition needed by the body and increasing the amounts of other ingredients, based on current studies, that will provide the most nutritional support. Our formulas are crafted using only the finest quality vitamins, minerals, glandulars, plant extracts, and essential oils sourced from around the world. If we wouldn’t give an ingredient to our own family, it doesn’t go into our formulas-period.
We strongly advise the regular use of a multi-vitamin to enhance overall health and address a variety of conditions. Our specifically formulated products, CHF#57C, CHF#57S, and CHF#57SP, are highly recommended to meet your nutritional needs. To ensure maximum effectiveness and absorption, it is best to take all vitamin, mineral, and herbal supplements alongside meals unless advised otherwise by a healthcare professional.
In addition to dietary supplements, we are committed to reducing your exposure to potentially harmful chemicals through our personal care line. We suggest incorporating our CHF#85 (Shampoo), CHF#86 (Conditioner), CHF#37 (Mouthwash), and CHF#38 (Toothpaste) into your daily routine to help protect your health from unnecessary chemical exposure.
