Although severe zinc deficiency is very rare in developed countries, many people (especially the elderly) have marginal zinc deficiency. Marginal zinc deficiency may be reflected by an increased susceptibility to infection, poor wound healing, decreased sense of smell or taste, and a number of minor skin disorders, including acne, eczema and psoriasis.
Some other physical findings that often correlate with low zinc status include decreased ability to see at night or with poor lighting, growth retardation, a reduction in testes size, mouth ulcers, a white coating on the tongue and marked halitosis (bad breath). Eating disorders are also associated with low zinc status. White spots on the fingernails may also reflect zinc status, correlating to poor wound healing as a result of a zinc deficiency.
Some areas where zinc supplementation may be of benefit: Acne, Alzheimer's disease, common cold, immune system enhancement, male sexual function, macular degeneration, pregnancy outcome, rheumatoid arthritis.
