Estrogen-containing contraceptives (birth control pills) are known to lower vitamin C levels in plasma and white blood cells.

Action
Zinc is an essential trace element for humans. It is a constituent of over 200 metallo-enzymes. It is found in many tissues including pancreas, liver, kidneys, lungs, muscles, bones, eyes and endocrine glands. Zinc is a mineral that helps support the proper growth and development of children. It has various roles in the human system, and participated in systemic and intracellular control and integration, and in mechanisms of the major metabolic pathways involving tissue and protein synthesis, gene expression and embryogenesis and apoptosis. Zinc is thus essential for growth, sexual maturation, sensory, cognitive and immune function.
Studies showed that zinc supplementation enhances growth of children and reduces the prevalence of common childhood infections eg, diarrhea and pneumonia. Zinc supplementation has been associated with improved motor development in low birth weight infants and was associated with better neuropsychologic functioning.
