Zinc stimulates the activity of approximately 300 enzymes. Zinc also promotes immune function, taste sensitivity, protein, DNA and RNA synthesis, healthy insulin response and more.1-2 Age-related declines in immune function are associated with zinc deficiency. Certain aspects of immune function in the elderly have been found to be supported with zinc supplementation.3

Chromium plays an important role in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels in those within normal range when used as part of a healthy diet.4

Boron is an essential nutrient for supporting optimal calcium metabolism as well as healthy bones and joints.5 Boron intake may also support a healthy prostate. It's been shown to help inhibit oxidative stress and support the body’s normal use of reproductive hormones and vitamin D.6

Vanadyl sulfate is an effective form of the trace mineral vanadium. Research indicates vanadyl sulfate may support insulin response and help maintain already-healthy glucose metabolism.7,8 Research also indicates vanadium salts may help maintain already-healthy blood pressure, thyroid health and iron metabolism.9

Copper is required by the body to convert iron into a form that can be utilized by hemoglobin, and is an essential constituent of many important enzymes, including superoxide dismutase, a major cellular antioxidant. It’s also needed for normal immune function and synthesis of certain proteins.10 People who consume over 50 mg of zinc daily and/or a high level of fructose are advised to supplement their diet with 2 mg copper several times per week.11,12
