Zinc – for the immune system
Zinc is a vital trace element and performs numerous functions in the body. It is a component of over 300 enzymes and is needed, for example, for the formation of specific immune cells.
Selenium – contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress
Like zinc, selenium is an essential trace element. It cannot be produced by the body and must be obtained through food. Selenium-containing enzymes are found in every cell of the body. Selenium is particularly noteworthy as a cofactor of the enzyme glutathione peroxidase. It neutralizes free radicals that can damage body cells. Selenium thus contributes to protecting cells from oxidative stress.
Vitamin D₃
Vitamin D₃ is a fat-soluble vitamin that is important for normal muscle function and maintaining healthy bones. It also regulates the activity of many immune cells and thus contributes to the normal function of the body's immune system.
How much zinc, selenium, and vitamin D₃ do you need?
The German Nutrition Society (DGE) recommends a daily intake of 20 μg (800 IU) of vitamin D₃ for adults,
zinc: women 8 mg // men 14 mg, and
selenium: women 60 μg // men 70 μg.
Vitamin D₃ is a fat-soluble vitamin that is important for normal muscle function and the maintenance of healthy bones. The best sources of zinc and selenium are animal products such as meat and dairy products, but whole grains also provide zinc and selenium. Vitamin D₃ can be obtained through food or produced by the body itself with the help of sunlight. Sufficient sunlight intensity is a prerequisite for this self-production, which is not present in Germany during the colder months. Therefore, it is particularly important in winter to supplement vitamin D₃ intake through diet.
