Zinc is in the partypacks because excessive sweating during all
night dancing sessions can cause a loss of as much as 3 mg of
zinc per day. Also, new studies indicate its importance in brain
function and the treatment of schizophrenia. Any extra physical
or mental demands made on the body can increase the need for
zinc or cause our bodies to lose extra zinc. If you are taking
extra amounts of vitamin B6, or drink alcohol, or are diabetic

Zinc also contributes to energy production and its mild
deficiency can lead to easy fatigue. In one experimental study

improved strength and endurance of leg muscles in fit young
men1. None of the subjects showed signs of zinc deficiency but
the extra mineral did exert beneficial effects.
