The Question and Answer

This trace mineral is needed to build elastin and collagen, which are important components of bones and connective tissues. This trace mineral is believed to protect bones and joints from degeneration and osteoporosis. This trace mineral is also a required cofactor for the enzyme that converts T4 to T3. Animal studies suggest that a deficiency of this trace mineral may adversely affect thyroid hormone metabolism. In addition, this trace mineral functions as an essential component of the antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase (SOD), to protect cell membranes from free radical damage. Furthermore, excess zinc may interfere with the absorption of this trace mineral, thereby increasing its requirements. What is this trace mineral?
