This week on Vital Mentality Radio we have a look at Zinc & what it's role is in the body, how zinc deficiencies present, how zinc supplements are made & why wholefood supplementation may be the better way to go. I also discuss the principles of Naturopathy & whether or not modern day natural medicine has lost it's way.
