In the metabolism, the trace element is involved in the utilization of macronutrients and especially the utilization of carbohydrates. Furthermore, it supports the natural acid-base balance because it is a co-factor of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase. This enzyme is essential for regulating the acid-base balance via the kidneys.
