2 Lidocaine
UNII 98PI200987 - LIDOCAINE

3 Zinc
UNII SOI2LOH54Z - ZINC OXIDE

Zinc blocks the intestinal absorption of copper from the diet and the reabsorption of endogenously secreted copper. Zinc induces the production of metallothionein in the enterocyte, a protein that binds copper thereby preventing its transfer into the blood. The bound copper is then eliminated in the stool following desquamation of the intestinal cells.
