Zinc is an essential trace mineral that supports immune function, tissue repair, and cellular metabolism. It plays a key role in over 100 enzymatic processes, including protein synthesis, DNA production, and cell division. Zinc is especially important during growth and development, as well as for maintaining the senses of taste and smell.

Our zinc supplement provides 54 mg of highly absorbable zinc glycinate, a form designed for optimal absorption and digestive comfort. Regular intake helps maintain healthy zinc levels, crucial for immune health, tissue repair, and protection against free radical damage.

Zinc Bioavailability

Reacted Zinc is formulated with the superior amino acid chelate form, zinc glycinate, which does not ionize in the gut and therefore is not impacted by dietary factors and is absorbed at a higher rate than those formulated with zinc salt forms.

Zinc plays a crucial role in boosting immune function, maintaining healthy tissue growth, eye health, and increasing the antioxidant reserves that protect the body from free radical damage. Low zinc status has been associated with increased risk of immune challenges, skin weakness, and increased age-related visual decline.
