Zinc 25 mg, 90 capsules

Zinc is one of the body's most important micronutrients and is involved in over 300 enzyme reactions. Holistic Zinc contains three organic forms:

• Zinc malate
• Zinc picolinate
• Zinc bisglycinate from Albion® – with very high bioavailability

Since the body neither stores zinc nor absorbs it efficiently from food, we need to supplement it daily. Vegetarians and people who eat a lot of grains, legumes, and nuts may have an extra need, as phytic acid inhibits absorption.

Health benefits of zinc:

• Normal metabolism of carbohydrates, fat, and protein – important for burning calories and muscle growth
• Contributes to normal sense of taste and smell, as well as saliva production
• Supports the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress
• Promotes normal cognitive function
• Maintains bones, skin, hair, and nails
• Contributes to acid-base balance and normal vision
• Supports fertility, reproduction, and normal testosterone levels

Extra benefit for those who exercise: Zinc is crucial for recovery, metabolism, and hormone balance.
