Zinc – Important for numerous body functions

Zinc is one of the essential trace elements and is involved in numerous enzymatic processes.

It plays an important role in the normal function of the immune system, cell division, and the metabolism of carbohydrates, fatty acids, and proteins.

Zinc also contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, hair, nails, and vision.

Since the body cannot produce zinc itself and has only limited stores, regular intake through diet is important.

Zinc supply and diet

Zinc occurs naturally in meat, fish, dairy products, nuts, whole grains, and legumes.

The absorption of zinc can be influenced by certain dietary components. Phytates, in particular, which are found in grains and legumes, among other things, can reduce zinc absorption in the intestine.

Therefore, adequate zinc supply should be ensured in vegetarian or vegan diets.

Pure Encapsulations® Zinc Complex combines three selected zinc compounds:

• Zinc picolinate: Organic compound of zinc and picolinic acid with good bioavailability.

• Zinc citrate: Zinc compound with citric acid that can be well absorbed by the body.

• Zinc gluconate: Organic zinc compound that is commonly used in dietary supplements.

The combination enables targeted supplementation of the zinc supply in tested quality.

Important information

Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a balanced, varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.

Do not exceed the recommended daily intake. Keep out of reach of young children and store in a cool, dry place.

Zinc can impair the absorption of certain medications, especially some antibiotics. Appropriate intervals between doses should be observed.
