Why does zinc matter?

Zinc is a trace mineral involved in many everyday functions. It supports immune function, antioxidant protection, DNA and protein synthesis, and normal carbohydrate, fatty acid, and vitamin A metabolism. It also contributes to normal skin, hair, nails, bones, vision, fertility, cognitive function, and blood testosterone levels.

What research informs Zinc Optima 15 mg?

Zinc's physiological roles are well established, including normal immune function, antioxidant protection, and maintenance of skin, hair, nails, and vision. Ingredient form can also affect absorption. One study in healthy women reported greater zinc exposure with bisglycinate than gluconate. This formula combines zinc bisglycinate and zinc mono-L-methionine sulfate; the study does not establish superiority of the finished blend.

03A bioavailability study comparing two oral formulations containing zinc (Zn bis-glycinate vs. Zn gluconate) after a single administration to twelve healthy female volunteers

Peggy Gandia, Dorothée Bour, Jean-Marc Maurette, Yves Donazzolo, Patrick Duchène, Marie Béjot, Georges Houin

International Journal for Vitamin and Nutrition Research (2007), 77(4), 243-248. DOI: 10.1024/0300-9831.77.4.243; PMID: 18271278.

A randomized crossover study in 12 healthy women compared the absorption of 15 mg of zinc as bisglycinate or gluconate. Bisglycinate was well tolerated and showed 43.4% greater oral bioavailability. The study examined a specific bisglycinate form in another preparation; its findings provide context for the glycine-chelated zinc used in this formula.

Why combine two forms of zinc?

The formula combines zinc bisglycinate, an amino acid chelate, with zinc mono-L-methionine sulfate. Both provide zinc, the product's only active nutrient.

Is 15 mg of zinc intended for daily use?

The recommended serving is one capsule daily with a meal, providing 15 mg of zinc, or 150% of the EU Nutrient Reference Value (NRV). Do not increase the amount yourself, and consider zinc from other supplements.

Why take the capsule with a meal?

Taking the capsule with a meal follows the product directions and makes the routine easy to remember. One capsule daily provides the recommended serving.

How long does one bottle last?

Each bottle contains 120 capsules, a 120-day supply at one capsule daily.

Is Zinc Optima suitable for vegans?

Yes. The product is labeled vegan and uses a pullulan capsule instead of gelatin. Each capsule provides 15 mg of zinc in two forms.

What does zinc support besides immune function?

Zinc contributes to normal skin, hair, nails, bones, vision, fertility, and cognitive function. It also helps maintain normal blood testosterone levels.

Can I combine Zinc Optima with medication or other supplements?

Ask your doctor or pharmacist before combining it with medication or other zinc-containing products. They can review your total zinc intake and appropriate timing. Do not change medication directions or exceed the recommended serving.
