Why choose Zinc Picolinate?
Zinc is a vital mineral for keeping us healthy and is involved in over 300 reactions in the body. We've chosen to use the picolinate form of zinc as it is a highly absorbable form meaning it's easier for your body to absorb than other forms and can get to work quicker. Zinc is chelated (joined) to picolinic acid, which our bodies naturally use to absorb and transport certain minerals.

Vitamin C has been added to further support the function of the immune system as well as zinc.

What does zinc do?
Zinc is a crucially important mineral involved in a wide range of functions in the body. Our bodies need enough zinc for our immune system to function normally. It contributes to the normal maintenance of bones, hair, nails and skin and it is needed for normal vision. It also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, important for supporting a healthy ageing process. Zinc supports wound healing as it plays an active role in normal cell division in the body. Normal cognitive function also requires zinc.

Zinc is involved in normal carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism, supporting the breakdown of these nutrients so they can be utilised. For example, the carbohydrates we eat are broken down to provide a source of energy for our cells. Zinc is also essential for normal pH levels within the body, playing a role in the acid/alkaline balance.

How does zinc provide fertility support?
Hormones, fertility and reproduction will not work properly without zinc. The reproductive organs cannot grow and develop; DNA synthesis and the division of cells aren't possible without zinc. Zinc is essential for normal testosterone levels in the blood. Men often have a higher need for zinc.

Do I need to supplement copper at the same time as zinc?
A high daily intake of zinc may lead to a decrease in copper status, because high intakes of zinc can interfere with copper absorption. Reductions in markers of copper status have been seen with zinc intakes of around 60mg/day for around 10 weeks. If you wish to supplement high levels of zinc long term you may need to consider including some copper in your protocol.

How long before I feel an effect?
People take zinc for all sorts of reasons, including supporting immunity, reproduction, skin, hair and nails, and vision. Depending on the reason for taking it, as well as your zinc status, some may notice a difference within a couple of weeks. For others, it may take longer for the effects to be noticeable. Symtoms of zinc deficiency such as frequent symptoms of the common cold, delayed wound healing, abnormal taste/smell sensation and loss of appetite may improve once zinc levels are elevated into the normal range.

The amount of time to rectify deficiencies will depend on the level of deficiency, however it can take 3-4 months of 20-30mg daily zinc supplementation to rectify a deficiency. For long-term deficiency, this may take up to 6 months.
