Thorne Zinc Bisglycinate 15mg 60 caps

Zinc is an essential micronutrient that plays a key role in growth and development, immune function, and testosterone metabolism, along with numerous other functions in the body. It is the second- most abundant mineral in the body, after iron.

Clinical studies demonstrate zinc supplementation can increase general wellness and has a beneficial impact on connective tissue, reproductive, and eye health.

Zinc Bisglycinate is absorbed intact and does not compete with other minerals for absorption in the intestinal tract. A cross-over study demonstrated supplementation with zinc in the bisglycinate form resulted in 43% higher zinc blood levels compared to zinc gluconate.

Zinc Bisglycinate is zinc bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine, a calming neurotransmitter that supports relaxation and promotes the body’s production of glutathione, an important antioxidant and cofactor in detoxification and immune functions.
