Zinc is an essential mineral found in all organs, tissues, and fluids in the body. As the second most abundant trace mineral in the body after iron, it plays a pivotal role in a variety of biological processes. Zinc is required for the catalytic activity of more than 300 enzymes involved in the synthesis and metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, nucleic acids, and other nutrients. Zinc also plays roles in stabilizing cell and organ structures, immune function, wound healing, cell division, growth, blood clotting, thyroid function, vision, taste, smell, and more. Because it plays such a critical role in the immune system, zinc deficiency contributes significantly to the global burden of disease, making it a major public health issue.

I've been using this zinc suppplement for many years, and it is quite effective. The only negative is that it leaves a metallic taste in your mouth.

Love that this natural zinc bisglycinate chelate is the most absorbable form of zinc you can take. Highly recommend.

This zinc has just the right amount at 30mg. Zinc Bisglycinate absorbs well and it is doing a very good job of keeping my immune system strong. I take it with Quercetin and have not become infected with Covid-19.
