Thorne Research Zinc Picolinate

Description

Zinc is a trace mineral involved in an unusually wide range of body functions, from immune cell activity to how the body processes macronutrients. Thorne’s Zinc Picolinate uses the picolinate form specifically because it tends to be better absorbed than cheaper forms like zinc oxide.

Zinc supports a healthy immune system and plays a role in normal immune cell function.* It also contributes to healthy muscle mass, growth, and repair, and supports normal energy production from carbohydrates.* Beyond that, zinc plays a role in normal hormone production and supports the body’s antioxidant defenses.*

• Zinc picolinate for enhanced absorption*
• Available in 15 mg or 30 mg strength
• Supports a healthy immune system and normal immune cell function*
• Supports muscle repair and antioxidant defenses*

Zinc is easy to get too much of relative to other minerals, and excess intake over time can interfere with copper absorption, so it’s worth sticking to a reasonable daily amount rather than stacking multiple zinc sources. If you take antibiotics or other medications, space your zinc dose a few hours apart, and check with your provider if you’re unsure what strength is right for you.

Key ingredients: Per 1 Capsule: Zinc (as Zinc Picolinate).
