General Product Information:
Maximize zinc absorption and minimize gastrointestinal side effects. Zinc is one of the most difficult minerals to obtain and absorb, yet it is essential to the function of hundred's of the body's enzymatic reactions - DNA synthesis, cell signaling and division, growth and healing, immune function, reproductive functions, vision, and more. Even our ability to taste and smell is dependent upon adequate zinc. You'll find the highest amounts of zinc in foods like shellfish, wheat germ, seeds, and tree nuts, but these are all among the most commonly allergenic foods. It is also one of the minerals that has become more challenging to obtain from food because of intensive farming practices that do not put it back in the soil. There are also the times of increased need, such as during pregnancy, stress, infection, and wound healing. Here, supplementation is practically mandatory. But when taken in commonly available supplement forms such as zinc oxide and zinc sulfate, a lot of stomach acid is needed in order to kick start the process of zinc absorption. Otherwise, nausea and gas can occur. Pure Lab Zinc Glycinate consists of zinc bound to two molecules of glycine, the smallest amino acid. Attaching these two nutrients together results in better absorption of zinc across the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream than any other zinc compound.
