Zinc Bisglycinate 15 mg
If any mineral should be nominated a super-mineral, zinc is a good contender, according to Thorne. Zinc plays a crucial role in more than 200 enzymatic reactions and is involved in growth, the immune system, healthy skin, reproduction and has many other functions in the body.
Highly absorbable
Zinc bisglycinate chelate is a highly absorbable form of zinc.
Advantages of amino acid chelates
The chelating structure in an amino acid chelate is strong enough not to be split under the influence of gastric juice or digestive enzymes, but also weak enough so that the mineral element can be liberated once it is absorbed by cells in the intestine. The amino acids fold around the mineral element, protecting it during the digestive process and not releasing it like inorganically bound minerals.
Also available in 30 mg
Thorne Zinc Bisglycinate also exists in a higher dosage of 30 mg: Zinc bisglycinate 30 mg
