What it does

Zinc is a frontline mineral for your immune system, wound healing, and clear skin, and it's needed to make new cells and proteins throughout the body. It isn't stored in large amounts, so a steady supply keeps your defenses ready. We use the gentle bisglycinate form for better absorption and less stomach upset than zinc oxide.

The science

Zinc supports immune defence, testosterone production, wound healing, and taste and smell. Deficiency is widespread and affects cognitive and reproductive function.

Most relevant for

Immune support, hormonal or acne-prone skin, and plant-based eaters.
