Description

Zinc is a trace mineral, present in our bodies at a level of 2 to 3 grams. Most zinc is stored in muscles and bones.
Essential for many biological processes, it is involved in over a hundred different enzymatic reactions. This function makes zinc crucial in the synthesis of DNA, proteins, certain hormones (testosterone and insulin), and in the fight against oxidative stress. Zinc is also involved in immune, cognitive, and reproductive functions, as well as in bone formation.
The percentage of zinc absorbed varies depending on the form of intake used: inorganic salts are the least assimilable forms, followed by organic salts. Chelated forms are the most bioavailable forms.
Other factors can also hinder the assimilation of zinc: competition with other minerals taken in a traditional form (chloride/sulfate/oxide of iron, copper, etc.); certain intestinal problems.
Our specialty ZINC is a dietary supplement that provides a patented form of zinc: zinc bisglycinate. Its bioavailability is superior to that of other forms (absorption 3.2 times greater than with zinc oxide and zinc picolinate).

Typical situation : Do you want to support your immune system¹, protect your skin or nails², and combat oxidative stress on a daily basis³? Our ZINC provides a highly absorbable and well-tolerated form of zinc bisglycinate to support your overall well-being, without digestive discomfort.

Did you know?
On a daily basis, zinc is distributed throughout almost all tissues of the body, but it is particularly concentrated in muscles and bones. Since the body does not have long-term zinc reserves, it is essential to maintain a regular intake, especially in cases of increased needs (stress, intense sporting activity, convalescence).

FAQ

Frequently asked questions for the product ZINC

Why take zinc?

Zinc is an essential trace mineral involved in many biological processes. It contributes to the functioning of the immune system, the protection of cells against oxidative stress, and the maintenance of normal skin, nails, and hair. It is also present in protein and DNA metabolism.
What is the best form of zinc?

Not all forms of zinc are equal in terms of absorption. Some are better absorbed by the body than others. Organic and chelated forms, such as zinc bisglycinate, are known for their optimized bioavailability.
Can you take zinc long term?

Zinc can be taken year-round or as a one-off course of treatment as needed. Long-term intake should be adapted to your diet and lifestyle. If in doubt, a healthcare professional can advise you on the ideal duration.
What time of day should I take zinc?

It is generally recommended to take zinc with a meal to promote its absorption. Some prefer it in the evening, others in the morning: the important thing is to adopt a regular intake.
What signs may indicate an increased need for zinc?

An unbalanced diet, periods of intense fatigue, or specific conditions can impact zinc intake. If you have a specific need, a healthcare professional can advise you.
Is zinc suitable for everyone?

Zinc is essential for the body, but it is important to adhere to recommended intakes. Certain medications or specific conditions require medical advice before taking it.
Does zinc have an impact on skin and hair?

Zinc is known to contribute to the maintenance of normal skin, nails, and hair. It is often used in skincare routines for its role in protecting cells from oxidative stress.
Can you be zinc deficient even with a balanced diet?

Certain factors can influence zinc absorption, such as the presence of phytic acids in the diet (whole grains, legumes) or a low intake of animal protein. In some cases, supplementation may be considered.
Can zinc interact with other nutrients?

Yes, some minerals like copper and iron can compete with zinc for intestinal absorption. Therefore, it's best to choose a form that's well absorbed.
What is the ideal duration of a zinc treatment?

A zinc treatment can last between 1 and 3 months, depending on your needs. It is possible to repeat the course after a break if necessary. For proper monitoring, the advice of a healthcare professional is recommended.
