Zinc Bisglycinate 30 mg

Thorne Zinc Bisglycinate 30 mg provides zinc bound to two molecules of glycine, forming a true amino acid chelate designed for enhanced absorption. As part of a daily wellness routine, it supports immune function, connective tissue health, and more than 200 enzymatic processes the body relies on.

If there were a super mineral, then zinc would be a contender. Zinc is an essential micronutrient that is crucial to more than 200 enzymatic reactions, and it plays a key role in growth, immune function, testosterone metabolism, and numerous other functions in your body.*

Clinical studies demonstrate zinc supplementation increases general wellness and has a beneficial impact on connective tissue, as well as reproductive and eye health.*

If the body has trouble absorbing a nutrient, then it can't obtain the nutrient’s benefits. Thorne offers two highly absorbable forms of zinc:  Zinc Picolinate and Zinc Bisglycinate.  Zinc Picolinate is zinc that is bound to the organic acid picolinic acid, which is naturally made in the body from the amino acid L-Tryptophan. Zinc Bisglycinate is zinc that is bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine – creating a true amino acid chelate. 

Benefits of Thorne’s zinc supplement suite:

• Zinc is necessary for the development and function of the cells related to immune response*
• Zinc is essential for activating a certain group of white blood cells – called T-lymphocytes (T-cells) – that moderate the body’s inflammatory response during times of immune stress*
• Studies have found that the antioxidant-promoting properties of zinc help mitigate oxidative stress – a process that damages cells and tissues and can lead to several chronic health conditions*
• Zinc promotes healthy skin and eyes*
• Zinc supports the body's normal production of testosterone, a hormone essential for building lean muscle mass*
