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*

Suggested Use:

Take 1 capsule one to two times daily or as recommended by your health professional.

Sebastian ★★★★★

I take the 30 mg dose with dinner and haven't had the stomach ache that plain zinc oxide gave me. The bisglycinate form really does seem gentler, and my immune system has felt solid through a rough winter.

Ryan T. ★★★★★

Three weeks in and my energy feels steadier through the afternoon, which I wasn't expecting from a mineral supplement. The 30 mg bisglycinate form is gentle on my stomach compared to the oxide I used to take, and that's been the real game-changer for me.

Benjamin G. ★★★★★

I’ve been taking this after dinner for a few weeks and actually feel a bit more grounded energy during the day. The 30 mg dose is easy to swallow and hasn’t upset my stomach, which was my main worry with other zinc forms.
