How Does NSI® Zinc Gluconate / Picolinate work?Zinc is an essential trace mineral that's present in every organ, tissue and fluid in the body, with 90% found in skeletal muscle and bone. Zinc plays an important part in a number of basic functions, including DNA and protein synthesis, energy metabolism, hormone-level maintenance and regulation of appetite, taste, smell and stress levels. More than 300 enzymes require zinc for proper functioning.
Zinc also has antioxidant properties, meaning it may help protect healthy cells from the damaging effects of free radicals. It's also essential for the growth and development of the reproductive system in both men and women, and for the regulation of cell production within the immune system.
The recommended daily amount of zinc is 15 mg for adult men and women. Deficiency can occur when zinc intake is insufficient or when certain health issues, including liver and pancreatic complications, poor blood sugar health and excess alcohol consumption, trigger increased loss from the body.
Individuals who are zinc deficient tend to have weaker immune functioning. Supplementing with zinc may help enhance immune activity and protect good health during seasons or times in which proper immune function is most important. Zinc supplements are also commonly used to support skin, vision, blood sugar and bone health, and mood fluctuations that occur with women's monthly cycles.
NSI® Zinc Gluconate / Picolinate contains 50 mg of zinc as zinc gluconate and zinc picolinate, two highly absorbable forms of the mineral.
NSI® Zinc Gluconate / Picolinate is better because it:
More easily absorbed than other forms of zinc.
Delivers a high-potency dose of zinc (333% of the RDA) in a one-capsule serving.
