Food supplement in the form of a hard capsule containing zinc in the highly absorbable organic form - zinc picolinate. Zinc is an essential mineral with a wide range of benefits, incl. supporting healthy vision, normal fertility and the reproductive system.
If you're finding it difficult to maintain good immunity, struggling with hormonal imbalances or complaining of brittle hair and nails, it's worth checking that you're getting enough zinc. Although it is a trace element - meaning that it is present in the body in small amounts - its impact on the function of individual systems cannot be overlooked. Reach for Zinc Picolinate 50 mg and convince yourself of its key properties for optimal body function.
Zinc is an essential mineral for the proper functioning of the body. It plays a significant role in many processes - from supporting immunity to regulating the endocrine system. It is an essential micronutrient at every stage of life - supporting growth and development during both pregnancy, childhood and adolescence. It is alsoinvaluable for maintaining good health in the elderly [1].
Zinc is involved in the regulation of the innate and adaptive immune response, meaning that it is crucial for the smooth functioning of the immune system. Among other things, it supports the elimination of pathogens and contributes to reducing the pro-inflammatory response. It also helps to protect cells from oxidative stress [2]. Studies have shown that zinc supplementation contributes to improved immune indices [3], and that it also influences normal ageing - zinc intake can remodel immune changes in seniors, which has a beneficial effect on the body's ageing processes [4].
The effect of zinc on the smooth functioning of the endocrine system cannot be overlooked. It helps to maintain normal reproductive functions and optimal testosterone levels in the blood. Zinc plays an important role in reproductive functions - in both men and women. It is essential at every stage of human reproduction - from the process of sperm formation and maturation to childbirth. Among other things, the element has been shown to be crucial in the initial stages of germ cell development and spermatogenesis and in fertilisation, as well as in the perinatal and neonatal periods - it is an important component during pregnancy and lactation [5].
In addition, zinc supports cognitive function, contributes to the maintenance of acid-base balance and the normal metabolism of macronutrients, carbohydrates, fatty acids and vitamin A, as well as assisting in optimal protein and DNA synthesis and influencing themaintenance of healthy bones, skin, hair and nails.
The supply of zinc with the diet is essential for maintaining a state of harmony, as the body does not have the capacity to store it. Among the best dietary sources of this micronutrient are primarily seafood (e.g. oysters, shrimps), meat (e.g. beef), fish (e.g. salmon) and eggs and dairy products. It can also be found in legumes, nuts and whole grain foods, but the bioavailability from these foods is lower than from animal products due to the phytate content, which inhibits zinc absorption [1].
The properties of zinc extend throughout the body, so that an insufficient supply is associated with the occurrence of disorders of many organs and systems. A deficiency of this macronutrient may contribute to abnormalities of the immune, nervous, reproductive and digestive systems or affect the condition of the bones and skin. The symptoms of deficiency vary according to age. Children may develop diarrhoea, loss of appetite and growth retardation. Failure to get enough zinc in the early years may also result in an increased risk of fertility problems in the future. Elderly people often experience difficulties with wound healing and changes in cognitive and psychological functions. A large group also develops taste and smell disorders [1]. In supplementing zinc deficiency, a balanced diet is key. Supplements with a well-balanced portion and bioavailable form of this micronutrient may also be helpful.

New Environmentally Friendly and Responsible Packaging
Caring for the environment and quality, we are gradually introducing new packaging. Instead of the previously used BioPET, we are now using bottles made of rPET (50% recycled plastic) and standard PET – both are fully recyclable.During the transition period, you may receive the product in different packaging variants, but we always ensure their high quality and safety.
Thank you for your understanding and for helping us care for our planet together!
