GMP Quality Assured

Zinc is a mineral co-factor in hundreds of enzymatic reactions related to protein and carbohydrate metabolism, RNA/DNA synthesis, and intercellular signaling. Zinc is essential to the normal function of many organs and systems within the body; supporting healthy immune, skeletal, neurological, and endocrine functions as well as a healthy prostate. Dietary bioavailability of zinc is relatively poor, so NOW® Zinc Glycinate is chelated to improve absorption and bioavailability and offered in an easy-to-swallow softgel.

Suggested use

Take 1 softgel daily with a meal.
