Zinc Picolinate 30 mg – 180 Servings

Description

Zinc is an essential micronutrient involved in many vital processes, including growth and development, immune system support, and testosterone metabolism. It is the second most abundant trace mineral in the body after iron.

Clinical research shows that zinc picolinate is more readily absorbed than forms such as zinc citrate and zinc gluconate, with higher levels of zinc detected in tissues like red blood cells, urine, and hair during supplementation. Zinc picolinate is formed by binding zinc to picolinic acid, a compound derived in the body from the amino acid tryptophan, which helps enhance zinc absorption in the small intestine.

Thorne offers two highly absorbable zinc forms: zinc picolinate and zinc bisglycinate. While both are better absorbed than zinc citrate, gluconate, and oxide forms, some studies suggest zinc bisglycinate may have slightly higher bioavailability. However, zinc picolinate has a longer history of clinical use and research support.
