Why Zinc? • “Some 90 percent of the population consume diets deficient in zinc,” according to Dr. Harmond M.D., Ph.D. the father of the free radical theory of aging. And even those eating adequate amounts of zinc do not always absorb it adequately. A Zinc deficiency can lead to osteoporosis, knees & hips discomfort, mental disorders, memory loss, depression, fatigue, irritability, decreased sense of taste & smell, skin problems (acne, dry skin, stretch marks, and prolonged wound healing), poor hair growth, imbalance cholesterol and glucose levels, decreased immune function, growth impairment, menstrual irregularities, fertility problems, prostate dysfunction, low testosterone levels, low sperm count and impotence.*

Zinc Picolinate • A Zinc picolinate supplement combined with vitamin C in the ascorbic acid form. Zinc picolinate is the form of zinc shown to be the most available to your body (best absorbed and utilized). Picolinic acid, a tryptophan metabolite, is a natural chelator in the body that supports mineral uptake by tissues.
• Researchers at the USDA Human Nutrition Laboratory found that adding Picolinic acid to standard diets increased the amount of zinc absorbed by the body. The research has also shown that the preferred way to increase zinc absorption is not to add picolinic acid to the diet, but to take zinc picolinate supplements. In fact, since zinc picolinate is so well utilized, the amount needed daily may be only one-third as much as normally taken for supplemental purposes.
