Zinc bisglycinate – chelated form of zinc for optimal absorption.

Zinc is a mineral essential for normal growth and development, as it is required for the activity of more than 300 enzymes involved in biochemical reactions in the body. 

However, despite its importance, our body cannot produce it, so we must obtain it through our diet.

The best sources of this mineral are animal-based foods – including red meat, seafood, eggs, and dairy products. It can also be found in other sources such as legumes, nuts, and wholegrain products. 

Yet the bioavailability of zinc from animal sources is higher than from plant-based ones, as the latter contain phytates, which bind zinc and form an insoluble complex that reduces zinc absorption in our body.

A versatile mineral we all need.

Increased needs for zinc are common among those following a (predominantly) plant-based diet, pregnant and breastfeeding women, women of childbearing age, children during growth, the elderly, as well as people with digestive issues and those who consume alcohol regularly, since alcohol inhibits zinc absorption.

Zinc is also recommended for physically active individuals, as it is one of the minerals lost through sweating.

The best choice for supporting immunity, healthy skin and hair, fertility, and metabolism.

The versatility of zinc is reflected in its many roles in the body. It contributes to:

• the normal function of the immune system - it strengthens the body's natural resistance,
• the maintenance of normal skin, hair, nails, and bones, 
• the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, 
• normal cognitive function - abilities such as thinking, cognition, and understanding,
• normal macronutrient metabolism such as carbohydrates, fats, acids, bases, and vitamin A,
• has a role in the process of cell division and contributes to normal DNA synthesis – important for children and pregnant women,
• normal fertility and reproduction,
• normal protein synthesis, 
• the maintenance of normal vision.

A daily dose provides 25 mg of this antioxidant.

In OnEnergy tablets, zinc is present in the form of zinc bisglycinate, one of the chelated forms of zinc, which means two molecules of the amino acid glycine are bound to one zinc molecule.

Thanks to this composition, zinc reaches its target in the body more effectively, offering many advantages such as:

• better absorption in the body – more zinc is utilised compared to other forms,
• gentler on the stomach and digestion – easier to digest and more resistant to stomach acid,
• fewer interactions with other minerals – does not interfere with the absorption of other minerals.
