Zinc lactate – a highly bioavailable form that is gentle on the digestive system.

Zinc is an essential trace mineral that the body cannot produce or store in significant quantities; therefore, a daily intake through diet or supplements is essential. In the body, it is involved in more than 300 enzymatic processes that regulate key biological functions, from DNA synthesis and cell division to the metabolism of macronutrients.

Its role is indispensable for the functioning of the immune system, as it promotes the development of immune cells, whilst also being crucial for maintaining healthy skin, hair and nails, and for faster tissue repair.

The richest natural sources of zinc are oysters, red meat, poultry and eggs. It is also found in pumpkin seeds, nuts and pulses, but its bioavailability from plant sources is lower due to the presence of phytates, which inhibit its absorption in the gut.

A versatile mineral – supporting the immune system, fertility, skin, eyesight …

Zinc is classified as an antioxidant, as it contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, which means it helps to neutralise free radicals – unstable molecules that cause damage to cellular structures (DNA, proteins and fats).

However, its roles do not end there, as it also contributes to:

• the normal function of the immune system,
• the maintenance of normal skin, hair, nails, and bones, 
• the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, 
• normal fertility and reproduction,
• normal macronutrient metabolism (carbohydrates, fats, acids, bases, vitamin A),
• normal protein synthesis, 
• normal cognitive function, 
• the maintenance of normal vision,
• cell division and normal DNA synthesis.

With every capsule, you provide your body with as much as 15 mg of zinc a day.

OnEnergy capsules contain zinc in the form of lactate – an organic form of zinc formed by binding zinc to lactic acid.

In the world of dietary supplements, it is considered one of the most highly regarded forms, primarily due to the following advantages:

• High bioavailability and solubility: Thanks to its excellent solubility in water, zinc lactate is absorbed more quickly and efficiently through the intestinal mucosa, ensuring better utilisation compared to inorganic forms.
• Gentle on the digestive system: It is exceptionally gentle on the stomach and does not usually cause nausea or discomfort, which are common with cheaper forms of zinc.
• Natural absorption: Binding to lactic acid (lactate) enables the body to recognise and metabolise the mineral naturally, without an unpleasant metallic aftertaste.
