It's essential for immune function, reproductive health, and overall well-being. Zinc deficiency can weaken the immune system and impair reproductive function. Clinical studies show that zinc supplementation can improve overall health, reproductive health, and boost immunity. Zinc also maintains healthy skin; deficiencies often manifest as dry, damaged skin, particularly in individuals with conditions affecting zinc absorption. Furthermore, zinc possesses antioxidant properties, protecting cells from damage. Interestingly, zinc supplementation improves taste perception in 50-82% of patients experiencing taste disorders – a common symptom of zinc deficiency.
Certain populations may have insufficient or marginal zinc intake. While zinc supplements are effective for most deficiencies, not all zinc forms are equally bioavailable—meaning their absorption varies. This is crucial, especially for individuals with gastrointestinal issues, where poorly absorbed zinc supplements may be ineffective.
Zinc bisglycinate, chelated with picolinic acid (naturally occurring in the body from the amino acid L-tryptophan), offers optimal absorption. This superior bioavailability ensures zinc's full benefits are realized. Alviko-Lab's Zinc + Copper supplement provides 15mg of this highly absorbable zinc bisglycinate per capsule.
Copper is another essential mineral acting synergistically with zinc. It's vital for numerous bodily processes, including collagen production (crucial for skin elasticity and musculoskeletal health), melanin formation (affecting skin and hair pigmentation), and red blood cell production. Copper deficiency increases the risk of neoplasms. Importantly, it supports the barrier function of skin and mucous membranes, protecting against harmful microorganisms. In Alviko-Lab's Zinc + Copper supplement, copper is present as highly bioavailable copper bisglycinate.
