Zinc is an essential mineral, i.e. it is not synthesised by our body, and is required for the metabolic activity of 300 of the body's enzymes and is considered essential for cell division and the synthesis of DNA and proteins. These enzymes are involved in the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, fats and alcohol. Zinc has the task of regulating the production of T-cells or lymphocytes, hepatoprotective function, and support for prostate health. It is essential for the proper maintenance of the reproductive organ.

CHELATED ZINC PRO 30 is composed of zinc gluconate in chelated form, the most assimilable form available. It contains a high amount of zinc (30 mg per capsule), making it a highly potent and effective product.
