Zinc is an essential micronutrient—the second most abundant trace mineral in the body after iron—playing a key role in growth and development, immune function, and testosterone metabolism, among many other functions. Thorne's Zinc Picolinate 30 mg binds zinc to picolinic acid, a compound the body naturally produces from the amino acid tryptophan, which facilitates zinc absorption in the small intestine. Clinical studies show zinc picolinate is absorbed significantly better than zinc citrate or zinc gluconate, resulting in higher zinc levels in hair, urine, and red blood cells.
This formula supports the development and function of immune cells, helps maintain T-cell function to balance the body's inflammatory response during times of immune stress, and helps protect cells against oxidative stress. It also promotes cellular skin repair, provides essential support for eye health, and supports the body's normal testosterone production to help maintain lean muscle mass.
