Zinc Glycinate - 120 Softgels

Protocol for Life Balance Zinc Glycinate Zinc is an essential mineral that is involved in many aspects of cellular metabolism. Zinc is a key cofactor in hundreds of enzymatic reactions, and plays a critical role in protein synthesis, the maintenance of cellular structures, and cell signaling. Because of these varied functions, zinc is necessary for the maintenance of skeletal, neurological, reproductive, and immune system health. Although dietary bioavailability of zinc is relatively poor, zinc glycinate has been shown to achieve superior absorption and bioavailability.
