High Strength, Bioavailable Zinc Tablets
Ingredients in MetaZinc have been shown to or may:
- Support healthy immune system function: Zinc deficiency can affect the healthy functioning of cells necessary for normal immune function, particularly the T lymphocytes which require zinc for numerous processes. This can lead to reduced antibody production and compromised cellular function of the innate immune system, including alteration of natural killer cell activity, phagocytosis and the generation of oxidative burst. These alterations are considered to be important contributors to increased susceptibility to infections.
- Assist in the management of mild acne at acute dose and minor wound healing: Zinc and manganese both play crucial roles in wound healing and connective tissue repair due to collagen synthesis. Key mechanisms of zinc in acne management include anti-inflammatory effect on granulocytes, regulation of androgen metabolism and retinol-binding protein synthesis.
- Support healthy sperm function: Adequate zinc status is essential for optimising male reproductive health. Zinc is required to support testosterone production and spermatogenesis. Oxidative stress may cause structural damage to sperm DNA, reduced sperm motility and defective sperm membrane integrity. The antioxidant action of zinc, due to its membrane stabilising activity, may inhibit lipid peroxidation of sperm and prevent against free radical damage.
- Contains easily absorbed, low nausea, Meta Zn® with manganese and activated B6: Zinc bisglycinate is absorbed intact and not ionised like other forms of zinc, resulting in less side effects such as nausea, commonly experienced with zinc supplementation.
- High strength tablet with a break bar to allow for flexible dosing.
