Zinc Methionine 25 mg
Zinc is one of the most popular trace elements in metabolism. Zinc has a complex effect on the work of the whole organism: it is necessary for the formation of new cells, synthesis of many proteins and therefore affects the condition of bones, skin, nails, hair, reproductive health of men and women, is involved in the formation of immune cells. In addition, zinc contributes to the absorption of vitamins A, C, B2, B6 and B12, indirectly affects the quality of night vision.
Zinc is present in many organs and is extremely important for their functioning:
- Brain 0,6%
- Eyes <0,01%
- Skin 4,2%
- Blood 1,5%
- Lungs 0,5%
- Heart 0,3%
- Bones 36,7%
- Liver 3,4%
- Pancreas 0,2%
- Kidneys 0,6%
- Hair and nails 0,5%
- Spleen 0,1%
- Stomach 0,5%
- Intestine 1,2%
~3 g in an adult human body
Our body does not produce zinc on its own. That’s why it is vital to ensure a sufficient level of its consumption.
The daily requirement for zinc in adults is 8-11 mg.
Modern people lack zinc
Zinc deficiency can be manifested by a weakened immune system, rapid fatigue, increased hair loss and brittle nails, impaired sense of smell and taste. Because zinc plays an important role in cell division, its deficiency slows down wound healing and reduces male sexual activity.
It is difficult to receive a sufficient amount of zinc with food
* The amount of zinc per 100 g of the product is indicated
Besides, level of zinc can be influenced by:
- Restrictive diets (e.g. vegans)
- Aging*
- Increased intake of copper in the body**
- Stress
- For women – use of birth control pills***
- Various diseases, surgeries requiring long-term recovery
- Frequent alcohol consumption
- Taking diuretic medications
- Pregnancy and breast-feeding
- Growth period in teenagers
* With age, the degree of zinc absorption decreases.
**Copper uses the same absorption pathways and binds to the same proteins as zinc. Therefore, with excessive intake, copper can compete with zinc for assimilation by the body.
*** Their intake increases the level of copper in the body and requires additional zinc.
Zinc: features of assimilation
Zinc absorption takes place in the small intestine.
16-50% – amount of zinc absorbed from food by a healthy person.
➖ Phytates* and oxalates** significantly reduce the absorption of zinc, as they form insoluble compounds with it.
➕ Some proteins, on the contrary, increase the bioavailability of zinc due to the formation of complexes of amino acids and peptides with it ***.
* Phytates (other names: phytic acid, phytin) substances contained in cereals, legumes, nuts and seeds.
** Oxalates are derivatives of oxalic acid coming from food.
*** Amino acids and peptides are the constituent units of protein molecules.
Considering the importance of zinc for health and knowledge about its digestibility, we created a new generation product with increased bioavailability – “Zinc Methionine 25 mg”.
Why is zinc methionine well absorbed?
- In this form zinc is protected from interaction with phytates and oxalates, preventing its assimilation in other forms of the compound
- The organic chelated form of the compound is highly soluble and resistant to pH changes in the gastrointestinal tract*
- Methionine promotes the absorption, transport and storage of zinc in the body.
* compared to inorganic forms of zinc
Benefits of Zinc Methionine
- Increased bioavailability due to methionine amino acid
- Strengthens immunity
- Supports healthy skin, hair, nails and brain function
GMO, soy and gluten free. Suitable for vegetarians.
