Simple Zinc offers chelated minerals by Albion Advanced Nutrition, the leader in mineral technology. These are ideal chelates with a 2:1 molar ratio of two molecules of the amino acid glycine chemically bonded in liquid to one mineral ion of zinc or molybdenum for optimal absorption. These minerals are combined with other nutrients such as vitamin B6 and taurine to provide superior results.
This powerful combination of ingredients in this new and improved formula helps to balance hormones and provide the best immune support as zinc is responsible for hundreds and enzymatic processes in the body. This formula contains all of the cofactors needed for optimal support for zinc to work at it’s finest!!

Simple Zinc
Zinc is involved in virtually every aspect of the immune response.* Adequate levels are essential for the healthy functioning of every cell in the body. The beneficial effects of zinc are extensive because this mineral is the body’s most abundant intracellular (i.e., inside the cells) trace element and at least 200 zinc-dependent enzymes have been identified. Some individuals are poor absorbers of this mineral, but most cases of zinc deficiency are due to poor diet, chronic stress, vegetarianism or excessive alcohol intake. Some deficiencies result from exposure to toxic metals, such as cadmium from cigarettes or excess copper from copper-lined tap water pipes.
Zinc supports the actions of specific white blood cells that work to support the body’s immune system response to various pathogens.* It is required for producing thymulin (the major thymus hormone) and therefore for the proper function of the thymus, the primary lymphoid organ where immune cells mature. A reduction of thymulin may lead to impaired immune function.
Each one-capsule serving of Simple Zinc provides 30 mg of zinc along with clinically relevant amounts of these accessory nutrients. These nutrients work with zinc to facilitate vital functions and enzymatic reactions.
