Value for money

Zinc is a mineral best known for its ability to support the immune system, and so is particularly popular during the winter months (when the immune system tends be be more challenged) and for those people who feel their immune system needs a boost.

This product is a high potency Zinc supplement, providing 333% RDA per tablet. As such, this product is likely to deliver the benefits associated with intake of the recommended daily level of Zinc, but is probably more suited to short term supplementation for those people who consider themselves to be Zinc deficient. As the level of 50mg is close to the upper limit, this is a product which is not considered appropriate for extended intake / long term use in most individuals, who can obtain Zinc from a good quality multivitamin and mineral.
