Zinc Bisglycinate

Zinc is an essential trace element that the body cannot synthesise and must therefore obtain through diet or supplementation. Present in very small amounts in tissues, it is involved in numerous fundamental biological processes, including cellular metabolism, protein synthesis and immune system function. It also has antioxidant properties that contribute to protecting cells against oxidative stress. Zinc plays a well-documented role in maintaining healthy hair and scalp, as well as contributing to the health of skin and nails. It also contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and balanced cognitive function. Zinc bisglycinate is a chelated form in which zinc is bound to two molecules of glycine, a naturally occurring amino acid. This structure significantly improves its bioavailability compared to conventional mineral forms, while ensuring excellent digestive tolerance. This form is therefore particularly suited to individuals with increased needs or those seeking to optimise their daily zinc intake.
