Zinc is one of the most abundant trace minerals in our bodies. It is particularly important for the immune system, acid-base balance, and skin, hair, and nails. Since the body cannot produce it, it is especially important to get enough zinc through diet. Anyone who smokes, follows a vegetarian or vegan diet, or is exposed to increased environmental pollution should pay special attention to their intake of trace minerals, as these factors can reduce zinc absorption. If dietary intake is insufficient, supplementation is recommended. Pure Encapsulations Zinc provides well-tolerated zinc in capsule form. Bound with picolinic acid, it can be easily absorbed and utilized by the body.
