How it works
Zinc is a critical nutrient that helps your body fight off infections and heal wounds. Your body does not store zinc, so you need a consistent daily intake from food or supplements. The chelated form in this product is designed to be more easily absorbed by your body compared to other forms of zinc [NIH ODS].

Our recommendation
If you are considering VitaCeutical Labs Chelated Zinc 30 mg, start with one capsule daily with food to minimize stomach upset. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Because zinc can interact with certain medications, including antibiotics and diuretics, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement [NIH ODS].
