Zinc Glycinate is a premium organic zinc compound produced through the precise chelation of zinc with glycine, a vital amino acid. Engineered for superior bioavailability, this chelated form protects zinc ions from degradation by gastric acids, ensuring a significantly higher absorption rate in the intestines compared to inorganic salts, making it an ideal choice for high-performance nutritional supplements.
By combining the essential trace mineral zinc with the immune-supporting properties of glycine, this product provides a synergistic effect that promotes cellular health, immune modulation, and protein synthesis. Whether used in animal feed additives or human health supplements, Zinc Glycinate offers a gentle, non-irritating solution for correcting zinc deficiencies and enhancing overall physiological function.

Frequently Asked Questions
Zinc Glycinate is a chelated form, meaning the zinc is bonded to glycine. This prevents it from reacting with other nutrients in the gut, resulting in 20-30% higher absorption and significantly lower gastrointestinal irritation compared to Zinc Sulfate.
The general upper limit for adults is 40mg per day. Long-term excessive intake may lead to copper deficiency, so it is recommended to pair with copper supplements if using high doses over an extended period.
It is advised to avoid concurrent use. High doses of calcium and iron can compete for the same absorption pathways. We recommend spacing these supplements by at least 2 hours.
In men, it helps boost sperm motility and testosterone levels. In women, it assists in regulating menstrual cycles and managing hormone imbalances associated with PCOS.
High-risk groups include vegetarians, pregnant/lactating women, the elderly, and individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes or kidney disease where zinc loss is increased.
Yes, Zinc Glycinate reduces sebum overproduction and possesses anti-inflammatory properties, which helps alleviate acne, eczema, and dermatitis symptoms.
