ImmunActin® Zinc Lozenges - 60 lozenges

What is zinc?
The essential trace element zinc is involved in many processes in the human organism as a component and activator of numerous enzymes. Thus, it helps in the build-up and breakdown of carbohydrates, fats and protein. It also plays a role in growth, the immune system, sexual development and fertility, as well as the sensation of taste and appetite. Zinc is also involved in the antioxidant protection system against free radicals and also supports the bones. It plays a role in mental exertion and activity, as well as in stressful situations. Since there are only limited zinc stores in the body and these can only be mobilized with difficulty in the event of an undersupply, a continuous supply through food is particularly important.

Zinc in our food
Animal products are the main suppliers of zinc. Good sources include beef, pork, poultry, seafood such as crab or lobster, eggs, milk and cheese. In general, zinc can be better absorbed from animal foods than from plant foods. When it comes to plant-based food sources of zinc, cereal products and nuts are in the foreground.

Zinc as a supplement
ImmunActin® Zinc Lozenges from NaturesPlus provides 10 mg of elemental zinc as zinc aspartate in combination with standardized extracts of echinacea, olive leaves and elderberries per lozenge. One package contains 60 cherry-flavored lozenges.
Hint:
Food supplements are not intended to be a substitute for a balanced and varied diet.
