Transparency Index

6.9/10

Acceptable A solid standard zinc pick — especially if you're looking for a more bioavailable form over zinc oxide.

Rating breakdown

Evidence for ingredient 7.0/10

Zinc is a useful baseline nutrient for low intake, restrictive diets, or elevated needs. For the general population it is situationally useful rather than a universal must-have.

Value for money 8.0/10

€0.15 per day for 25 mg zinc bisglycinate is good value, especially at 120 servings per pack.

Product quality 7.0/10

The bisglycinate form is a plus — typically gentler on the stomach and more bioavailable than zinc oxide. German production is an additional positive.

Label honesty 8.0/10

Form and dosage are communicated transparently. The product reads as functional rather than marketing-heavy.

Third-party testing 4.0/10

No strong independent certification visible. Quality trust rests primarily on manufacturer standards, not an external audit seal.

Product Description

Fairvital uses zinc bisglycinate, a chelated form widely regarded as the sensible standard choice in supplementation. For a basic product, this is notably better than cheap zinc oxide alternatives.

What We Like

  • Bisglycinate over oxide: typically the more effective form
  • Good pack size: 120 servings
  • Fair price: solid choice without a premium markup
  • Simple formula: no unnecessary multi-complex bloat

What We’re Missing

  • 25 mg is not a low dose: not always ideal for continuous daily use without a specific reason
  • No third-party certification
  • No copper co-strategy: long-term higher zinc intake should be balanced with attention to copper levels
