Product Description

Pure Encapsulations delivers 30 mg elemental zinc as zinc picolinate — a chelated form with high bioavailability. As with all Pure Encapsulations products: hypoallergenic, free from gluten, soy, magnesium stearate, and artificial additives.

What We Like

  • Zinc picolinate — one of the best-absorbed zinc forms
  • 30 mg covers 300% of the NRV — therapeutically relevant
  • Hypoallergenic formula, ideal for allergy-prone individuals
  • Pure Encapsulations quality standard

What We’re Missing

  • 30 mg long-term can deplete copper
  • No copper included as a counterbalance
  • 60 capsules = 2-month supply — relatively small bottle

Usage Recommendation

1 capsule daily with a meal. With long-term use above 25 mg zinc, monitor copper status. Do not take together with iron or calcium.
