Zinc
Zinc—it's one of the abundant elements in the human body, second only to iron. We find it in our diets in meat, fish, nuts, whole grains and legumes. It stimulates enzymatic activity; is essential to immune defense functions; and plays a role in cell division, which makes it vital for growth and development. Zinc is as biologically versatile and important to human health as just about any other nutrient you can name. And when it comes to winter wellness, zinc defends like no other.
Unlike other dietary supplements that can be equally effective in various forms, zinc is most effective for immune support when taken as zinc acetate in the form of an oral-dissolving lozenge. Comparisons have found up to 50% better results with zinc acetate versus other zinc salts. It is believed that this is due to the fact that acetate does not bind chemically to zinc ions, allowing for more free ions to be released.
Swanson Premium Advanced Zinc Acetate Lozenges are naturally flavored, sugar free, and guaranteed to deliver 18.75 mg of elemental zinc for effective immune support at an affordable price.
