Zinc Picolinate, 15mg, Pure Encapsulation, 60’s

£12.99

Zinc functions as a cofactor in more than 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, including those linked with digestion, metabolism and immune function. Zinc Picolinate provides 15mg of zinc chelated to picolinate for rapid absorption and assimilation, in fact our body naturally uses picolinic acid to absorb and transport specific nutrients.

Zinc is a crucially important mineral that’s involved in ALL areas of the body, including cognitive (brain) function, immunity, hormones, bones and vision.

 

I recommend Zinc Picolinate because it is in a highly bioavailable form. 

  • Contributes to the normal function of the immune system
  • High bioavailability zinc
  • Provides 15 mg of zinc in each vegetarian capsule
  • Takes part into normal DNA synthesis and acid-base metabolism
  • Needed for normal fertility and reproduction, because it maintains normal testosterone levels in the blood
  • Contributes to the maintenance of normal hair, skin, nails and cognitive function
  • Zinc Picolinate is involved in macronutrients metabolism, normal body pH levels, regulating the acid/alkaline balance
  • Normal cell division needs zinc, which is therefore a key nutrient in wound healing

I use Pure Encapsulation because it is free from filler.

Study:

This is study on the link between high zinc level and lower covid 19 mortality rate. This is from that study: “Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the agent of a pneumonia outbreak and was called 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). COVID-19 emerged in December 2019 and now considered a pandemic. Zinc supplementation can reduce mortality in patients with severe pneumonia. This study aimed at meta-analysis of the results of related studies and evaluate the effect of zinc supplementation on COVID-19 mortality.

After assessment, scientists included five studies with 1506 participants in case and control groups in meta-analysis. The OR for one study was not estimable, and the pool OR was estimated for other studies with 1398 participants. The meta-analysis showed that zinc supplementation in cases led to a significant lower risk of mortality when it was compared with the control group; pooled OR (95% CI) was 0.57 [0.43, 0.77] (P < 0.001).

Conclusion: This meta-analysis has suggested that zinc supplementation is associated with a lower mortality rate in COVID-19 patients. Zinc supplementation could be considered as a simple way and cost benefit approach for reduction of mortality in COVID-19 patients
