Best Zinc I’ve Found
30 mg zinc per capsule in a form that is absorbed better is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Works well and will buy this brand again.
Zinc Works!
I’ve been taking zinc for years in a multivitamin but the dose was very small. Even most of the zinc lozenges or pills come only in a 10 or a 15 mg dose. I’ve been a customer of Pure Prescriptions for years and was delighted to find that they offer a high potency 30 mg zinc that is a high quality form. Fast free shipping and always great customer service.
Good Stuff
Love that Pure Prescriptions started to make a Zinc. As a customer of theirs for the last 10 years or so, I know I can trust their products. I currently order their Ultimate Vitamin D3, Vitamin C Complex, NewGreens minted flavor and now this zinc. love the free shipping!

The Type of Zinc You Choose Is Important!
If the body has trouble absorbing a nutrient, then it can’t obtain the nutrient’s benefits.
Research shows that zinc picolinate is better absorbed than zinc citrate or zinc gluconate. Zinc Picolinate is zinc that is bound to the organic acid picolinic acid, which is naturally made in the body from the amino acid L-Tryptophan. Picolinic acid is a natural chelator that is produced as a byproduct of tryptophan in the body and helps to facilitate the mineral’s absorption.
When choosing a form of zinc that your body will absorb, choose Pure Prescriptions Zinc Picolinate in a maximum strength 30 mg capsule.
Suggested Use for Zinc:
Adults, take 1-2 capsules daily, with or without food or as directed by your health care provider.
