Thorne Zinc Picolinate 30mg is a highly absorbable zinc supplement that delivers 30mg of elemental zinc per capsule, bound to picolinic acid for superior bioavailability. This third-party tested formula supports immune function, healthy skin, hormone balance, and antioxidant protection, making it a clinical-grade daily mineral choice for adults across the UAE.
Why This Supplement Works
Zinc is essential to more than 200 enzymatic reactions in the body, yet many adults in the UAE fall short of optimal intake through diet alone. Picolinic acid, a natural chelating agent made in the body from L-tryptophan, binds zinc and helps escort it across the intestinal wall for efficient uptake. Research suggests zinc picolinate exhibits superior absorption compared to zinc citrate, gluconate, and oxide forms. This means more of the mineral reaches your cells, where it activates T-lymphocytes that moderate the body's inflammatory response, supports the normal production of testosterone, and helps mitigate oxidative stress that damages cells and tissues over time.
Who It's For
This supplement is ideal for adults seeking immune resilience, clearer skin, support for healthy hair and connective tissue, balanced testosterone, and general wellness. It suits athletes who lose zinc through sweat, vegetarians who may miss zinc-rich animal foods, and anyone recovering from frequent colds or low-energy spells. If you are pregnant, nursing, or taking medication, please consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement.
1. Take 1 capsule daily, or as recommended by your healthcare practitioner.
2. For best absorption, take on an empty stomach or between meals, ideally in the morning or early afternoon.
3. Avoid taking zinc with high-calcium foods, dairy, or competing minerals like iron at the same time, as these can reduce absorption.
4. Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place. If pregnant, nursing, or taking medications, consult your healthcare provider first.
Each capsule provides a precise, well-tolerated dose of zinc in its most bioavailable form:
• Zinc (as Zinc Picolinate) - 15 mg - highly absorbable chelated mineral supporting immune cells, skin, eyes, hair, nails, and reproductive health
• Free from gluten, dairy, soy, eggs, peanuts, and artificial additives
Other ingredients include microcrystalline cellulose, hypromellose (vegetable cellulose) capsule, leucine, and silicon dioxide. No unnecessary fillers, dyes, or excipients. The 15 mg dose suits daily long-term use and is well within safe upper intake limits.
