Zinc Gluconate 50mg – 100 tablets – Now

Zinc Gluconate 50mg – 100 tablets – Now is a food supplement with zinc in the form of zinc gluconate. It comes in tablets for daily intake and is intended to supplement the intake of this mineral when the diet may not provide adequate amounts. In addition, the gluconate form is frequently used in supplements due to its practical use in a single dose.

What it is used for

Zinc contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and, additionally, contributes to the protection of cells from unwanted oxidation. It also contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, hair and nails. On the other hand, zinc is involved in normal DNA synthesis and in the normal metabolism of macronutrients, so it may be relevant in situations of limited dietary intake.

In general, this supplement may be considered by adults looking for a simple mineral intake. In particular, it may be of interest to people with diets that include a lower consumption of zinc-rich foods, such as meat and seafood.

Composition or Main Features

• Zinc (from zinc gluconate): 50 mg of elemental zinc per tablet.
• Once-daily intake format, which makes adherence easier.
• Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
• No added ingredients from wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, crustaceans, tree nuts or sesame. However, cross-contact may occur, as production takes place in a facility that processes allergens.
• Indicated as suitable for Kosher and Halal requirements, according to the manufacturer’s labelling.

Thus, the composition focuses on a single mineral, with no mixture with other micronutrients. However, the dose is high, so it is important to assess total daily intake.

Directions for use

Take 1 tablet per day, preferably with a meal. This may help reduce gastric discomfort in sensitive people. In addition, swallow with water and maintain a consistent daily routine.

Important information

Adult use. Not intended for prolonged use without advice. Therefore, avoid exceeding the recommended daily dose. High doses of zinc may cause nausea or discomfort when taken on an empty stomach. Likewise, continued use of high doses may interfere with copper absorption, so it may be necessary to monitor total mineral intake.

If you are taking antibiotics or thyroid medication, separate the doses to minimise absorption interactions. However, in case of illness, chronic medication, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a healthcare professional before using Zinc Gluconate 50mg – 100 tablets – Now.
