Zinc Supplements
Our Naturopaths Say
Zinc is an essential mineral for the human body, as it is necessary for a variety of physiological processes. It is involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, and is necessary for the production of DNA and RNA, the body's genetic material. Zinc is also important for the functioning of the immune system, and is involved in wound healing and the sense of taste and smell. In addition, zinc is necessary for the proper development and function of the reproductive system. Consuming foods that are rich in zinc, such as meat, seafood, and legumes, can help ensure that the body has an adequate supply of this important mineral. Our team of accredited naturopaths can help you determine if supplementing with zinc is right for you.

More from our Naturopaths
Can zinc be taken with iron or magnesium?
Yes, but timing matters. Zinc may compete with some minerals like iron and magnesium for absorption, so some people prefer to take them at different times of the day for best uptake.
What form of zinc is best absorbed?
Forms such as zinc citrate, gluconate, and bisglycinate are commonly used due to their higher absorption and gentler digestive profile compared to some other forms.
Can zinc support skin issues like acne or breakouts?
Zinc is often used in skin health routines because it supports inflammation response and skin repair processes. It’s commonly included in supplements aimed at clearer skin.
