Are you sure you’re getting enough Zinc in your diet?
Our soils today are less likely to contain this essential mineral so it’s hard to be sure if we’re getting enough every day. We consider it one of our essential supplements.
Because zinc affects so many systems in the body, there is no single distinct symptom of zinc deficiency. According the the NHS some of the common symptoms can include:
- Decreased sense of smell and taste
- Poor wound healing
- Hair loss
- Roughening of skin/rashes
- and many more
Essential for growth and healing
Zinc is a component of over 200 enzymes and is the most prevalent trace mineral in the body. Not only is it essential for growth, it’s also important for healing and promotes healthy nervous system and brain health.
It has even been said that having sufficient levels of Zinc in the body can help you cope with stress better - something that is more important than ever in our fast-paced, stressful world.
Five times the nutritional reference value
Our Zinc formula is extremely potent, offering five times the Nutritional Reference Value (NRV) hence the name. Primal Living Zinc has 50mg per tablet, which is 500% of your NRV.
We often believe the NRVs are rather understated, and we would rather take a belts and braces approach to crucial vitamins and minerals – especially one as important as Zinc!
Suitable for vegetarians and vegans
By not including preservatives such as lactose and other animal-based ingredients, our Zinc supplements are suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.
