Zinc Plus

Most products use a single form of zinc in large quantities. In Zinc Plus, we combine OptiZinc® (zinc mono-L-methionine) and picolinate, two complementary forms that promote high tolerance and absorption, allowing us to ensure an adequate supply of this mineral in the body.  At the same time, the dosage used is ideal for amply covering the numerous functions of zinc without falling into the risks of excessive doses. Finally, the addition of copper prevents the continued intake of zinc from interfering with the assimilation of this other key mineral, thus maintaining the perfect physiological mineral balance.

The combination of OptiZinc® and picolinate allows for the integration of two complementary strategies to promote zinc availability: on one hand, the stability and protection of the complex; and on the other, maintaining zinc soluble and available in the gastrointestinal tract. All of this allows for adequate absorption and bioavailability, ensuring the proper zinc status for  the maintenance of skin, hair, and nails under normal conditions, for the normal functioning of the immune system, and for the protection of cells against oxidative damage.

Because zinc and copper share absorption pathways and compete at the intestinal level. In the medium to long term, a high and continuous intake of zinc without copper can interfere with the assimilation of the latter. Here, we aim not only to provide zinc but also to maintain the body's physiological mineral balance, which is key for continued and safe use.

Because quantity does not equate to absorption. The oxide form may provide many milligrams on the label, but its bioavailability in the body is lower. In Zinc Plus, we prioritize forms with better absorption and actual tolerance, not just a high number on the packaging.

It depends on your wellness goals:

• For skin, hair, and nail care: Changes are usually noticeable in 4-8 weeks, accompanying the natural cell renewal cycle, as zinc contributes to the maintenance of skin, hair, and nails under normal conditions.
• For immune support: The ideal approach, especially during periods of higher demand, is to provide this mineral continuously over time to ensure the normal functioning of the immune system in your daily life.

It can be taken continuously if the dose is adequate and the formula is well-balanced (as in this case, by including copper). However, if you are looking for it for strategic intensive skin care or to support your defenses during autumn-winter periods, you can take it in cycles. On the other hand, during times of high demand (such as for people with a high volume of physical training, growth stages, or people with low intake of zinc-rich foods in their usual diet), continuous use is an excellent option. It's not so much about mandatory breaks, but about understanding your own needs.

Because we seek the perfect balance between efficacy and tolerability:

• 10 mg → May fall short in contexts of high demand, significant physical exertion, or limited diets.
• 50 mg → Is a useful dose under professional recommendation for very specific needs, but it is not ideal for general or maintenance use.
• 25 mg → Is the effective intermediate point, well-tolerated and sustainable over time for most people.

Furthermore, the key lies not only in the dose, but in the chemical form (OptiZinc® + picolinate) and the balance with copper. As we always say: more is not better, better is better.
