Metabolics Zinc Picolinate

What is Metabolics Zinc Picolinate?

Metabolics Zinc Picolinate is a highly bioavailable form of zinc. Zinc picolinate is easily dissolved in the body, allowing for efficient absorption and utilisation. Zinc picolinate is a form of zinc bound to picolinic acid, a natural chelator that may aid absorption by facilitating zinc transport across the intestinal wall.

Zinc is an essential mineral that plays a vital role in immune function, skin health, cognitive performance, and metabolism. While it is found in a variety of foods, supplementation may be beneficial for those with higher zinc needs or individuals who struggle to obtain sufficient amounts from their diet.

Zinc is naturally found in various foods, including:
Animal-Based Sources - Meat, shellfish, dairy, and eggs (better absorbed)
Plant-Based Sources - Legumes, seeds, nuts, and whole grains

Zinc from animal sources is absorbed more efficiently than from plant-based foods due to phytates, which inhibit zinc absorption. Fermenting, soaking, or sprouting grains and legumes can help improve absorption.

Who is Metabolics Zinc Picolinate For?

This supplement is ideal for individuals who:

Want support with overall zinc levels
Seek a highly bioavailable source of zinc
Want to support immune, skin and cognitive function
Older adults, as absorption efficiency decreases with age

Common Signs of Zinc Deficiency   

Zinc is essential for many bodily functions. A deficiency can lead to:
Frequent infections (weakened immunity)
Slow wound healing
Hair loss and brittle nails (white spots on nails)
Skin issues such as dermatitis and acne
Loss of taste or smell


Key Benefits Of Zinc

Supports Immune Function

Zinc is essential for a healthy immune system, supporting the activity of T-cells and natural killer cells. It plays a key role in inflammatory responses and helps the body fight off bacterial and viral infections. Zinc deficiency has been linked to increased susceptibility to illness and infections​.

Aids DNA Synthesis & Cell Division

Zinc is vital for DNA synthesis and cell division, crucial for growth, tissue repair, and wound healing. It ensures cells regenerate properly, supporting healthy skin, muscles, and overall body function​.

Protects Against Oxidative Damage

Zinc functions as a cofactor for antioxidant enzymes, such as superoxide dismutase, helping to neutralise free radicals. This reduces oxidative stress and protects DNA, proteins, and lipids from damage, which is linked to ageing and chronic diseases​.

Maintains Bone Health

Zinc supports bone formation and mineralisation by enhancing osteoblast (bone-building cell) activity and regulating bone resorption. It also contributes to collagen synthesis, essential for bone strength and density​.

Supports Cognitive Function

Zinc plays a role in brain function, learning, and memory. It helps regulate neurotransmitter activity and supports synaptic function. A deficiency has been linked to cognitive decline, particularly in older adults​.

Promotes Fertility & Reproductive Health

Zinc is essential for normal fertility and reproductive health, particularly in men, where it supports sperm production and motility. It also contributes to hormone regulation, including testosterone levels and ovarian function in women​.

Essential for Normal Vision

 Zinc plays a key role in maintaining normal vision by supporting vitamin A metabolism, crucial for night vision and overall eye health. It helps transport vitamin A from the liver to the retina and protects eye cells from oxidative damage​.

Contributes to Fatty Acid & Vitamin A Metabolism

Zinc is involved in the metabolism of essential fatty acids, which are necessary for cell membrane integrity, brain health, and hormone production. It also ensures the proper storage, transport, and use of vitamin A​.

Maintains Acid-Base Balance

Zinc plays a role in maintaining pH balance in the body by regulating acid-base metabolism. It ensures cellular stability and prevents excessive acidity, which can impact metabolic function​.
