ZINC PLUS VITAMIN C FROM NATURAL & ORGANIC SOURCES
Zinc and vitamin C are essential nutrients that have various functions and thus need to be taken daily in sufficient amounts. For our zinc capsules with vitamin C, we only use natural, high-quality raw materials. The zinc comes from an extract blend of shiitake, oyster mushrooms, holy basil, and coconut. Instead of adding synthetic ascorbic acid, we chose vitamin C from acerola extract. Both raw materials come from controlled organic farming - the extract blend rich in zinc comes from India and the Brazilian acerola cherries are extracted in France. By adding plant extracts and not isolated vitamin and mineral forms, other beneficial phytonutrients naturally found in these plants remain intact. Our supplement is carefully dosed: One capsule provides 7.5 mg zinc and 20 mg vitamin C. Other zinc supplements offer a single dose of up to 400% of the NRV, which can be too much. Unlike many zinc tablets, our supplement is also free of additives.
