Why It Is In There
What it does.
-
Immune Function
Zinc contributes to the normal function of the immune system. Vitamin D3 in this formula contributes to the same.
-
Protein And Testosterone
Zinc contributes to normal protein synthesis and to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood. Both claims are authorised on the GB register.
-
Why Ten And Not Thirty
The tolerable upper intake for supplemental zinc is 25mg a day, and sustained higher intakes compete with copper absorption. 10mg is the full NRV with room to spare.
Health claims on this page are taken from the GB nutrition and health claims register and apply at the doses stated. Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
