Frequently asked questions
Why is copper added to this formula?
Zinc and copper are absorbed through the same mechanisms in the intestine. Long-term high intake of zinc can reduce copper absorption. By adding copper to this high-dose zinc supplement, the natural balance between these minerals is maintained.
Why is this form of zinc suitable for vegetarians and vegans?
Animal sources typically contain better-absorbed forms of zinc, while plant-based sources can contain phytates that inhibit zinc absorption. This is one reason why L-OptiZinc is popular among vegans as a supplement, as it offers better absorption than standard zinc compounds.
What is L-OptiZinc®?
L-OptiZinc® is a form of zinc bound to the amino acid methionine. This combination ensures better zinc absorption by the body compared to other zinc compounds, such as zinc sulfate or zinc oxide.
Is L-OptiZinc® found in foods?
L-OptiZinc® is a specific form of zinc found in supplements. Zinc is found in foods like oysters, nuts, seeds, legumes, and meat.
