What it is: Pure Encapsulations Zinc 30 delivers 30 mg of zinc as zinc picolinate per capsule — a therapeutic-dose, highly bioavailable organic chelate suited for protocols requiring active immune support, wound healing acceleration, skin health, or zinc repletion beyond standard daily maintenance levels. Formulated without unnecessary additives, common allergens, GMOs, or artificial ingredients, and manufactured in a GMP-certified facility to Pure Encapsulations' practitioner-grade quality standards.
How it works: Zinc picolinate's picolinic acid chelation ensures efficient intestinal absorption at the higher 30 mg dose, forming a lipophilic complex that facilitates mucosal uptake via passive and carrier-mediated pathways. At therapeutic zinc levels, this form supports robust T-cell and NK cell activation, thymulin production, metallothionein synthesis for intracellular zinc trafficking, carbonic anhydrase activity for tissue respiration, 5-alpha reductase modulation relevant to prostate health, and superoxide dismutase-mediated antioxidant defense. At 30 mg per capsule — 273% of the Daily Value — this dose delivers meaningful therapeutic zinc activity across immune, skin, reproductive, and metabolic protocols.
When to use it: Indicated for adults requiring therapeutic-level zinc support — including active immune challenges, wound healing, inflammatory skin conditions, male reproductive and prostate health, and confirmed zinc deficiency repletion. One capsule once or twice daily with a meal. Long-term twice-daily use warrants periodic monitoring of copper status — consider concurrent copper supplementation in sustained high-dose protocols.

Caution: If pregnant or lactating, have any health condition, or are taking any medication — including antibiotics — consult your healthcare practitioner before use. Zinc may be contraindicated with certain antibiotics. In rare cases, zinc may cause nausea, vomiting, or a metallic taste. High intakes of zinc may cause fever, diarrhea, fatigue, or impaired immune response. Long-term use at higher doses may reduce copper absorption — consider concurrent copper supplementation in sustained protocols. Keep out of reach of children.

Key Ingredients:
Zinc (as zinc picolinate) — 30 mg Zinc picolinate delivers 30 mg of elemental zinc per capsule — 273% of the Daily Value — as an organic picolinic acid chelate offering superior intestinal bioavailability relative to inorganic zinc forms through facilitated mucosal transport mechanisms. At this therapeutic dose, zinc picolinate supports robust immune cell activation, thymulin secretion, metallothionein-mediated zinc trafficking, carbonic anhydrase-dependent cellular respiration, and 5-alpha reductase modulation contributing to prostate health and male reproductive function. The 30 mg picolinate form is clinically appropriate for active immune protocols, inflammatory skin conditions, wound healing acceleration, and zinc deficiency repletion — with the chelate form ensuring efficient absorption where less bioavailable forms may underperform.
