Zinc Lozenges

Zinc Lozenges from Douglas Laboratories^® supply bioavailable zinc, sweetened with xylitol, mannitol and flavored with natural flavours. Each tablet contains 10 mg of elemental zinc in the form of zinc citrate.

Zinc is an essential trace element involved in various pathways. Zinc contributes to normal acid-base metabolism; normal metabolism of carbohydrates, vitamin A and fatty acids; and the normal synthesis of proteins and DNA. Moreover, zinc has a role in the process of cell division and contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress

Zinc supports the maintenance of strong bones, hair and nails, as well as healthy skin. It also assists in the proper functioning of the immune system and helps maintain cognitive functions such as concentration, learning, memory and reasoning, as well as resistance to stress. Moreover, zinc contributes to normal fertility and reproduction, as well as to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood.

The amount of zinc found naturally in the body appears to be small, which makes the body dependent on a steady dietary supply of bioavailable zinc.
