Ingredients explained
Zinc (from Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate)
Zinc functions as a cofactor for many enzymes involved in cell signaling, antioxidant defense, and protein and DNA synthesis.
Caution: Take with food if stomach upset occurs, and avoid taking at the same time as high-iron or high-calcium supplements which may reduce zinc absorption.
Selenium [from Selenium Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)]
Selenium is incorporated into selenoproteins that support antioxidant enzymes like glutathione peroxidases and help manage oxidative stress.
Caution: High intakes from multiple supplements may be excessive; keep total selenium from all sources within recommended limits.
Copper (from Copper Bisglycinate Chelate)
Copper supports enzymes involved in energy production, iron transport, and connective tissue formation.
Caution: Do not combine with high-dose zinc long term without copper, as imbalances may affect mineral status.
How they work together
Zinc and selenium both participate in antioxidant systems and cellular enzyme functions, offering complementary support for cell protection and immune function. The small amount of copper helps maintain mineral balance when zinc is supplemented, supporting enzymes that require copper for normal activity.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Consult a physician before use if pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition.
Who should be cautious: People with thyroid concerns or on thyroid medications may wish to discuss selenium content with a healthcare provider. Those with copper-sensitive conditions should be mindful of added copper. If combining with medications, discuss with a healthcare provider first.
