Thorne Research’s Zinc Picolinate (Double Strength) delivers 200 percent of the suggested daily value (DV) of the essential mineral zinc.
With the volumes
of research findings that prove the value of zinc as part of a healthy diet, it’s astounding that about one-third of the Earth’s population is at risk of
being deficient in zinc. This deficiency is a primary cause of many diseases, and it occurs despite the fact that zinc is naturally found in many common
foods. The problem results from crops grown in soil that has been overused and depleted of nutrients, which can result in low levels of zinc in the foods grown
from it. Other reasons for a zinc deficiency include diseases that hinder your intestines’ absorption of the mineral; zinc-depleting conditions, such as
diarrhea and similar digestive difficulties, may also contribute to that shortage. Intensive periods of growth, like those experienced by developing
children and pregnant women, can also result in you becoming deficient in this nutrient.
Since zinc deficiency can lead to a number of serious health problems,
taking Zinc Picolinate (Double Strength) makes good sense. What is picolinate? It’s the term used for the supplemental version of zinc.
This supplement is
powerfully effective for athletes, whose strenuous activities may result in a need for more zinc picolinate than the average person. This vital mineral also
assists in maintaining energy levels throughout the day to counter the fatigue that may result from intense exercise or other activities.
Zinc Picolinate
(Double Strength) vegetable capsules are specifically designed to be highly bioavailable, meaning that the benefits of the zinc supplement will be able to
go to work in your body as quickly as possible. The formula is free of preservatives, magnesium stearate, lubricants, and diluents. Its ingredients and
manufacturing process is also perfect for those following a vegetarian diet.

looking to enhance their health and well-being. Its products are commonly used in prestigious research studies, and are recommended by many doctors and health
care practitioners. The company always goes the extra mile to ensure that Thorne Research dietary supplements are safe and effective for immune-compromised,

Outstanding Zinc supplement. The very BEST you will find.
By Erikph7 from Tacoma, WA on October 9, 2010
I was having issues with tiredness and not sleeping well. When I went in for my physical exam [43], my Doctor recommended this product and provided me with a 60 capsule bottle. I took two a day. Within two weeks, I started noticing a difference in the way I felt. I increased H2O intake, along with this supplement, and my sleep comfort improved dramatically. More men should wake up to this dietary secret -- all men need zinc -- period. Stress levels have clearly lower, sleep has improved, and I just feel altogether better. As soon as I postponed refilling the bottle for nearly two weeks, I noticed clearly a decline in the way I felt. Now I'm all stocked up with the 180 capsule bottles. Thank you for making such a great product. Money -- you can't take it with you when life is gone. Why not prioritize your life and spend some of it on better wellness and increasing your quality of life. JUST DO IT!
Pros:
+Easy to swallow capsules [small in size]
+Increased sleep comfort
+Lower stress levels
+More energy
+Increased immune support
+efficient formula giving optimal absorption.
