Who it is for

For adults who prefer to take zinc in liquid form and want to choose the amount themselves between 15 mg and 24 mg per day. Do not take together with other food supplements containing zinc.

What is in the daily portion?

One drop contains 3 mg of zinc (30% NRV). With 5 drops this is 15 mg (150% NRV), and with the maximum daily portion of 8 drops it is 24 mg of zinc (240% NRV). The zinc is present as zinc sulphate, dissolved in water with glycerol as a stabiliser.

How the drops are taken

The drops are not taken neat but diluted: in about 300 ml of water or juice and with a meal. They should not be taken on an empty stomach. The daily amount can also be split across several meals.

Zinc in the diet

Zinc is found mainly in meat, cheese, eggs, wholegrain products, pulses and nuts. How much of it the body absorbs also depends on the phytate content of the meal, which is particularly high in wholegrain foods and pulses.

Depending on phytate intake, the German Nutrition Society (DGE) therefore gives reference values of 7 to 10 mg of zinc per day for women and 11 to 16 mg per day for men.
