In a chelate, the mineral is bound to an organic molecule; in zinc bisglycinate, to two molecules of the amino acid glycine. According to the product name, Nutrend uses only this chelated form.

Zinc in the diet

Zinc is found mainly in meat, cheese, eggs, wholegrain products, pulses, nuts and seeds. The German Nutrition Society (DGE) gives its reference values for adults depending on phytate intake, i.e. on how much wholegrain and pulses are on the menu. They lie between 7 and 16 mg of zinc per day.

Anyone who already uses a multivitamin or another product containing zinc should keep track of the total amount.
