Zinc Picolinate - an acid form of zinc with high absorption rates. Thus its effects can be noticed faster and for a longer period. The absorption of Zinc is a complex process that involves its transportation through the intestinal membranes, blood stream and finally individual cells. This particular nutrient is needed by the body to maintain a healthy metabolism.
OptiZinc® - zinc mono-L-methionine with superior absorption, retention and antioxidant and cell protectant properties compared to other forms of zinc tested. OptiZinc® is 1:1 complex of zinc and methionine, an amino acid that is well-absorbed by the body. OptiZinc® offers benefits for dietary supplements and food and beverages.
Sucrosomial® Zinc - uses enhanced absorption and bioavailability mineral technology.
Phospholipid bilayer micro-encapsulation technology protects mineral in gastrointestinal lumen, increases dissolubility, and easily crosses membranes. Promotes immune defenses, enhancing healthy immune cell proliferation, activation and function.
SelenoExcell Selenium - organic selenium supplement originates from a non-pathogenic, non-GMO Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strain. It creates a yeast supplement product that is the closest to food forms of selenium, like what is found in Brazil nuts, eggs, peas, poultry, and meats. They do this because they believe it is important to consume minerals and vitamins that are as close to a natural food form as possible. However, the S. cerevisiae cells in SelenoExcell yeast supplement are dead or inactive, and only the nutritional properties remain. The cells cannot reproduce in the human body when consumed because they are no longer alive. Organic selenium supplements from ‘high selenium yeasts’ contain as much as 1,000 to 2,000 micrograms of selenium per gram. The form of selenium in SelenoExcell is what researchers call organic, meaning it is attached to several amino acids. This factor may make it more bioavailable than others.
Copper Glycinate Chelate - Copper is critical for the body to manufacture collagen, the structural protein that consists within human tissues, including skin, joint cartilage, muscles, and bones. While collagen supplements have become increasingly popular as of late, there is no clear evidence that consuming collagen will target a specific area of the body. When digested, collagen is broken down into isolated amino acids. Supplementing with copper activates the body’s structural proteins, which creates immediate utilization. This is extremely important for vegetarians and vegans. Copper engages the building blocks of collagen without the use of animal products, and is beneficial for meat-eaters who need more support for their joints, muscles, and skin. Copper Glycinate is formulated with Earth's smallest essential amino acid, glycine, for superior absorption from the gut into the bloodstream, into our soft tissues. Copper is a main component in the powerful antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase. In clinical trials, copper deficiency has been shown to lead into fat cell and red blood cell oxidation.
Copper Sebecate - A salt form of copper. Copper is an essential trace mineral responsible for a variety of enzymatic reactions in the body.
Copper Gluconate - A salt form of copper from D-glucomic acid.
