Ingredients explained
Zinc (as zinc amino acid chelate)
Zinc acts as a cofactor for numerous enzymes and supports protein and nucleic acid synthesis, antioxidant defences, and normal immune cell function.
Caution: High-dose zinc may reduce copper absorption and cause stomach upset; take with food if sensitive and avoid using alongside other high-dose zinc products.
Copper (as copper citrate)
Copper supports enzymes involved in energy production and connective tissue formation and works with zinc to maintain balanced mineral status.
Caution: Excess copper can cause gastrointestinal discomfort; keep total copper intake within recommended amounts, especially if using other copper-containing products.
Calcium (as dibasic calcium phosphate)
Calcium contributes to cellular signalling and bone mineralisation, though this amount mainly functions as part of the tablet base.
Caution: Calcium at this low level is unlikely to be an issue, but separate from high-dose iron supplements if desired to avoid absorption competition.
How they work together
Zinc provides the primary functional role, while copper helps balance zinc’s tendency to lower copper status over time. The small amount of calcium is largely structural but contributes a minor mineral input.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: If you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult a healthcare professional before use.
Who should be cautious: People taking thyroid medicines or certain antibiotics may wish to separate zinc and calcium from these by at least 2 hours, as calcium may reduce absorption. Those with known allergies to any listed excipients should use caution. People with gastrointestinal sensitivity may prefer to take with food.
Storage: Keep out of the reach of children.
