Description
Health Leads Zinc Ultra Complex combines 50mg of zinc from zinc gluconate with 5mg of copper from copper gluconate in a carefully balanced, one-a-day vegetable capsule.
Zinc is an essential trace mineral required for hundreds of enzyme systems throughout the body. Because the body cannot store large amounts of zinc or produce it itself, it must be obtained through food or supplementation.
This high-strength formula includes copper alongside zinc to help maintain the natural balance between these two essential trace minerals during supplementation.
Why Are Zinc and Copper Combined?
Zinc and copper are both essential trace minerals with complementary nutritional roles.
They also share common absorption pathways within the digestive tract. For this reason, higher-strength zinc supplements are often formulated with copper to provide both minerals together in a balanced daily supplement.
Health Leads provides 50mg zinc together with 5mg copper in a simple, additive-free formulation.
