Description
Zinc Caps supports your body’s natural immune defenses, but research has shown that zinc deficiency is widespread, especially with older people.
Simultaneously, zinc is also a key component of vital hormones and supports protein and DNA synthesis, insulin production, and thyroid and bone metabolism.
A deficiency of zinc may contribute to age-related impairment of the immune function, or immunosenescence as well as having a negative effect on all of the above-mentioned processes.
Moreover, zinc is also a component of a bodily antioxidant, which can help protect your body against free radicals, which damages cells.
Scientists have found that zinc supplementation can support the aging immune system, and promote normal inflammatory and antioxidant responses.
This is especially crucial for older people, whose immune system may naturally undergo age-related changes.
Although scientific research indicates that zinc supplements can contribute to normal health, absorption of zinc in the body can, however, be limited.
Therefore, Life Extension® has developed a low-cost formulation combining the well-established, enhanced bioavailability of Zinc Caps with zinc citrate which provides a potent 50-milligram dose of zinc in a single capsule.
