Zinc lozenges 60 tablets – Effective support for the immune system

Zinc lozenges offer a convenient and tasty way to support the immune system. These tablets contain zinc in the form of zinc oxide and zinc gluconate, known for their high bioavailability and effectiveness. With a natural taste of citrus and orange, this supplement is ideal for daily use, especially for adults who want to maintain a healthy immune system and general health.

Benefits and effects

• Support for the immune system: Zinc plays a key role in maintaining the normal function of the immune system and protects the body against oxidative stress by promoting the formation of superoxide dismutase, one of the body's most important antioxidants.
• Cell division and growth: Contributes to normal growth and development during pregnancy, childhood and adolescence, and is important for the regeneration of cells throughout the body.
• Hormone production: Zinc is essential for the synthesis of insulin and supports reproductive functions, including sperm motility and development of reproductive organs.
• Skin and wound healing: Promotes healthy skin and supports the body's natural ability to heal wounds.
• Support for taste and smell: Zinc contributes to normal taste sensitivity, which can improve the enjoyment of food.
• Aging-related benefits: Studies show that adequate levels of zinc can support the function of the thymus gland and help counteract immunodeficiency in the elderly.
