Ingredients explained
Zinc (as zinc methionine sulfate complex [OptiZinc])
Zinc serves as a cofactor for numerous enzymes and proteins involved in immune function, antioxidant defenses, and DNA and protein synthesis.
Caution: High zinc intake may reduce copper status over time; this formula includes copper, but avoid combining with additional high-dose zinc unless needed.
Copper (as copper citrate)
Copper supports enzymes that manage energy production, connective tissue formation, and antioxidant activity alongside zinc-dependent pathways.
Caution: Take as directed because excess copper can be harmful and may cause digestive upset in some people.
How they work together
Zinc supports enzyme activity and protein and DNA synthesis, while copper complements antioxidant and connective tissue enzymes that also rely on metal cofactors. Including copper helps balance mineral interactions that can be affected by higher zinc intake.
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 with copper imbalance or on zinc-containing supplements may want to avoid excess total zinc intake. Those with kidney concerns or on medications that may be affected by minerals should discuss with a healthcare provider before use.
