Scitec Nutrition
Zinc Bisglycinate 100 tablets

Scitec Nutrition Zinc Bisglycinate is a dietary supplement containing zinc in the form of zinc bisglycinate – an organic chelated form with high bioavailability. One tablet provides 25 mg of zinc. The product contributes to normal immune function, maintenance of normal testosterone levels, healthy skin, hair, and nails, and supports normal protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism. It is suitable for both men and women, athletes, and general users.

The manufacturer recommends taking 1 tablet daily, ideally in the morning with a meal, washed down with plenty of water. Taking it with food reduces the risk of stomach irritation that can occur with high doses of zinc on an empty stomach. Morning intake is practical and supports consistency. If morning does not suit you, you can take the tablet at any other time of the day – always with food.

Zinc bisglycinate is a chelated organic form of zinc where the zinc is bound to two molecules of the amino acid glycine. This bond ensures significantly higher bioavailability and absorption compared to inorganic forms like zinc oxide or zinc gluconate. Chelated zinc is also gentler on the digestive system, which is particularly beneficial if other forms of zinc have caused you nausea or heartburn.

The pack contains 100 tablets, with a recommended dosage of 1 tablet per day. This means one pack lasts exactly 100 days, or more than 3 months of continuous supplementation. It is a cost-effective solution for meeting long-term zinc needs.

The product does not contain any declared allergens or animal-derived ingredients in its active components. Excipients used include cellulose gel, phosphates, silicon dioxide, and other standard tableting aids. However, the mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids in the tablet coating may be of animal origin – vegans should verify this composition directly with the manufacturer before purchase.

Scitec Nutrition Zinc Bisglycinate does not contain any declared allergens. The product is suitable for people with gluten or lactose intolerance or other common food allergies. If you suffer from a severe allergy or coeliac disease, we recommend checking manufacturing conditions with the manufacturer, as the product may be processed in a facility handling other substances.

Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal blood testosterone levels – this is an approved European Union health claim. This means zinc helps maintain testosterone within a normal physiological range, rather than pathologically increasing it above standard levels. Supplementation is particularly beneficial for men and athletes, where physical exertion and sweating contribute to increased zinc loss and potential deficiency.

Results depend on the extent of zinc deficiency in your body. If a deficiency exists, you may notice the first positive changes in immunity, energy, or skin health after 4–8 weeks of regular use. Zinc is an essential mineral with long-term, cumulative effects; do not expect immediate results. Regular and uninterrupted supplementation is key for optimal results.

Zinc can be combined with most common supplements such as proteins, creatine, B-vitamins, or omega-3 fatty acids. Caution should be exercised with high doses of calcium, iron, or copper, as these minerals can compete for absorption. Zinc and copper levels should be balanced – with long-term zinc supplementation, it is recommended to ensure adequate copper intake from your diet.

Yes, Scitec Nutrition Zinc Bisglycinate is suitable for both men and women. Zinc is an essential mineral for both genders, contributing to skin, hair, and nail health, normal immune function, and cognitive health in both sexes. Women may also appreciate support for reproductive health and fertility. The 25 mg dose per tablet is appropriate for adults of both genders.

At the recommended dose of 1 tablet (25 mg of zinc) daily, side effects are rare. Zinc bisglycinate is a stomach-friendly chelated form, so nausea or stomach issues—which can occur with other forms of zinc—are much less likely. Nevertheless, it is recommended to take the tablet with a meal. Long-term exceeding of the recommended dosage can disrupt copper absorption – please adhere to the recommended intake.

Multivitamins typically contain zinc in a cheaper form (zinc oxide or sulfate) and at lower quantities, combined with many other micronutrients. Scitec Nutrition Zinc Bisglycinate offers zinc exclusively in the chelated form of zinc bisglycinate with a dose of 25 mg per tablet – allowing for targeted, dose-controlled supplementation with proven superior bioavailability. This is advantageous for people with higher zinc needs or confirmed deficiency.

The product is ideal for physically active individuals and athletes who lose zinc through sweat, as well as individuals with insufficient dietary zinc intake. It is also suitable for men monitoring testosterone levels, people concerned with skin, hair, and nail health, those with weakened immunity, or individuals who consume processed foods with lower zinc content. It is suitable for adult men and women.

The European Reference Intake (RI) for zinc is 10 mg per day for an adult. One tablet of Scitec Nutrition Zinc Bisglycinate contains 25 mg of zinc, which represents 250% of the daily reference value. The higher dose is aimed at physically active individuals with increased requirements. For a healthy adult on a standard diet, this dose is sufficient to cover even increased requirements linked to physical exercise.
