Product Description

NOW Zinc Picolinate 50 mg provides a high-potency form of zinc in convenient vegetarian capsules. Each serving delivers 50 mg of elemental zinc from zinc picolinate, a mineral form commonly chosen for daily immune, skin, and enzyme function support.

Zinc is an essential trace mineral involved in many normal body processes, including immune system activity, protein and carbohydrate metabolism, RNA/DNA synthesis, intracellular signaling, and antioxidant defense. This formula is ideal for adults looking for a simple, vegan-friendly zinc supplement from NOW Foods with Non-GMO labeling, GMP Quality Assured manufacturing standards, and USA quality testing.

The clean capsule formula includes rice flour, hypromellose cellulose capsule, and vegetable-source stearic acid. It is not manufactured with yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nut, or sesame ingredients, making it suitable for many supplement routines. As with all high-potency zinc supplements, this product should be used only as directed and not for long-term use unless advised by a healthcare professional.

Dosage & Usage Instructions

Recommended dosage: Take 1 capsule daily with a meal, exactly as stated on the product label.

Best time to take: Take with breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Taking zinc with food may help reduce stomach discomfort.

Foods to take with: Take with a balanced meal containing protein and healthy fats. This helps make the supplement easier on the stomach.

Foods and supplements to separate from zinc: Avoid taking zinc at the exact same time as high-dose iron, copper, calcium, or magnesium supplements unless directed by a healthcare professional, because minerals can compete for absorption.

Hydration tips: Take the capsule with a full glass of water. Good hydration supports normal digestion and helps the capsule pass comfortably.

Daily vs. cyclic use: The label states this product is not intended for long-term use. Use daily only as directed. For extended zinc use, especially at 50 mg per serving, consult a physician or qualified health practitioner.

What to expect: Zinc is a nutritional support supplement, not a stimulant. It is commonly used for gradual support of immune function, skin health, and normal enzyme activity. Results vary based on diet, zinc status, and overall health.

Warnings and precautions: For adults only. Do not use if pregnant or nursing. Consult a physician if taking medication or if you have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children.
