Technical Details & Test Data
- Delivering Optimal Nutrition Throughout the Lifespan with NEW Z-life™ Zinc Max 27% Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate
Manufactured in the majestic mountains of Ogden, Utah, Zinc Max is the newest zinc bisglycinate chelate innovation under the Z-life™ brand. Zinc Max supplies 27% elemental zinc, the highest concentration zinc product offered by Balchem®. Higher elemental zinc equates to a more efficient and more economical solution for today’s most popular applications like gummies and sachets and continues to perform well in traditional supplements like tablets and capsules. Its neutral taste profile makes Zinc Max the ideal choice in chelated zinc formulations.
Due to its optimized chelation manufacturing process, Z-life zinc has been demonstrated to outperform inorganic zinc salts in absorption studies.
Like its predecessor, Zinc Max is created by binding zinc to two organic glycine ligands, resulting in a neutral pH, highly stable structure that is easily absorbed. This is because the chelated structure of Zinc Max limits the interference with other ‘anti-nutrients’ in foods, such as phytates and polyphenols, which can inhibit absorption of key minerals. Mineral chelates in general are less prone to interference from these anti-nutrients and have been shown to be more bioavailable than traditional inorganic mineral salts. Zinc Max is suitable for vegetarian and vegan lifestyles, animal-free, silica-free and not labeled USDA bioengineered (BE).
Zinc bisglycinate chelate significantly changed zinc status, demonstrating superior bioavailability over other zinc forms
Zinc bisglycinate chelate significantly changed zinc status, demonstrating superior bioavailability over other zinc forms Zinc chelates were 43% better absorbed
Zinc is an important nutrient that contributes to several key physiological human functions. Well-studied for its role in immune health, zinc also supports the body’s antioxidant defense system, aids in protein metabolism, supports skin health, assists with wound healing and supports digestive health. Zinc is essential throughout the lifecycle and has been clinically proven to support normal growth and development during pregnancy, adolescence and childhood.
Like all other minerals, the body cannot produce zinc on its own. Nearly 1 in 5 Americans do not get enough zinc in their diet, so supplementation and food fortification can
help deliver optimal levels of this important mineral to consumers. While all sources of zinc are beneficial to improve nutrient status, consumers around the globe trust
the high quality and efficacy of Albion® Minerals to deliver safe and well-tolerated chelates. Join industry pioneer Balchem® at the forefront of mineral chelate innovation and try Z-life™ Zinc Max in your food, beverage and dietary supplement applications today!- Efficacy
Consumers throughout the world are looking for safe,efficacious and easy-to-digest supplements to improve their health. Zinc is a top nutrient of interest zinc yet deficiencies in several key demographics exist.
