| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Zinc Citrate is an essential trace mineral and a factor in the maintenance of good health as it supports and protects the immune system and helps the body fight against diseases. Zinc is an important antioxidant nutrient. It is necessary for protein synthesis, wound healing, for blood stability, normal tissue function, and aids in the digestion and metabolism of phosphorus. It also governs the contractility of muscles and maintains the body’s alkaline balance.
Zinc Citrate can be used as a dietary supplement and as a nutrient. This product is known to be used in oral care products. | [Chemical Properties]
