[Application Description] Zinc citrate is an organic zinc supplement with low irritation and high zinc content. It participates in the tricarboxylic acid cycle in the human body, enhancing digestive and absorptive functions. Zinc citrate is a zinc complex found in human breast milk, more easily absorbed than zinc in cow's milk, and has stable properties. It can be used as a zinc supplement for diabetic patients. As a common zinc fortifier, zinc citrate also functions as an anti-caking agent, making it particularly suitable for manufacturing tablet nutritional supplements and powdered mixed foods. When both iron and zinc are severely deficient, choosing zinc citrate can avoid antagonism with iron. Due to its chelating effect, it can increase the clarity of fruit juice beverages and impart a refreshing acidity, making it widely used in fruit juice beverages. It is also widely used in cereals and their products, as well as in salt.

[Product Storage] Store zinc citrate in a dry, clean, and cool place. Shelf life: 18 months.
