Benefits
Zinc is an essential trace element involved in most major metabolic pathways. General signs of human zinc deficiency indicate that zinc has important functions in maintaining immune function, reproduction, healthy skin, and growth.*
Numerous studies support the fundamental role of zinc in normal immune response in humans. Immune cells must be able to rapidly divide in order to respond to daily challenges. Like all rapidly dividing cells, immune cells depend on adequate amounts of dietary zinc.*
As a cofactor of the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), zinc can be considered an antioxidant nutrient. Zinc supplementation has been shown to increase the antioxidant activity of SOD and provide increased free radical protection. Zinc deficiency is associated with increased oxidative damage.*
Absorption of toxic heavy metals, especially cadmium and lead, is lower in individuals with high zinc status compared to those with low zinc status. The body pool of readily available zinc appears to be small, which renders the body susceptible to deficiency and therefore dependent on a steady dietary supply of bio-available zinc. While typical zinc intakes in U.S. adults are between 10 and 15 mg per day, which approaches the RDA, intakes in the elderly are often low. Pregnant women are also at risk for zinc deficiency since they have a higher requirement for this trace element. Frequently, vegetarians and chronically depressed individuals have been found to have low zinc status.*

Buying on subscription ("Auto Ship") is the most convenient and cheapest way for you to get the supplements you like to regularly order.

You’ll receive the 10% discount off the sale price for your initial purchase. However, after the sale ends, your future renewal purchases will be 10% off the regular price.

Not a problem. If you aren’t ready for your next renewal, simply click the "Pause" button in your subscription or change your next renewal to a different date (both options are located at "Account > Subscription (Auto Ship) Orders > your subscription"). We also send you an email a couple of days before each upcoming subscription renewal to remind you that it’s shipping soon.

How to Change an Existing Subscription
After placing a subscription order, you can still change pretty much anything about it — ship date, renewal frequency, quantity, add or remove items from the subscription, pause it until your ready for another order, or cancel it.
Most options are obvious. Just go to your "Account" and select "Subscription (Auto Ship) Orders" and you’ll see buttons to make changes to your subscription.
Changing Renewal Frequency or Quantity
The option to change renewal frequency or quantity might seem a little unusual. Here’s how to do it: Click the button "Change renewal frequency or quantity." This will take you to the product listing for the item you want to make changes to. Select the new renewal frequency and/or quantity you want and then click the "Subscribe to Auto Ship" button as if you’re purchasing it for the first time. This will put the item in your cart with your changes. Next, go to your cart and go all the way through checkout as though you were buying the item again. When you do, you’ll see a “Switch Subscription” button instead of “Submit Order.” Click that. You will not be charged anything for this. In fact, if you look at the "Cart Totals" section on the page, you’ll see that it shows "$0.00" (the only dollar amounts shown are simply showing what your charges will be on your next subscription renewal date).
