BrainMax®Zinc Complex 100 cps

BrainMax Zinc Complex is a synergistic combination of highly bioavailable forms of zinc, selenium, copper. Each capsule contains 15 mg of elemental zinc, 1 mg of copper and 490 mg of organic turmeric. Zinc in the form of zinc bisglycinate is the most absorbable form for the body, and when combined with copper in the form of citrate, its absorbability is further enhanced. Zinc supports the immune system, hormonal balance, fertility, bone health and last but not least, together with copper , it protects cells from oxidative stress. Selenium in its most bioavailable form (selenium methionine) contributes to the maintenance of hair and nail condition, normal thyroid function, and normal immune system function. To enhance the effects, we used organic turmericin the amount of almost half a graminstead of the commonly used ballast fillers. The product does not contain any ballast substances and thanks to the vegetable capsules it is also suitable for vegans. We recommend taking it always after meals.

Laboratory tested.

BrainMax Zinc Complex - the best combination of zinc, selenium and copper

A synergistic combination of zinc, selenium and copper that supports the immune system, hormonal balance and bone health. Capsules contain zinc and copper in highly absorbable forms and organic turmeric to amplify the effects.

The most absorbable form of zinc and selenium

BrainMax Zinc Complex is the world's unique synergistic combination of zinc, selenium, copper and organic turmeric that has been designed to support immunity, hormonal balance (^tes.t0testosterone), fertility, bone, hair, nail and skin health and protect cells from oxidative stress.

15 mg of elemental zinc in a highly usable form

Zinc biglycinate is considered the most effective form of zinc because it is highly absorbable, bioavailable and stomach friendly. Zinc bisglycinate is thus an ideal form in the treatment of zinc deficiency. This chelated form of zinc is not only highly usable by the body, but is also gentle on the digestive system. Zinc bisglycinate is also the only form of zinc whose absorption is less affected by the presence of phytates in the diet. Phytates are substances in cereals and soya that inhibit zinc absorption. Vegans in particular may have a diet rich in phytate and should therefore prefer this form of zinc.

Tested by an independent laboratory

BrainMax Zinc Complex is regularly tested for the amount and purity of the active ingredient in an independent accredited laboratory. In one capsule, 17.6 mg of elemental zinc has been measured. Test result report here.

Selenium, copper and turmeric

Because prolonged zinc intake can cause copper deficiency, we added 1 mg of copper in the form of citrate to zinc, which is highly usable by the body and is thought to maintain mineral balance in the body. Zinc and copper are minerals needed to support the activity of the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), which is an important antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative stress. Selenium in its most bioavailable form (selenium methionine) contributes to the maintenance of hair and nail condition, normal thyroid function, and normal immune system function. Selenium is an important antioxidant and, like zinc, counteracts oxidative stress. In addition, selenium increases the level of glutathione peroxidase, thereby increasing the antioxidant capacity of the body.

Turmeric - the most researched herb

Turmeric has a positive effect on the immune system - antioxidant, on digestion, liver, cardiovascular system, nervous system, respiratory system, condition of joints and bones, mental balance. Turmeric is used in the product as a functional filler because we do not want to use ballast substances (ethers) in our products.

BrainMax Zinc positively affects:

• Immune system function and vitamin A metabolism.
• Protecting cells from oxidative stress.
• Fertility and reproduction.
• Levels of the most potent male hormone in the blood.
• Maintaining normal condition of bones, joints, hair, nails and skin.
• Normal metabolism of macronutrients, carbohydrates and fatty acids.
• Cognitive function and visual fitness.
• DNA and protein synthesis.
• Involved in the process of cell division.
• Antioxidant capacity of the body.
• Normal liver function.
• Normal functioning of the nervous system.
• Normal function of the respiratory system.
• Normal functioning of the cardiovascular system - blood circulation.
• Normal digestion.

Zinc = immunity

An important part of the immune system are the so-called "T cells" that form in the thymus. These cells attack and destroy pathogens that attack the body. Zinc works by activating these cells so that they can quickly neutralise any threat.1 And zinc is also related to autoimmune diseases, as it has been shown that people with autoimmune diseases usually have significantly lower zinc levels.2

The effect of zinc on mucosal immunity

When we encounter someone who is sick, viral cells settle on our mucous membranes in the upper respiratory tract, where cells called IMC-1, which zinc supports, help defend the body against viruses. If viruses enter the body, zinc helps mobilize white blood cells that react faster and control any pathogens. Taking zinc is also recommended during ongoing illness, during which blood zinc levels drop as it is sent out of the bloodstream into the cells that help initiate the immune response.

Zinc and the strongest male hormone

Several studies have investigated the link between zinc levels and the production of the strongest male hormone. This has been done in both young and older men. Increased zinc intake has been shown to almost double the levels of the strongest male hormone in the older population!3

The effect of zinc on fertility

Zinc also has an effect on fertility. Low zinc levels can negatively affect several factors directly related to male fertility, such as reduced sperm quality. Zinc supplementation can significantly increase sperm volume, sperm motility and plays a key role in sperm development.4,5,6 It helps protect sperm from the harmful effects caused by toxins .

Beautiful hair and strong nails thanks to zinc

Zinc supports the production of collagen, the most abundant protein in the human body, which makes up connective tissue. Taking zinc is also good for those who are struggling with hair loss.
