    Questions and Answers about 21st Century, Zinc Citrate

    Have a Question?

    Ask a Question

    • What is zinc citrate used for?

      Zinc citrate is a form of zinc supplement used to prevent or treat zinc deficiency. It supports immune function, wound healing, and protein synthesis. Zinc is also important for taste and smell perception, DNA synthesis, and cell division. Some people use zinc supplements to potentially shorten the duration of common colds.

    • Can I take zinc citrate every day?

      Zinc citrate can be taken daily at recommended doses, which for adults are typically around 8-11 mg per day. However, long-term use of high-dose zinc supplements can lead to copper deficiency and other health issues. It's best to consult with a healthcare provider before starting a daily zinc supplement regimen, especially if you have any health conditions.

    • When to take zinc, morning or night?

      Zinc can be taken at any time of day, but it's often recommended to take it with food to reduce the risk of stomach upset. Some people prefer taking it in the morning with breakfast, while others take it at night.

    • Which is better zinc or zinc citrate?

      Zinc citrate is a form of zinc, so the question is really about different forms of zinc supplements. Zinc citrate is generally well-absorbed and may cause less stomach irritation compared to some other forms. However, the "best" form can depend on individual factors and why you're taking zinc.

    • Is zinc citrate good for immune system?

      Yes, zinc citrate can support immune system function. Zinc plays a crucial role in the development and function of immune cells. It may help reduce the duration and severity of common colds when taken at the onset of symptoms. However, while zinc is important for immune health, more is not always better, and it's best to stick to recommended doses.

    • What are the side effects of taking zinc tablets?

      Common side effects of zinc supplements may include nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, and headaches. Taking zinc with food can help reduce these effects. In high doses or with long-term use, zinc can interfere with copper absorption and potentially lead to anemia.
