Used to supplement vitamin C and zinc deficiencies, support immune system function, and promote overall wellness. Often taken during cold and flu season or by individuals with inadequate dietary intake of these essential nutrients.

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an antioxidant that helps protect cells from oxidative stress and supports collagen synthesis and immune cell function. Zinc acetate provides elemental zinc, which serves as a cofactor for numerous enzymes and is essential for normal immune response, protein synthesis, and wound healing.

Generally well-tolerated when taken as directed, though high doses of zinc may cause gastrointestinal upset. Should be taken with food to minimize stomach irritation. Those with hemochromatosis or other conditions affecting mineral metabolism should consult a healthcare provider before use. May interact with certain antibiotics and other medications.
