What is zinc chelate?
Zinc is an important mineral in the body that is used in several different functions, from healing after an injury to hair growth. The body receives the bulk of its daily zinc from the foods we eat, but when we get low on zinc we need to take a supplement. Most often this supplement is in the form of a zinc chelate, which allows for rapid absorption of the zinc into the body. Zinc chelate also has uses outside of the body as a fertilizer since plants can become deficient in zinc as well.
