Here's a hot take - Zinc supplements are often just used to help prevent zinc deficiency! If you aren't typically getting 25mg - 50mg of zinc each day it can lead to a weakened immune system, hair loss, loss of appetite and wounds that take longer than normal to heal. Good news is Dakota Nutrition formulated these zinc capsules to not only help sustain optimal zinc levels but to also boost your immune support system, fight inflammation, help reduce the duration of the common cold and flu, and fight the ever annoying acne.
