Zinc glycine, with the chemical formula Zn(C2H4NO2)2, is a white crystalline powder, slightly soluble in water, with a theoretical zinc content of 30.4%.
Zinc glycine has a higher bioavailability than second-generation food nutritional enhancers such as zinc lactate and zinc gluconate, and is more in line with the mechanism and characteristics of human absorption. It enters the intestinal mucosa within 15 minutes of human consumption and is quickly absorbed.
At the same time, it does not antagonize trace elements such as calcium and iron in the body, thereby increasing the body's absorption rate of zinc, which is incomparable to all other zinc supplements at home and abroad.
According to the experimental report of the British ALBION laboratory, the bioavailability of amino acid chelated zinc is 200-300% higher than that of ordinary zinc salts and 200% higher than that of methylpyridine zinc. It is particularly suitable for children, pregnant women, nursing mothers, the elderly and young men and women preparing to give birth. It is also an ideal product for human mineral supplementation.
As a zinc fortifier, it can be used in infant food, dairy products, cereals and their products, solid beverages, wheat flour and its products, as well as in special dietary foods and health foods.

Zinc Glycine (Zinc Bisglycinate) offers several advantages as a source of zinc supplementation, making it a preferred choice for improving zinc intake. Here are the key benefits:
1. High Bioavailability
• One of the main advantages of Zinc Glycine is its superior bioavailability. The chelation of zinc with the amino acid glycine allows for better absorption in the intestines, ensuring more efficient uptake compared to other forms of zinc like zinc oxide or zinc sulfate.
2. Better Zinc Retention
• The chelated form of Zinc Glycine reduces the chances of interaction with other dietary components, such as phytates found in grains, which can inhibit zinc absorption. This allows for better retention of zinc in the body, ensuring a higher percentage of the ingested zinc is utilized effectively.
3. Optimal for Bone and Growth Development
• Zinc is vital for bone development and cell growth, especially in children, pregnant women, and athletes. Zinc Glycine provides a highly absorbable zinc source that supports bone density, growth, and cellular repair.
4. Less Likely to Interact with Other Nutrients
• Zinc Glycine is less prone to interact with other minerals or vitamins in the digestive tract, ensuring that zinc absorption is not compromised when taken with multivitamins or other supplements.
5. Versatile Application
• Due to its neutral taste and high solubility, Zinc Glycine can be used in various forms, including tablets, capsules, powders, chewable tablets, and liquid supplements. Its versatility makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of zinc supplementation products.
