Why Choose Zinc Bis·Glycinate?

Zinc is an essential mineral involved in the growth, maintenance, and function of virtually every cell in the body. Because the body does not store large amounts of zinc, consistent daily intake is important to maintain healthy zinc levels.
CanPrev Zinc Bis·Glycinate 25 delivers zinc in one of the most highly regarded supplemental forms—Albion™ Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate—chosen for its excellent absorption and digestive comfort.

Featuring Albion™ Chelated Minerals

One of the biggest advantages of this product is its use of Albion™ Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate, a premium mineral developed by Balchem.
Unlike some forms of zinc that may be harder to tolerate, bisglycinate zinc is chelated to the amino acid glycine, creating a form that is recognized for its high bioavailability and gentle effect on the stomach.
For individuals taking zinc daily, this can make long-term supplementation more comfortable.

Supports Immune Function

Health Canada recognizes zinc as helping maintain normal immune function.
Adequate zinc intake supports the body’s natural immune defenses, making it one of the most widely used minerals during periods of increased immune demand and as part of everyday wellness.

More Than Immune Support

Although many people associate zinc with immunity, it contributes to numerous biological processes throughout the body.
According to CanPrev, zinc plays a role in:

• Normal growth and development
• Healthy metabolism
• Wound healing
• Taste and vision
• Cognitive health
• Blood sugar support
• Normal glandular function
Zinc is also an essential component of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase, which help protect cells from oxidative stress.

Why Bisglycinate Instead of Other Forms?

Zinc supplements are available in several forms, including citrate, gluconate, picolinate, and bisglycinate.
CanPrev chose Albion™ Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate because it combines excellent absorption with good gastrointestinal tolerance, making it an ideal option for everyday supplementation.

More About Albion™ Zinc
Albion® Minerals is a well-known brand (now part of Balchem) that pioneered amino acid chelated minerals. This creates a stable, organic-like structure that the body absorbs more effectively than many other zinc forms (e.g., zinc oxide, zinc gluconate, or zinc picolinate).
