MicroZinc Capsules | Optimized Zinc

I think this is a great supplement, because doesn't upset my stomach. However, I don't think I can take every day. It made me lose a lot of hair, so much that my shower drain would clog with 1 or two showers. I was losing like 100 + hairs a day. It took me a couple of weeks to make the connection. Be careful and monitor your hair loss if you decide to take this everyday.

This formulation of zinc does not cause me nausea when taken on an empty stomach, unlike others. Oddly enough, other formulations of zinc also consistently give me horrific dreams that mean I have to stop taking them; this formulation does make dreams more vivid but they’ve never been unpleasant. That is the blessing of Nootropics Depot

It works, How do I know that? I got mild zinc toxicity from taking 40mg in capsule a day. So please be very careful, it is not like zinc glycinate or some other more mainstream salt of zinc used in supplements, the absorbance is definitely higher. I do not know how is it with other people but unless you are deficient I personally do not suggest the higher dosage option and if you do buy it for dose per dollar difference eat it every other day for safety. There is no treatment for mineral toxicity for low levels because chelation is harmful or even dangerous so you have to live with it for a long while, like months.

These are amazing! They've helped tremendously with my immune system, inflammation, sense of smell & taste, energy & a numerous amount of things. And I love how they don't upset my stomach at all. I've even taken them on a empty stomach when feeling risky. And it didn't bother my stomach at all

The only zinc supplement people will need. A must have for men

I have been taking this form of zinc essentially since it was released. And occasionally I've had to buy a different form. Well let me tell you, none, I mean none of the market, compare to this form of zinc in terms of absorption, noticeable benefits which include brain, skin, libido, and hair health. I typically take it along with MicroMag and I know I've got my bases covered on two of the most important minerals. I'm blessed with ADHD-PI; these are essential in the ole' toolbox to allow my brain and body to to remain at an optimal level after taking a prescribed ADHD med. Which by the way, I've been prescribed for over 10 years now, and noticed zero negative effects from taking the pharmaceutical for so many years. They certainly aren't the only two supplements I take, however they may be the most important. And I would be remiss to not remind the world, Nootropics Depot / there isn't a nootropics company in the world that comes close to their cutting edge products, customer service, the folks on the front lines, who astonishingly get the orders out so quickly, 100% of the time. And finally, the ownership who literally make me feel like family, is vital. From the owner, and down the ladder, are always so authentic with integrity, continue to blow my mind with the innovation of the products they continually offer, and they never stop bringing it 5 BIG

Pretty much every mineral supplement destroys my stomach but these have no gastro side effects for me. These supplements are no joke. I read up on competing absorption and whatnot so was taking separate from iron (which i am chronically deficient in). One night I decided to take an extra zinc before bed. About an hour or so later I experienced violent RLS. I get RLS when my iron stores get very very low. I took a handful of iron pills but I was screwed for the night. Usually when i take a few iron pills the RLS goes away within the hour (required for tyrosine hydroxylase) and I had already taken a bunch during the day. Did a bit more digging and zinc not only competes with iron it can also lower serum ferritin by a separate mysterious mechanism. So these pills are strong. I played around and to prevent the RLS I can only take one pill, in the am, then 9 iron pills (Optifer) in three divided doses starting at noon. If you have low iron stores be careful with these! So then to the amazing bit. I have a compromised immune system and had picked up demodex (if you don’t know what these are do not look them up, it will scar you for life, take my word on it) from my BF. These are just part of the normal skin flora for many people but on me they went out of control and were ruining my life. My dr was completely useless (but have you tried baby shampoo?) so I resorted to buying ivermectin from Mexico. It did help but was not the nuclear solution I had been hoping for. I took it once a week for six weeks to no avail, and was trying to resign myself to having this plague for life. After a week of taking the microzinc I was on my couch watching Netflix when I suddenly felt my face get hot and a bit puffy. I thought to myself “oh great, what now”. Much to my surprise, the demodex genocide had begun. My immune system was suddenly like “oh, hello. Who the f*ck are you?”. I had not taken the zinc for this reason so i was really shocked and excited. This was the only change in my life. I had to take a couple days off for the sake of my iron, and when i went back on microzinc my immune system went nuclear again. The only bad thing is due to me having an autoimmune disease..revving up my immune system is causing other problems. But I’m almost cleared of this blight and will scale back after that. Out of any supplement I have ever taken, this has had the most noticeable and tangible effect on my health.

This is truly an excellent product. I'm not one to normally write reviews, nor am I sponsored or have any ties to ND via kickbacks. However, I'm a very loyal customer and have been because ND is truly the gold standard of nootropics and supplements. Not only are the prices incredibly reasonable, but you know that you're getting exactly what you pay for. Just the fact that there's rigorous, gold-standard testing, should count for something. So many supplement companies sell fake products that can be incredibly hazardous. With ND, you know you're getting the exact, product, dosage, and purity, and just that peace of mind keeps me coming back, aside from the incredible benefits I get when using their supplements. I love the microzinc and it's the only zinc product I've taken that hasn't wrecked my stomach. The specialized capsules provide bonafide zinc, without causing GI distress, or competing with copper for absorption. You truly cannot go wrong here.

I am purchasing this not only for my family but also for a colleague who, desirous of supplementing Zinc for immunity benefits stumbled upon gastrointestinal issues with other brands (she is quite sensitive, magnesium does the same thing to her). I had her try this one and not so surprisingly she had no issues this micellar formulation, good job ND. We take this for the immunity benefits, to be honest none of us is actually feeling anything but I don't believe we are supposed to,

These are great and are my go-to zinc supplement. They do seem to be more bioavailable than other zinc supplements. they are also a pretty high dose, so sometimes I open it up and just dump half of one in my mouth. they don't have any strong taste.

Unfortunately, I get nausea taken on either an empty or full stomach. I still take it once a week just to make sure I balanced levels.

Took the entire bottle and noticed nothing yet. Not certain will continue with this brand yet. ND Admin: It's zinc... You don't feel it acutely. If you are taking zinc and feel things acutely, you are likely dosing too high, which is something you do not want to do with zinc long-term. This is a good daily dose for people to maintain healthy levels. It's not a megadose sort of thing.
