With zinc, it is not just about the amount on the label, but also about the form it is in. This zinc bisglycinate from Vit4ever is a single-form supplement: only zinc bisglycinate, combined with the amino acid L-histidine, without any other zinc compounds mixed in. Each tablet provides 25mg of elemental zinc. A bottle contains 400 tablets, enough for over a year at one tablet per day. Interesting for anyone looking for a consistent zinc source with a clear, unmixed composition.
The difference between zinc supplements lies, among other things, in what the zinc is attached to. In zinc bisglycinate, each zinc particle is linked to two molecules of glycine, an amino acid. Such a link is called a chelate. Vit4ever also sells a zinc complex in which three forms are combined: bisglycinate, gluconate, and citrate. This product is deliberately the opposite of that. There is only one zinc compound in the tablet, namely bisglycinate. For those who prefer working with a single raw material instead of a combination of three salt forms, this is the logical choice. You know exactly which form of zinc you are taking and in what quantity, without the dosage being split over multiple chelates at the same time.
L-histidine is an amino acid that your body produces only in small quantities on its own. In addition, each tablet contains 25 mg of L-histidine. That is an addition you will not find in most individual zinc tablets, and certainly not in a complex with multiple zinc forms together.
The zinc bisglycinate in this product comes from Albion, the company that pioneered the amino acid chelate technology. Many manufacturers do not state exactly which form or source of zinc is used. Vit4ever deliberately chooses this standardized raw material, recognizable by the name Albion on the label. This makes this product a targeted choice for anyone looking for a specific, well-documented form of zinc instead of an anonymous mineral salt.
The tablets contain no copper. With 25mg of zinc per tablet, you get 250% of the reference intake; stick to the recommended daily dosage. Furthermore, there is no magnesium stearate, flavoring, coloring, or gelatin. The tablets are 100% vegan, lactose-free, and gluten-free, and an independent German laboratory tests every batch for heavy metals, molds, and bacteria. Zinc contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to the protection of cells against oxidative stress. In addition, zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, normal hair, and normal nails. Zinc also contributes to normal cognitive function and to the maintenance of normal vision.
In short: a single-form zinc, supplemented with L-histidine and without unnecessary additives or extra zinc compounds. With 400 tablets in a bottle, you have a consistent, recognizable zinc source at home for a long time.
The zinc in these tablets comes as bisglycinate from Albion, the founder of the amino acid chelate technique. The bond between zinc and glycine remains stable in your stomach and only releases the zinc in the small intestine.
In addition to 25mg of elemental zinc, each tablet contains 25mg of L-histidine, a combination you rarely see in individual zinc tablets.
With 1 tablet per day, one pot lasts for more than thirteen months. So you don't have to reorder often.
The tablets are free from magnesium stearate, flavourings, colourings and gelatine. They are 100% vegan, lactose-free and gluten-free. An independent German laboratory checks every batch for heavy metals and germs.

Forms in which zinc is bound to an amino acid, such as bisglycinate, are well absorbed. The zinc travels via the amino acid transport pathway in your intestine and does not have to compete with other minerals. Forms like zinc oxide, on the other hand, are absorbed much less effectively.
Take the tablet with a meal, preferably one containing protein. Protein helps your body absorb zinc. Zinc can sometimes feel heavy on an empty stomach, so taking it with food is usually more comfortable.
The difference lies in the compound. In bisglycinate, zinc is bonded to two glycine molecules. In zinc gluconate, zinc is bonded to gluconic acid.
No, this product does not contain copper. Zinc and copper compete for absorption, and only from around 45mg of zinc per day is it recommended to take copper separately. With 25mg per tablet, you are well below that, so for most people, separate copper is not necessary.
L-histidine is an amino acid that can bind and transport zinc. By including it, your body gains a second route to process zinc, in addition to the bisglycinate itself. It is an additive rarely found in standard zinc tablets.
This product contains exclusively zinc bisglycinate, a single, well-researched form. Vit4ever's Zinc Complex, on the other hand, combines three forms in one tablet: bisglycinate, gluconate, and citrate. Both are a suitable choice; the difference lies in whether you prefer a single raw material or a varied mix of zinc forms.
