"Whole food zinc with vitamin C and raw probiotics for immune and skin health"
Overview
Garden of Life Vitamin Code RAW Zinc provides 30mg of zinc from a whole food source along with vitamin C and a RAW probiotic and enzyme blend. The 'RAW' designation means the nutrients are processed below 115°F to preserve cofactors and enzymes. Unlike isolated zinc supplements, this formula includes a fruit and vegetable blend that provides naturally occurring cofactors for better absorption. The addition of probiotics and enzymes supports digestion and immune function alongside the zinc.
