Description:

 

Zinc picolinate supplementation can help to control acne. It also functions as a general immune booster. Zinc picolinate can also help your body to rid itself of many types of toxins; doctors commonly recommend this supplement to treat exposure to lead. They also commonly recommend zinc picolinate to pregnant people, since pregnancy can result in a zinc deficiency, and zinc is required for the proper development of the fetus.

Additionally, zinc picolinate can help prevent and treat conditions such as prostate enlargement, liver disease and cirrhosis; and zinc, combined with other oxidants including vitamins C, E and beta-carotene, may be helpful in slowing the progression of age-related macular degeneration.

 

Which is better zinc picolinate or zinc glycinate?

Both are excellent choices. Although zinc bisglycinate has data showing slightly better absorption compared to zinc picolinate, zinc picolinate has a longer history of use as a supplement and, as such, has been the subject of more clinical studies.
