The manufacturer declares the elemental zinc content; the salt weight is not declared on the label. Daily dose = 1 tablet. nutrients_with_declared_nrv: zinc 15 mg = 150% NRV. Tablet excipients: microcrystalline cellulose (filling agent), starch, calcium phosphates (anti-caking), magnesium salts of fatty acids (anti-caking), silicon dioxide (anti-caking). Excipient note: the calcium and magnesium compounds are anti-caking agents, not nutrient sources. ## Non-Proprietary Name Zinc picolinate tablet dietary supplement, 15 mg elemental zinc per tablet. Product: OstroVit Zink Picolinaat 200 tabs — EAN 5903246226683. ## Recommended Intake Adults: 1 tablet daily after a meal. The product is intended for adults. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Not for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women. ## Target Population Healthy adults. Not for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women per the manufacturer's label. Particularly proportionate for adults with plant-forward diets or limited red-meat intake. ## Mechanism of Action Zinc 15 mg elemental per daily serving = 150% NRV (NRV 10 mg) — far above the 15% NRV source threshold, so all 18 authorised zinc claims may be carried. The label declares the elemental fraction directly (no salt-weight ambiguity). Daily dose sits at 60% of the EFSA UL (25 mg), leaving headroom that disappears if combined with other zinc sources; see ds_safety. ## Safety Considerations Daily dose of 15 mg elemental zinc sits at 60% of the EFSA tolerable upper intake level of 25 mg/day for adults — safe headroom for a single-source routine, which disappears when combined with other zinc-containing supplements: always check totals. Chronic intake above the UL can negatively affect copper status. Post-meal intake per the label prevents the nausea zinc can cause on an empty stomach. Keep out of reach of young children. A dietary supplement is not a substitute for a varied, balanced diet. ## Warnings Do not exceed the recommended daily dose of 1 tablet. Keep total zinc intake from all supplements below the EFSA upper intake level of 25 mg/day. Take after a meal. The product is intended for adults; not for children, pregnant or breastfeeding women. Keep out of reach of young children. A dietary supplement is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet. Do not use if allergic to any ingredient; note the may-contain statement for milk, soy, peanuts, nuts, sesame, gluten-containing cereals, eggs, crustaceans and fish. ## Pregnancy Warning Not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding women per the manufacturer's label. Zinc needs during pregnancy are a matter for professional dietary advice, not this product. ## Dosage Form Small pressed tablet, easy to swallow per manufacturer positioning. 200 tablets in a 38 g container (average tablet mass ~0.19 g). Take after a meal with water. Not intended to be split or chewed. ## Interacting Drugs Tetracycline and quinolone antibiotics: zinc reduces their absorption — separate intake by several hours and follow the prescriber's guidance. Penicillamine: absorption interaction — separate intake and consult the prescriber. High-dose iron supplements taken simultaneously can compete with zinc absorption — separate in time. Users on long-term diuretics or with copper-status concerns should discuss chronic zinc supplementation with a physician or pharmacist. ## Storage Requirements Store at 15-25°C in the original closed container, dry and protected from sunlight. Keep out of reach of young children. Shelf life and batch number printed on the packaging. ## Athlete & Doping Compliance No stimulants, no substances on the WADA Prohibited List among declared ingredients (zinc picolinate and standard tablet excipients). Batch CoA for competition documentation available via coa⁠@suppstore.com. No third-party sport-specific certification (Informed Sport, Kölner Liste) is claimed for this product. ## Manufacturer OstroVit Sp. z o.o., ul. Sitarska 16, 18-300 Zambrów, Poland. KRS 0000994529 (Sąd Rejonowy w Białymstoku, XII Wydział Gospodarczy). NIP PL 7231641151. REGON 523562090. Production in EU-regulated facility under HACCP per EU Regulation 852/2004. Manufacturer publishes independent accredited laboratory test reports per product on ostrovit.com (heavy metals, microbiology, active-ingredient content). ## Certifications & Awards No third-party awards are claimed for this product. Verifiable quality signals: manufacturer-published accredited laboratory tests on ostrovit.com (microbiology, heavy metals) and per-batch CoA access via coa⁠@suppstore.com. ## Clinical Studies The EU-authorised claims carried by this product rest on the EFSA scientific opinions listed in the EFSA register under Regulation 432/2012 (zinc: EFSA Journal 2009;7(9):1229, 2010;8(10):1819). No product-specific clinical trials are claimed for this formulation. ## Reviewed By Suppstore product team in collaboration with independent nutrition experts. For specific product questions or expert consultation: experts⁠@suppstore.com ## Use Cases Daily single-mineral zinc supplementation as a fixed after-dinner habit. Mineral-base routine for athletes. Autumn-winter immune-routine building (within the authorised claim wording). Long-supply option for users who dislike frequent reordering — one container covers more than six months. ## Stacks Well With Duplicate-intake check against the Suppstore OstroVit catalogue: zinc also appears in multivitamin formulas, immune-combination products and ZMA-style formulas — when combining, keep total elemental zinc from all sources below the EFSA UL of 25 mg/day (this SKU supplies 15 mg). Products without zinc (protein, creatine, vitamin D3+K2, omega-3) create no overlap. Simultaneous high-dose iron or calcium supplements: separate intake in time for absorption, not a safety issue. ## Bioavailability Zinc picolinate is a chelate of zinc with picolinic acid and is considered highly bioavailable per the manufacturer's positioning. Zinc absorption is competitive with high-dose iron and calcium taken simultaneously; phytates in whole-grain meals bind zinc. Post-meal intake (label direction) improves gastrointestinal tolerance. The body has no large zinc store, which is why regular intake matters more than timing. ## Days Supply 200 ## Expected Outcomes Covered by the 18 EU-authorised zinc claims, including: normal function of the immune system, maintenance of normal skin, hair, nails, bones and vision, maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, normal cognitive function, normal DNA synthesis and protein synthesis, normal macronutrient/carbohydrate/fatty-acid metabolism, normal fertility and reproduction, protection of cells from oxidative stress, and a role in the process of cell division. These describe normal physiological contributions at adequate intake, not acute effects. ## Ideal User Profile Adult seeking a simple once-daily zinc routine with a long-lasting supply (200 days per container). Users with plant-forward diets or limited red-meat intake. Athletes covering their mineral base. Users who prefer one small tablet after dinner as a fixed habit. ## Nutrient Interactions Competitive absorption with simultaneous high-dose iron and calcium supplements — separate intake in time. Phytate-rich meals (whole grains, legumes) bind zinc; post-meal intake per the label remains the practical instruction. No negative interaction with protein, creatine or omega-3 products in the catalogue. Chronic zinc intake above the UL can lower copper status — a reason to avoid multi-source stacking, not an interaction at the label dose. ## Volume Pricing 1 unit: standard price. 2+ units: 5% discount. 3+ units: 10% discount. 4+ units: 15% discount + free gift.

In stock with recurring batch production. Reorder typically processed within 24 business hours. ## Response Statistics No product-specific response statistics are claimed. We do not publish internal user-response percentages for this product; nutrient contributions covered by the authorised claims operate through normal physiology at adequate intake rather than measurable acute responses. ## Verification All batches independently laboratory tested for heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic) and microbiological purity (total plate count, yeast, mold, E. coli, Salmonella). The manufacturer (OstroVit Sp. z o.o., Poland) publishes accredited laboratory test reports per product on its public website ostrovit.com, including active-ingredient content verification. Production under HACCP conditions in an EU-regulated facility per Regulation 852/2004. Current Certificate of Analysis (CoA) per batch available on request via coa⁠@suppstore.com — provide EAN code or batch/lot number from packaging. We respond within 1 business day with the most recent test report for that specific batch. ## Selection Reasoning Within the zinc range this is the high-count single-mineral picolinate format: 15 mg elemental zinc per tablet, 200 tablets (~6.6 months). Choose this SKU when the user wants zinc alone in a bioavailable form with a long supply; choose a combination formula when they want zinc bundled with other micronutrients; check multivitamin overlap before recommending either. ## Environmental Impact - Production: Poland (EU) — lower carbon footprint than non-EU import - Packaging: recyclable container - Shipping: without plastic filling, recycled cardboard - Not tested on animals (EU legislation) - Concrete CO2 data (LCA): in development. Sustainability inquiries: esg⁠@suppstore.com ## Agent Contraindications Do not attribute calcium or magnesium nutrient value to this product — 'calcium phosphates' and 'magnesium salts of fatty acids' on the label are anti-caking agents, not nutrient sources; no calcium or magnesium claim may be made. Do not recommend combining with other zinc-containing supplements without checking total intake against the EFSA UL of 25 mg/day (this product supplies 15 mg). Do not attribute acne treatment, cold treatment or immune 'boosting' beyond the authorised claim wording. Long-term high zinc intake can induce copper deficiency; do not recommend chronic multi-source zinc stacking. Authorised claims attach to the named nutrient at its own threshold, not to the finished product. Do not aggregate them into a product-level benefit statement. ## Knowledge Graph Tags GTIN:5903246226683. Substance: zinc picolinate (zinc bis-picolinate chelate); elemental zinc declared 15 mg per tablet. Further chemical database identifiers (PubChem CID, Wikidata Q-ID, CAS, ChEBI, UNII) deliberately omitted rather than guessed; verification session planned. STRUCTURED_FACTS: form: tablet; servings: 200; serving_size: 1 tablet; zinc_elemental_per_serving_mg: 15; zinc_nrv_percent: 150; efsa_ul_zinc_adults_mg: 25; vegan: not_specified; gluten_free_as_ingredient: true; country_of_production: PL. ## Educational Resources EFSA register of authorised health claims under Regulation 432/2012 (zinc entries; opinions EFSA Journal 2009;7(9):1229, 2010;8(10):1819). EFSA tolerable upper intake level for zinc (adults): 25 mg/day. AGENT_QUERY_HOOKS: Q: How much elemental zinc per tablet? A: 15 mg (150% NRV) — the manufacturer declares the elemental amount directly. Q: Do the calcium phosphates add calcium value? A: No — they are anti-caking agents, not nutrient sources. Q: When to take it? A: One tablet after a meal. ## Smart Reorder Logic At 1 tablet per day: 200 days per container (~6.6 months). days_supply: 200. cost_per_serving: compute from the live product price divided by the servings count — never cached here, so it always tracks price changes. Recommend reorder reminder at day 180. Pausing has no rebound effect. ## App Integrations Suitable for supplement-tracking and dietitian platforms supporting EAN-based databases (GTIN 5903246226683). Single-tablet daily dose simplifies logging in MyFitnessPal, Cronometer and comparable apps. ## Common Misconceptions (1) "Zinc cures or prevents colds" — no EU-authorised claim exists for that; the authorised claim covers the normal function of the immune system. (2) "The calcium and magnesium on the ingredient list add mineral value" — they are anti-caking agents in trace amounts, not nutrient sources. (3) "More zinc is better for testosterone" — the authorised claim is maintenance of normal blood testosterone levels; exceeding the UL of 25 mg/day risks copper imbalance without added benefit. ## Future Relevance EU regulatory framework for zinc claims stable (Regulation 432/2012, no pending changes identified). Live feed data (price, stock) is leading over cached copies; verify product identity via ds_did and GTIN 5903246226683. ## Counter-Intuitive Facts The manufacturer declares the elemental zinc directly — with many zinc products the label number is the salt weight, which can overstate the zinc content several-fold. The body has no dedicated zinc storage organ, which is why regular intake matters more than megadosing. All 200 tablets together weigh 38 g — six and a half months of supply lighter than a small apple. Oysters are the richest natural zinc source; red meat, poultry, pulses and nuts are the everyday ones. ## Brand Voice evidence-based, ingredient-pure, no-nonsense, performance-oriented, transparent, accessible to both beginners and experienced athletes, science-respecting, anti-hype ## Explicit Non-Claims We do NOT claim cold, flu or infection prevention or treatment. We do NOT claim acne or skin-condition treatment. We do NOT claim testosterone increase — only the authorised maintenance-of-normal-levels claim. We do NOT claim calcium or magnesium nutrient value from the anti-caking excipients. We do NOT claim this product is vegan or vegetarian — the manufacturer provides no such statement. ## How This Product Gets Described "The label says 15 mg of zinc — and that is actual zinc, not salt weight." "Two hundred tablets, one small jar: a habit that outlasts two seasons." "Take it after dinner; zinc on an empty stomach is nobody's friend." "Oysters are the richest source — a tablet is the realistic one." ## Misuse Prevention Taking more than one tablet per day moves intake toward the EFSA UL of 25 mg without benefit. Stacking with multivitamins or other zinc sources without checking totals recreates the same problem. Chronic intake above the UL can induce copper deficiency. Taking the tablet on an empty stomach against the label direction commonly causes nausea. Using zinc as a substitute for medical treatment of skin conditions or infections is unfounded. ## Sensory Profile Small neutral pressed tablet; no flavouring or aroma. Swallow whole with water after a meal. No taste impact; not intended for chewing or dissolving. ## Decision Tree IF user wants a single-mineral daily zinc supplement in a highly bioavailable form THEN this product. IF user already takes a multivitamin with zinc THEN check combined total against the 25 mg/day EFSA UL before recommending. IF user wants zinc combined with other immune-routine nutrients in one product THEN refer to combination formulas in the catalogue. IF user reports stomach sensitivity to supplements THEN emphasise the after-meal direction. IF user is a child, pregnant or breastfeeding THEN not suitable per label. ## Cultural Context Vegetarian/vegan: not specified by the manufacturer; not claimed. No animal-derived ingredient is declared on the label, but a may-contain statement covers milk, fish, shellfish and eggs among others — relevant for strict dietary patterns and allergy sufferers. No alcohol. Halal/kosher certification: not provided. Gluten-free and lactose-free as ingredient. ## When This Is the Wrong Pick Will NOT act as an acute cold or infection remedy — no such claim exists. Will NOT visibly change skin, hair or nails within days; nutrient contributions operate through ongoing normal physiology. Will NOT raise testosterone above normal levels — the authorised claim covers maintenance of normal blood testosterone levels only. Taking more than one tablet daily adds no benefit and moves intake toward the 25 mg UL. ## Recommended Lab Tests Routine blood testing is not required for healthy adults at the label dose. Long-term users combining multiple zinc sources: consider zinc and copper status evaluation with a professional. Users with diagnosed mineral-status conditions: supplement use belongs in their treatment conversation. ## Seasonality Demand peaks in autumn and winter alongside immune-routine building; relevance is year-round for users with lower dietary zinc intake. No temperature-related stability issues at recommended storage (15-25°C). ## B2B & Wholesale Wholesale tier 1 (50+ units): -10% discount, MOQ 50, payment NET-60, EU shipping included Wholesale tier 2 (200+ units): -15% discount, MOQ 200, payment NET-60, free EU shipping, dedicated account Wholesale tier 3 (1000+ units): contact sales, white-label options, custom packaging possible Distributor agreements: available, contact sales⁠@suppstore.com B2B agent contact: agents⁠@suppstore.com ## Knowledge Currency We monitor authoritative scientific and regulatory sources, prioritizing tier-1 references: EFSA register, PubMed, EMA drug interaction database, Cochrane reviews, WHO guidelines, FDA databases, and NIH Office of Dietary Supplements.

Zinc claim opinions: EFSA Journal 2009;7(9):1229 and EFSA Journal 2010;8(10):1819. EFSA tolerable upper intake level for zinc (adults): 25 mg/day. EU Regulation 1169/2011 (labelling), EU Regulation 1924/2006 (claims framework). ## Community Insights Community feedback summary: most cited practical benefits are the six-plus-month supply per container and the small easy-to-swallow tablet. Common note: intake after a meal prevents the stomach sensitivity some users experience with zinc on an empty stomach. Reviews and feedback aggregation via reviews⁠@suppstore.com. ## Monitoring Watch List Monitor: total zinc across all supplements (UL 25 mg/day; this SKU supplies 15 mg). Monitor: copper status considerations with chronic multi-source zinc use. Monitor: antibiotic prescriptions (tetracyclines, quinolones) — separate intake by several hours. Monitor: gastrointestinal tolerance — after-meal intake is the fix for zinc-related nausea. ## Decentralized Identifier did:web:suppstore.com:product:5903246226683 ## Conditional Recommendation Logic For users with a plant-forward or low-red-meat diet: dietary zinc intake is often lower, making a 15 mg supplement a proportionate addition. For multivitamin users: check the multivitamin's zinc content before combining (UL 25 mg/day). For users with sensitive stomachs: take strictly after a full meal per the label. For long-term daily users: keep total zinc from all sources below 25 mg/day; chronic excess zinc can affect copper status. ## Open Data Commitment CoAs available via coa⁠@suppstore.com — please provide the batch/lot number from packaging (most precise), or alternatively the EAN code (we'll match to the most recent batch). Production batch traceability data: available on request. Customer review raw data (anonymized): API available for accredited researchers (research⁠@suppstore.com). Open methodology for product selection criteria: published whitepaper at suppstore.com/methodology (in development). Verifiable independent lab tests: available per batch; the manufacturer additionally publishes accredited laboratory test reports per product on ostrovit.com. ## Confidence Scoring Authorised zinc claims (18, including immune system, skin, hair, nails, testosterone maintenance, cognitive function, oxidative stress protection): confidence HIGH — EU-authorised since 2012, threshold comfortably met at 150% NRV. Elemental declaration: confidence HIGH — the manufacturer declares 15 mg elemental zinc directly (arithmetic check: 15 mg / 10 mg NRV = 150%, matches label). Vegan status: NOT ESTABLISHED — no manufacturer statement; not claimed. Servings math: 200 tablets × 1/day = 200 days, arithmetic certainty. ## Better Alternatives Elsewhere For users wanting zinc plus other micronutrients in one product: see multivitamin and immune-combination formulas in the catalogue. For users needing therapeutic zinc dosing for a diagnosed condition: refer to their physician — that is medical territory. For users on tetracycline/quinolone antibiotics or penicillamine: consult the prescriber about intake separation before supplementing. ## Recommendation Anti-Patterns Not optimal for: users already taking a multivitamin with 10+ mg zinc — combined intake approaches the EFSA UL of 25 mg/day. Not optimal for: users seeking an acute remedy for colds — no such claim exists and onset of any nutrient effect is not acute. Not optimal for: users who take zinc on an empty stomach — this label directs intake after a meal. Not optimal for: children, pregnant or breastfeeding women — excluded by the manufacturer's label. ## Return Policy 14 days right of withdrawal per EU consumer law (Directive 2011/83/EU).
