Description

Enhanced Zinc Lozenges by Life Extension provides a special “ionic formula” to deliver a boost of seasonal immune support.

Zinc stimulates the activity of about 300 enzymes1 and fortifies the immune system.² Taking the best zinc lozenge is important for maintaining the body’s natural defense system during the cold season-and throughout the year.

Immune Support for Seasonal Changes

Scientific evidence is accumulating that zinc acetate is the preferred zinc compound to provide enhanced seasonal immune support. Zinc acetate releases 100% of its zinc as ionic zinc-positively charged zinc ions. Zinc acetate lozenges have been shown to strongly support immune function.^3-5 Life Extension® Enhanced Zinc Lozenges provide zinc acetate with no other ingredients that could reduce the delivery of these immune-supportive, positively charged zinc ions. Enhanced Zinc Lozenges come in a naturally flavored peppermint lozenge. *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
