Product Use |
Zinc citrate is a compound made of zinc and citric acid. Both zinc and citric acid are naturally occurring substances and can also be synthesized from other sources. Zinc citrate can be produced in a lab by mixing zinc oxide or zinc carbonate with citric acid. It can also be derived from natural sources such as lemons, oranges, and other citrus fruits, which naturally contain citric acid. These fruits are juiced and then the citric acid is extracted and combined with zinc to form zinc citrate.
Zinc citrate can also be sourced from certain foods such as legumes, nuts, and seeds, which are rich sources of zinc. These foods are processed to extract the zinc and then combined with citric acid to form zinc citrate.
