Reacted Zinc - 60 CT by Ortho Molecular Products – Immune Support Zinc Capsules
Reacted Zinc capsules by Ortho Molecular Products provide a single essential mineral in a vegetable capsule. This 60-capsule formula supplies 54 mg of zinc per capsule as TRAACS Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate, pairing zinc with the amino acid glycine rather than combining it with a broad multivitamin blend.
Zinc contributes to normal immune activity and the everyday work of maintaining cells. This concentrated formula is different from a low-dose nutritional top-up: one capsule exceeds the adult zinc upper intake level of 40 mg per day. Use it only with professional guidance, including a review of zinc already present in your multivitamin or other supplements.
Key Reacted Zinc - 60 CT Benefits
- Supports normal immune function by supplying zinc needed for the development and activity of immune cells.
- Contributes to protein synthesis, helping cells make the proteins used throughout the body's tissues.
- Supports DNA synthesis and normal cell division, fundamental processes involved in ongoing tissue maintenance.
- Provides an essential mineral involved in enzyme function and normal cellular communication.
How Reacted Zinc - 60 CT Works
Zinc acts as a working component of many enzymes and helps stabilize proteins that carry out cellular tasks. Some of those tasks involve reading genetic instructions, building proteins, and coordinating signals between cells. These roles explain why adequate zinc nutrition matters across several body systems rather than just one wellness goal.
The zinc bisglycinate chelate form describes zinc bound to glycine. It identifies how the mineral is supplied; it does not mean that a larger dose is automatically better. The relevant amount for your nutritional plan is the 54 mg of zinc listed per capsule, not the weight of the entire chelate.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Zinc: Supports normal immune-cell development and activity. Cells also use this essential mineral to help make proteins and DNA, linking zinc nutrition with normal tissue maintenance. Reacted Zinc supplies it as TRAACS Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate; the chelate is the mineral's delivery form, not an additional active ingredient.
Reacted Zinc - 60 CT Is Formulated For
- Adults whose healthcare professional has identified a reason for a concentrated zinc supplement.
- People reviewing a targeted mineral plan rather than adding overlapping zinc products without supervision.
- Adults who want a capsule format and can review the ingredient panel for individual sensitivities.

Additional zinc precautions: Each capsule supplies 54 mg zinc, above the adult upper intake level of 40 mg per day. High zinc intake can cause nausea, dizziness, headaches, gastric distress, vomiting, and loss of appetite. Taking 50 mg or more for weeks can inhibit copper absorption, reduce immune function, and lower HDL cholesterol. Use this strength only under professional supervision. Zinc can interact with quinolone and tetracycline antibiotics and penicillamine. Take these antibiotics at least 2 hours before or 4 to 6 hours after zinc; separate penicillamine and zinc by at least 1 hour, with pharmacist guidance. Thiazide diuretics can increase zinc loss; discuss use with your prescriber.
Frequently Asked Questions About Reacted Zinc - 60 CT
What are the benefits of Reacted Zinc - 60 CT?
Reacted Zinc supplies zinc for normal immune-cell activity, protein and DNA synthesis, and cell division. Ortho Molecular Products uses TRAACS Zinc Bisglycinate Chelate in this single-mineral formula, with 54 mg zinc per capsule. Those nutritional roles support everyday cellular maintenance, but more zinc is not necessarily more beneficial. Because this amount exceeds the adult upper intake level of 40 mg per day, the product belongs in a professionally supervised plan rather than an automatic addition to your daily multivitamin.
Who should take Reacted Zinc - 60 CT?
This concentrated zinc capsule is an option for adults whose healthcare professional has assessed their zinc intake and recommended this strength. It is not a routine low-dose supplement or a general recommendation for children. Each serving is one capsule, and the bottle contains 60 servings. Review other zinc-containing supplements before using it. The label directs pregnant or nursing individuals to consult their physician and asks all users to read the ingredient panel carefully before ingestion.
Are there any side effects of taking Reacted Zinc - 60 CT?
Yes. Zinc can cause nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, appetite loss, dizziness, or headaches. At 54 mg per capsule, prolonged use can impair copper absorption, immune function, and HDL cholesterol. Use professional supervision; discuss antibiotics, penicillamine, or thiazide diuretics with your pharmacist. The label warns about intolerance or allergy: stop and consult your physician after negative reactions. Consult your physician if pregnant or nursing, keep the product away from children, and do not use it with missing or damaged seals or signs of tampering. The complete label warnings and medication-spacing precautions appear above.
How does Reacted Zinc - 60 CT support overall health?
Zinc participates in enzyme activity and cellular communication, helping the body carry out normal protein production and cell maintenance. Reacted Zinc delivers this nutrient as a bisglycinate chelate rather than a blend of several active minerals. Its role is nutritional support, not a substitute for a varied diet. A healthcare professional should decide whether the 54 mg strength fits your needs and how long to use it, particularly because sustained high zinc intake can disrupt copper balance.
