How it helps those with Long COVID

Caret Down

Individuals experiencing long COVID often report persistent symptoms such as fatigue, cognitive impairments, and weakened immune function. Zinc is vital for maintaining a robust immune system and modulating inflammatory responses. Supplementation with Thorne's Zinc Picolinate may help restore optimal zinc levels, potentially enhancing immune resilience and reducing inflammation. Adequate zinc levels are also associated with improved cognitive function and energy metabolism, which may alleviate some long COVID-related symptoms.

Scientific Explanation

Caret Down

Zinc is a trace element essential for numerous biological processes, including DNA synthesis, cell division, and enzymatic functions. It acts as a cofactor for superoxide dismutase, an antioxidant enzyme that mitigates oxidative stress by neutralizing free radicals. In the context of long COVID, zinc's immunomodulatory properties may help balance the immune response, potentially reducing chronic inflammation and supporting recovery. Zinc picolinate, the form used in Thorne's supplement, is chelated with picolinic acid, enhancing its absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and ensuring efficient utilization by the body.

FAQs

Caret Down

1) How do I take it?
Follow the label directions. Many adults take 1 capsule daily with food. If you also use iron, calcium, or magnesium, take zinc 2+ hours apart to avoid absorption competition.

2) Can I combine it with other supplements?
Zinc pairs well with vitamin C or quercetin. Avoid long-term high intakes (≥40 mg/day total from all sources) without clinician guidance, as excess zinc can lower copper over time.

3) Any safety notes?
Free from gluten, soy, and dairy. If you’re pregnant/nursing, have a medical condition, or take antibiotics (e.g., tetracyclines/quinolones) or penicillamine, consult your clinician and separate timing.
