Why this product
Where NutraHerbal Zinc Capsule sits in the market
Zinc is one of the few micronutrients with a solid evidence base for immune function and a long-standing association with skin health. It is cheap to make, easy to label, and serves two audiences, immunity buyers in winter and acne-motivated buyers year-round.
Key ingredients
What it is built on
Vitamin C
Ascorbic acid
The pairing customers expect for immunity.
Benefits for your brand
What this SKU does for the business
Written for a brand owner deciding what to manufacture, not as consumer marketing copy, and without health claims we cannot stand behind.
01
A real evidence base
Zinc has recognised roles in immune function and skin health. Compared with most of this catalogue, the claims here are unusually easy to support.
02
Two audiences on one cheap SKU
Immunity buyers in winter and acne-motivated buyers year-round. Low production cost and two content streams.
03
Picolinate rather than oxide
Zinc oxide is cheaper and absorbs poorly. Picolinate is better absorbed and gentler on an empty stomach, and the cost difference is small.

Questions we actually get
Before you place the order
Is 15 mg the right dose?
It sits comfortably above Indian RDA and well below the tolerable upper limit. Higher doses over long periods can interfere with copper absorption, which we would rather avoid.
Can we claim immune support?
Zinc carries recognised structure-function claims for immune function in most markets. This is one of the easier labels in the catalogue.
Why add vitamin C?
Customers expect the pairing for immunity, it costs almost nothing, and it gives the label a second recognised nutrient.
