**Zinc** at 30mg per softgel — right at the top of the studied supplemental range (15–30mg) and well below the 40mg upper limit. The form here is bisglycinate chelate from Albion (TRAACS), which is one of the best-absorbed zinc forms and tends to be easier on your stomach than sulfate or oxide. At this dose, you're getting strong support for immune function, skin healing, and wound repair — the areas where zinc has the deepest clinical evidence.

The softgel also includes 250mg of cold-pressed **Pumpkin Seed Oil**, which has some preliminary research for prostate and urinary health but limited clinical backing compared to zinc itself. It's a minor addition rather than a therapeutic dose.

One thing to keep in mind: at 30mg daily over the long term, zinc can gradually lower your copper levels. You're still under the 40mg safety ceiling, but if you plan to take this indefinitely, pairing it with 1–2mg of copper is a common precaution.
