Description
Lamberts Zinc Plus Lozenges are honey and lemon flavoured food supplement lozenges containing zinc, vitamin C, riboflavin (vitamin B2), bee propolis and honey. Zinc and vitamin C both contribute to the normal function of the immune system. The lozenges dissolve in the mouth, so they are a practical option for adults and children who find tablets and capsules difficult to swallow.
Key Features
- Zinc and vitamin C: Each lozenge provides 2mg of zinc and 30mg of vitamin C (as ascorbic acid), and both nutrients contribute to the normal function of the immune system.
- Zinc as citrate: The zinc is in the citrate form, which the manufacturer chose because citrates are known to be readily absorbed.
- Dissolves in the mouth: The lozenges are slowly sucked, and can be used as a lozenge or as a zinc supplement.
- Directions for children and adults: The manufacturer gives a daily amount for children (3 lozenges) and a separate one for adults (up to 7 lozenges).
- Suitable for vegetarians: The lozenges are aspartame free and are sweetened with xylitol, dextrose and sorbitol.
