Zinc Carnosine Dr. Lynch Product Q&AUpdated 4 hours ago

Hi Lorena -

There is 16 mg of elemental zinc in 75 mg of zinc carnosine.

Mold really wipes out glutathione.

Consider:

• Glutathione Plus Lozenges: 1/2 a lozenge upon waking for him.
• Gut Nutrients Powder: 1/4 scoop mixed into a bite of applesauce upon waking to support a healthy gut lining. This has zinc carnosine plus other key ingredients to support a healthy gut lining.*

Hello Dr. Lynch, Can this form of zinc also help raise zinc levels if I'm deficient in zinc? I'm quite sensitive to new supplements so I want to start slowly. Can I open the capsule and add the amount I want to something like yogurt (dairy free/almond milk)

Hi there -

It can yes.

You may open the capsule and put into a bite of food vs mixing it in an entire bowl of yogurt.

Hi, Currently on Ppi Pantoprazole 40mg twice a day alongwith Sucralfate (since May 2024). Extremely tired of heartburn, Reflux , GERD & Gastritis/Ulcer symptoms. My wish is to be able to wean off medicine and be able to stop them altogether. I haven't had success so far :( I would like to know if Zn Carnosine can be taken while still on the above Pantoprazole and Sucralfate regimen. I asked my Gastroenterologist but he didn't know about Zn Carnosine. They only give medicine and don't study supplements. Please advise.

Hi AZT -

I hear you on this. Not easy struggling with this.

There's a few things going on that need support.

Consider:

• Gut Nutrients Powder: mix 1 scoop in a glass of filtered water and sip it. Do not drink it fast. Do this upon waking and an hour before eating. These ingredients support a healthy gut lining.* This has the zinc carnosine in it and many other researched supportive ingredients.
  OR if you are very taste sensitive or don't like powder supplements, then use Gut Nutrients capsules
• Gut Nutrients: take 5 capsules upon waking for the same reason above and take 5 before bed. This doesn't have the L Glutamine Powder in it as the Gut Nutrients Powder does. I prefer you take the Gut Nutrients Powder in the morning and the Gut Nutrients capsules at night - ideally.
• Bile Nutrients: 3 capsules before dinner
• Histamine Digest: 1 capsule with meals
• ProBiota HistaminX: 1 capsule after dinner

This combination is very supportive of gut health. After a week, you should start noticing significant changes for a healthy gut.*

and you can continue using your medications as needed while doing this.

Keep me posted.

Hi, Can Zn Carnosine help with GUT issues (like bloating, constipation/ diarrhea etc) in addition to healing the Stomach ( for issues like Gastritis/ Ulcer/ Acid Reflux etc)? I have been using Magnesium, Vit D, B Complex from Seeking Health and love them. A quick response will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, AZ

Hi AZ -

Glad to hear that you like the Seeking Health products :).

Typically Zinc Carnosine is more used to support a healthy gut lining.

It does not directly help with bloating, constipation, or diarrhea. However, some research indicates that it does have antibacterial effects against H. pylori.*

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8727261/

So it's possible that it may help in an indirect way if symptoms of bloating, constipation, and/or diarrhea were the result of something like that.* But there's no evidence for that.

Consider other types of gut support for these types of symptoms:

• Digestive Enzymes
• Bile Nutrients
• Gut Nutrients

Hope this helps :)

When is the ideal time of day to add zinc carnosine to one's supplemental routine? Many thanks for you all's help and amazing products.

Hi Elizabeth -

You're welcome - and thank you ;)

Consider:

• Zinc Carnosine: 1 capsule after breakfast and 1 capsule after dinner for the first week to support a healthy gut lining.* Then reduce to 1 capsule after dinner.

I was recommended a zinc carnosine tablet to either chew or swallow- the ingredients match on this product- why is this product just in a capsule for swallowing?

Hi Halley -

Zinc carnosine does not need to be in a chewable.

The capsule dissolves quickly in the stomach and delivers the contents there to support a healthy gut lining.*

If you prefer, you may open the capsule and put the contents onto a bite of food.

Does the SH zinc carnosine product use pepZinGi ? If not, what kind of zinc carnosine is in the product?

Hi SS -

Yes, it is the PepZinGI material.

We don't declare it on the label as we are pending a trademark agreement with them. We should have it on the next label.

Hi Dr Lynch, Is it recommended to take zinc carnosine vs regular zinc ( as in the zinc lozenge)? Thank you! Monica

Hi Monica

Zinc Carnosine is targeted to support gut health.

Zinc Lozenges are designed to support a healthy immune system and general zinc blood levels.
