Zinc Glycine Sulphate (ZGS) is an inorganic salt compound composed of zinc, glycine, and sulfate ions. It is used as a source of zinc in dietary supplements and pharmaceutical products. ZGS is known for its bioavailability, as the glycine component enhances the absorption of zinc in the body. It is commonly used to support healthy immune function, skin health, wound healing, and to maintain normal taste and vision. ZGS is generally considered safe, but as with all dietary supplements, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before use. West Bengal Chemical Industries Limited is one of the leading Zinc Glycine Sulphate manufacturers and exporters in India. The chemical formula is ZnSO4·(C2H5NO2)2, and it is commonly used as a nutritional supplement to provide additional zinc.
