Contains Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) 400mg per capsule. Zinc Information: Zinc plays a key role in maintaining vision, and it is present in high concentrations in the eye. Zinc deficiency can alter vision, and severe deficiency can cause changes in the retina (the back of the eye where an image is focused). Zinc might also have effects against viruses. It appears to lessen symptoms of the rhinovirus (common cold), but researchers cannot yet explain exactly how this works. In addition, there is some evidence that zinc has some antiviral activity against the herpes virus. |

Information on Zinc:
Zinc is essential for eyesight maintenance and is found in high amounts in the eye. A zinc deficit can affect vision, and a severe deficiency can result in retinal abnormalities (the back of the eye where an image is focused).
Zinc may possibly have antiviral properties. It appears to reduce the symptoms of the rhinovirus (common cold), but scientists are still unsure how it works. Furthermore, there is some evidence that zinc has anti-cancer properties.
