Chalky coating
"Efficacy was good, but I found the coating to be chalky and very easily dissolved, so it was occasionally hard to swallow."

"Efficacy was good, but I found the coating to be chalky and very easily dissolved, so it was occasionally hard to swallow."
"Picking up strength, after 2 weeks of daily use, able to exercise longer and hair has more body, nails shiny and stronger. Slow subtle changes, but definitely happening."
"Along with Selenium they both work well together"
"I was already taking other zinc, I just decided to go back to this one. Well absorbed. Easy to take, no bad taste or anything."
"Works SO well with Vit C. . . . haven't had a cold since winter 2024!"
"My hubby and myself have taken this for a few years now. Have not had the flu or a cold for a long time now."
"A good-sized tablet, so easy to swallow and with the benefit of Thompson's consistent quality."
"It's great that these zinc tablets aren't coated, as they're more 'natural,' but the shape makes for difficult swallowing, if you have trouble. A small capsule shape goes down much easier, while this tablet sticks in my throat. I've tried chewing, but it's like eating chalk - most unpleasant. If Thompson's brought these out in a better shape, I'd buy them again, but, as it is, I won't be able to finish the bottle. . ."
"This is a very compact dimple way to increase your zinc intake if that is what you require. One tablet a day will s all it takes. Simple and effective and NZ made."
"During the pandemic and thereafter zinc has been an amazing benefit to my wellbeing and ability to breeze through and avoid illness. I love that it's a cheap and easy way to stay ahead of chills and ills"
