Checked against public sources between July 21 and July 28, 2026 · LookCloser does not sell or recommend supplements.
Does the marketing hold up?
FDA recall appears in this brand's history. An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
“Couldn’t verify” means we looked and found no public proof — not a mark against the product. Most supplement claims cannot be independently verified by anyone, so grey is the normal state of this industry.

We read 1 lines from the package photograph. It is our transcript of the label, not the manufacturer’s panel, and it may be incomplete.
The public sources did not settle the marketing promises on this label.
Published research exists for ingredients in this formula. Whether this product’s doses match those studies could not be confirmed.
Ingredient research can support context, but it is not a trial of this exact product.
Headlines first. Open evidence only when you want the source trail.
An exact-product recall is a direct signal. A different product from the same firm is company context, not a strike against this item.
This recall is not about the product on this page. Pure Encapsulations, Inc. recalled a different product on November 17, 2017. FDA has since closed that case. The recalled item was “Pure Encapsulations Systemic Enzyme Complex DIETARY SUPPLEMENT 180 CAPSULES UPC: 7 66298 00862…”
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingEvery ingredient shows its real amount — nothing is hidden in a proprietary blend.
The panel gives a per-ingredient amount rather than hiding quantities inside a proprietary blend, so each one can be compared to published research.
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingThe barcode matches, so we are checking the right product rather than a look-alike.
Open Food Facts resolves 766298002521 to "Zinc 30" (Pure Encapsulations) — consistent with this listing.
Locked evidence record →Open the full source-linked findingA count that moves steadily is ordinary. A sudden burst is what deserves a closer look.
Written reviews rose from 548 to 693 between August 4, 2025 and August 21, 2026. The largest rise inside any single 30-day window was about 21, so the count moved in steps rather than in one burst.

The label amount is shown beside the range used in the linked ingredient studies.
30 mg per serving — within the 8–40 mg/day used in the linked studies.
Not a score. Studies disagree with each other and change over time, so this sits beside the evidence rather than counting toward it — it is here so you can read the sources yourself.
The panel lists 30 mg of zinc per serving. Studies we found used 8 mg–40 mg a day, so this sits inside that range.
Study ranges differ between trials and change as research changes. This is background reading, not a pass, a failure, or a recommendation.
