Benefits of Lamberts Zincatest® 100ml
(Zinc Sulphate Heptahydrate in Purified Water – A Simple Taste Test for Zinc Status)

Lamberts Zincatest® is a unique liquid formula containing zinc sulphate (as heptahydrate) in purified water. It is designed not just as a zinc supplement, but also as a functional taste test to help assess your body's zinc levels—a method commonly used by healthcare professionals.

What is Zincatest®?

Zincatest® delivers zinc in a liquid form, allowing it to be used as a taste test for zinc status. When taken by mouth, the intensity of taste perception can provide an indication of the body's zinc levels. A strong, immediate taste suggests adequate levels, while a delayed or absent taste may indicate a deficiency.

Key Ingredient & Function

Zinc Sulphate Heptahydrate

Provides elemental zinc, a vital trace mineral involved in over 300 enzyme systems, essential for:

Immune system strength and infection resistance

Cell growth and repair, especially for skin, hair, and nails

Cognitive function and mood balance

Vision support and prevention of age-related macular degeneration

Hormonal balance, particularly testosterone regulation and reproductive health

Antioxidant protection from free radical damage

Zinc Taste Test – How It Works

The taste test is a simple, non-invasive way to gauge zinc status:

Take 5ml (one teaspoon) and hold it in your mouth for up to 30 seconds.

Observe the taste:

Strong, unpleasant metallic taste = likely adequate zinc levels.

No taste or delayed recognition = potential zinc deficiency.

Note: This is a general guide and should be supported by dietary assessment or clinical testing where necessary.

This product may be used in one of two ways:

(i) as a food supplement and
(ii) as a taste test to indicate zinc status.
(i) As a food supplement: Take one 5ml spoonful of Zincatest® daily. You may wish to dilute this liquid in water or orange juice.
(ii) As a taste test to indicate zinc status: Take the test at least one hour after food or drink. Simply add 5ml of Zincatest® solution to 60ml of water and immediately swirl one 5ml spoonful of the diluted mixture around in the mouth for 10 seconds (this mixture can then be swallowed or spat out).

The taste sensation that results from this test provides an indication of zinc status:

1. Tasteless like water: Low.
2. Slightly dry furry mineral-like or even sweet taste develops after a few seconds: Marginally Low.
3. Definite taste which intensifies with time: Marginally Positive.
4. Strong unpleasant taste noticed immediately: Positive.

If response corresponds to 1 or 2 above use a zinc supplement or Zincatest® until response improves to 3 or 4.
A three to six month course may be necessary.

A fresh solution should be made up each time a test is required.
