What is oyster extract?

Natural zinc, concentrated from the sea

Oysters are considered one of the richest natural sources of zinc. Our NUTRIEST oyster extract is a freeze-dried concentrate made from 100 % oyster meat, so it provides zinc just as it occurs in nature: bound in a real food matrix rather than as an isolated salt from the lab.

This matrix brings more than zinc. Every serving also contains copper, selenium and vitamin B12, together with other trace elements and natural amino acids such as taurine. That is what distinguishes a genuine oyster extract from a synthetic single-nutrient product. Free from additives, tested for contaminants and gently processed.

Information about Oyster Extract Capsules – Pure Oyster Supplement with Natural Zinc

About the product

Why oysters are a top natural source of zinc

Ask where zinc is found and one answer almost always comes first: oysters. Few foods contain zinc in such high concentration. The reason lies in the food matrix: the zinc in oyster tissue is bound to proteins and amino acids, in the form the body is used to taking in from food. A freeze-dried oyster extract preserves this matrix and makes it practical as a capsule, without having to eat fresh oysters.

What makes oysters interesting is that they provide more than zinc. They are one of the few foods that contain zinc and selenium together in notable amounts (along with copper and vitamin B12).

Zinc, copper, selenium and B12: what the nutrients do

Zinc, copper, selenium and vitamin B12 have clearly defined roles in the body. Officially authorised health claims exist for all four:

Zinc

  • contributes to the normal function of the immune system
  • contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress
  • contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood
  • contributes to normal fertility and reproduction
  • contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, hair and nails
  • contributes to normal cognitive function

Selenium

  • contributes to normal thyroid function
  • contributes to the normal function of the immune system
  • contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress
  • contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and nails

Copper

  • contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism
  • contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system
  • contributes to normal iron transport in the body
  • contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress

Vitamin B12

  • contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism
  • contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue
  • contributes to the normal function of the nervous system
  • contributes to normal red blood cell formation

Zinc is involved in a large number of enzymatic processes in the body. With a natural oyster extract, you get all four nutrients from a single food.

Oyster extract or synthetic zinc?

A synthetic zinc product provides an isolated zinc salt, a single substance, often with acidifiers and anti-caking agents. A genuine oyster extract delivers zinc in its natural context, just as it occurs in food. For anyone who prefers to get nutrients from real food rather than the lab, that is the key difference.

Who is pure oyster extract for?

The extract is for anyone who wants to cover their zinc, selenium, copper and B12 intake from a natural source, as part of a mindful, nutrient-dense lifestyle or a diet with few animal products. As a neutral-tasting capsule, it fits easily into everyday life without eating fresh oysters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is zinc good for?

Zinc contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, as well as to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood and of normal skin, hair and nails. It is involved in a large number of enzymatic processes in the body.

Where is zinc found?

Oysters are one of the richest natural sources of zinc. Other sources include red meat, organ meats, pumpkin seeds and pulses. Pure oyster extract concentrates this oyster zinc in capsule form.

What does zinc do in the body?


Zinc is involved in over 300 enzymatic processes – including cell division, metabolism, and immune function. It is approved for use in supporting normal cognitive function and normal immune system function.

What is selenium good for?

Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function and normal immune system function and helps protect cells from oxidative stress. Oysters are one of the few foods that provide both selenium and zinc.

Which foods contain zinc and selenium?


The oyster is one of the few foods that contains high concentrations of both zinc and selenium – as well as copper and vitamin B12. Other sources of both nutrients include organ meats, fish, eggs, and Brazil nuts. Pure oyster extract combines all four nutrients in one capsule.

How many mg of zinc per day?


The official reference value for zinc is 10 mg per day. The amount of zinc provided by a daily serving of Pure Oyster Extract is listed in the nutritional information table. The recommended intake should not be exceeded.

Are oysters healthy?


Oysters are exceptionally nutrient-dense: they provide high-quality protein and are the richest natural source of zinc, as well as selenium, copper, and vitamin B12. An oyster extract makes these nutrients available without having to eat fresh oysters.

Is oyster extract suitable during pregnancy?


Raw oysters are not recommended during pregnancy. Oyster extract in capsule form is a freeze-dried food concentrate and differs from raw oysters – however, pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before taking any supplements.
