What type of zinc is in this? I heard that zinc orotate is the most easily absorbed.

I found this in my research, it's ranked #3 by BodyNutrition, article is dated MARCH 22, 2019 Ranking the best zinc supplements of 2019 3. Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Zinc Garden of Life makes their name by offering vitamin and mineral supplements that derive their ingredients from real food sources. Their Vitamin Code Raw Zinc supplement is no different: it delivers 15 mg of zinc and 30 mg of vitamin C per tablet (100% and 50% of your recommended daily intake, respectively), but alongside, it includes a raw blend of organic fruits and vegetables. This raw blend is mostly recognizable plants: beets, apples, broccoli, Brussels sprout, and so on. Thought this certainly raises the cost of the supplement, it means that you are deriving your zinc from totally natural sources. Additionally, you are likely to get some additional benefit based on the phytonutrients, antioxidants, and other useful and nutritious extracts in the fruit and vegetable concentrates included in Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Zinc. It also includes a blend of probiotics and a mineral blend from spirulina, ancient peat, and cracked-wall chlorella, though the exact benefits of each of these is not particularly clear. Amazingly, even though the zinc is derived from plant extracts instead of a lab-measured pure zinc salt, Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Zinc fares very well on purity tests. Each tablet contains only a few percentage points more zinc than the label states, which indicates that this product is very well-made with careful quality control.

I heard excess zinc can lead to a copper deficiency. It seems like this pills have no copper in them, is that correct?

Be careful when taking extra copper most coppers are not what the true copper we need. The copper in most are the copper a plant needs not what we need. Which is coopers copper. With one electron missing. The only product that has this at this very moment is by Mito Syndergy. The only bioavailability copper made for humans not plants! Copper is #29 which means there is 29 electrons and 29 protons it's the only one that comes in a 1,2 state. Meaning it can loose 2 protons or 1 electron. In nature when it rains and the microbes do their magic of breaking down the coper it goes from Cu 0 to Cu2+ 27 electrons and 29 protons this is plant copper. Not human copper. When the plant takes this copper it gives back 1 electron which is 28 electrons and 29 protons. Which is copper 1. This is the human copper we need this copper! When we take copper 0 the plant copper it becomes trapped in our cell walls and becomes toxic within our systems. So with that said be careful with what copper supplements you're taking!

how much zinc is in each individual capsule?

Vitamin Code Raw Zinc provides 30mg of whole food Zinc Per Serving. A Serving is 2 capsules, therefore, each capsule contains 15mg. I hope this helps. In Health, Erin M. Garden of Life

There were 3 or 4 empty capsules in my bottle. Does everyone get jipped a buck or two with defective capsules?

We regret your bottle had empty capsules, but really appreciate your taking the time to make us aware. I'm sure that was frustrating. We at Garden of Life fully guarantee our products, so I'm hoping you were able to reach out to the place of purchase (i.e., Amazon Seller) for a refund or replacement. Take care, Erin M.
