What I take — and why.
From personal conviction. Honest recommendations — products I personally stand behind.

The Core: Omega-3
What I put at the very start for myself — and my own first step. EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart. DHA contributes to the maintenance of normal brain function and normal vision. A simple blood test can show how well you're supplied. Stay consistent for at least 4 months: your red blood cells take about 120 days to fully renew.

Why is Omega-3 the foundation for everything? EPA and DHA are directly incorporated into your cell membranes, making them more permeable — so nutrients can enter the cell more easily and waste products can be transported out more efficiently.

With a small finger prick, a specialised contract lab (Vitas, Norway — commissioned by Zinzino for the analysis) measures 11 fatty acids in your blood — your personal baseline, so you can make informed decisions. After 4 months, you can test again and compare. The test is included in the kit: approx. 43 EUR instead of 189 EUR when purchased separately.
My second favorite product
A daily composition with vitamin C, iodine, magnesium and a B-vitamin complex from buckwheat-sprout extract. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, iodine contributes to normal thyroid function, magnesium contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. This product additionally contains saffron extract (affron®) as a further ingredient (no EU health claim is currently authorised for saffron).
The Complete Health Protocol
Omega-3 + fiber + vitamins & minerals — the foundation I wish I'd had from the start. Three products that complement each other perfectly: EPA and DHA contribute to the normal function of the heart (with 250 mg EPA+DHA/day). Plus a fiber-rich supplement from 8 natural sources. Vitamin C and zinc contribute to the normal function of the immune system. Also available as a bundle.
Individual Add-Ons
The Health Protocol is the foundation — and for many, it's completely sufficient. If you want to do more for yourself beyond that, here are individual add-ons for different needs.
Your knowledge, your decision.
I didn't just want to take supplements — I wanted to know where I stand. That was always important to me personally: not just trust, but understand. A small finger prick, sample to the lab, results online. Analysis performed by VITAS Analytical Services in Norway (specialised contract lab commissioned by Zinzino; according to VITAS's own information they operate to GMP standards — current status verifiable at vitasas.com, as of May 2026).
More tests: Zinzino also offers a GutHealth Test (gut health via blood test — an innovation, not a stool test) and an HbA1c Test (long-term blood sugar). Zinzino does not declare either test as a CE/IVDR-classified medical device — they are lifestyle/wellness tests and work on the same dried-blood principle as the BalanceTest. They do not replace a medical diagnosis. If you're interested, feel free to ask me or check the shop directly.
Note: The tests are certified in-vitro diagnostics and provide measurements of specific biomarkers. They do not replace a medical diagnosis. If you have abnormal values, please consult your doctor.
