Zorate Tablet
Description
Zorate is a preparation of Zinc Orotate which is a chelated form of zinc found in the human body in trace amounts. Zinc is one of the most essential elements as per body requirement. Orotate (the mineral salt of orotic acid) is a biochemical substance made by all living cells. It is a necessary raw material for making the genetic material: RNA and DNA.
