Nature's Bounty Vitamin C + Zinc

Breakdown

4 ingredients to avoid

Nature's Bounty Vitamin C + Zinc scores 24/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Nature's Bounty Vitamin C + Zinc lists 13 ingredients, starting with Ascorbic Acid, Zinc Oxide, Zinc Gluconate, Dextrose and Vegetable Cellulose. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 24/100 Nature's Bounty Vitamin C + Zinc scores worse than most vitamins we have scored. A higher-scoring option in vitamins is Nature Made Vitamin D3 1000 IU Tablets at 97/100.
