About The Blend
Oysters are a divine living expression of the ocean’s mineral abundance - they are nature’s treasures from the deep. And guava leaf, a revered botanical for centuries, has long been cherished for its antioxidants, particularly zinc. With this unique fusion of land and sea, Wild Zinc draws upon ancient nourishment to offer modern resilience.
When combined, oyster and guava leaf provide a good source of natural zinc that speaks to the body’s innate wisdom. These delicate mollusks and ancient tropical leaves contain a balanced blend of vitamins and minerals, creating a full package of nutritional cofactors that help your body absorb and metabolise zinc naturally. These compounds together create a synergistic effect that provides a unique, bioavailable source of natural zinc that your body effortlessly knows how to receive and use.
However, Wild Zinc is so much more than just zinc itself. The zinc was always the end goal, but this product is truly the sum of its counterparts. This unique pairing isn’t just about their isolated nutrients; it’s about returning to the nourishment our ancestors thrived on, reconnecting with the elements that build resilience from the inside out.
Every capsule is a fusion of nature’s most powerful elements, and an invitation to experience true vitality - pure, bioavailable, and ancestrally aligned.

How do the subscriptions work?
- Your order will be sent out every 4 or 6 weeks, you choose! If you find you are taking a slower amount of time to devour it, or gobbling it up faster than expected, you can move your shipment date forward or backward.
- By beginning your subscription, it is a commitment to the initial 3 shipments. This will continue onwards every 4 or 6 weeks unless you choose to opt out at any time after the 3 shipments (unless the pouch has already been shipped).
- At each chosen time frame, the money will be deducted from your account, and your shipment will be sent automatically.
Why subscribe?
- Subscriber-only prices and access to exclusive deals
- Free shipping Australia wide!
- Flexible shipment timing with deliveries based around your needs and schedule, and adjustable at any time

FAQs
Frequently asked questions about Wild Zinc
In oysters, the form of zinc found is primarily “organic zinc” bound to proteins and amino acids, especially as part of metallothionein - small, cysteine-rich proteins that tightly bind metal ions such as zinc. The zinc is typically still in this naturally chelated form (zinc organically bound to peptides or amino acids), not isolated or synthetically bound like supplements containing zinc sulfate, zinc gluconate, zinc citrate, etc. This natural form facilitates zinc storage and detoxification within oyster tissues, contributing to oysters being one of the richest natural sources of natural, bioavailable zinc. It is how zinc is found in nature bound to organic molecules (like amino acids), which enhance bioavailability, meaning it’s easily absorbed by the human body. This may be one reason people find oyster-derived zinc to be gentle but mighty, even at lower amounts.
In guava leaves, the zinc present is referred to as “plant-derived ionic” or also “organically bound” form, naturally chelated to amino acids (like histidine or cysteine), organic acids (like citric or malic), but particularly plant polyphenols such as flavonoids. The presence of naturally occurring antioxidant co-factors help transport and store zinc within the plant and enhance the potential of the zinc. The synergy of zinc with these phytonutrients is part of what makes guava leaf a valued botanical in traditional and modern herbal medicine. In summary, while both oysters and guava leaves contain zinc, the mineral is naturally bound to different compounds to support zinc storage within each source: predominately metallothioneins in oysters and organic molecules such as polyphenols in guava leaves.
We use oysters that are fished sustainably off the west coast of Ireland, where they use a combination of traditional fishing techniques, small scale artisan fishers, one man per boat, and hand picking/harvesting in the summer months. These oysters occur wild in these waters. You may be thinking of the tiny oysters we get at a cocktail bar… But these oysters are HUGE! Ireland has a unique geology, sitting on one of the largest underground zinc reserves in the world. As such, these coastal waters are rich in zinc which the oysters can metabolise into organic zinc with associated nutritional co-factors, making these oysters very nutritious.
We quite literally searched the globe for the best quality product that we could find, from a supplier that we trust. One that uses no fillers, and has regular nutritional and contaminant testing for every batch that they produce (and we also test every batch upon arrival too). Our oyster powder comes from the pristine waters of the Irish coast, where oysters are wild and extra large. The other perk of Wild Zinc is it not only contains oyster, it contains guava leaf. The guava leaf extract we use contains more zinc than oyster, but we know that excess of one nutrient without the beautiful nutritional cofactors present to support its metabolism can then go on to deplete other nutrients. This is why we have paired it with the oyster, because oyster is not only a source of zinc itself but also contains the nutritional cofactors surrounding zinc in nature, to support proper zinc absorption and metabolism making these two ingredients a dream duo from both land and sea.

*Please note that Wild Zinc contains oyster meat powder (mollusc), which are considered a top food allergen. We suggest ensuring your child has already been exposed to oysters/molluscs prior to introducing Wild Zinc.
Wild Zinc is a pure, food-based zinc and is therefore suitable for all ages and life stages. However, the amount depends on age.
Below are the recommended intakes for adolescents that you can use to find a suitable serving for your child. These nutrient reference values can be found on https://www.eatforhealth.gov.au/
Please also note, these are suitable servings per age, not personalised prescriptions. Each person may vary based on their health circumstances and nutritional needs. It is always best to check with your trusted health professional.
Also please bear in mind that a Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) means the bare minimum to consume via diet in order to function. The Upper Limit (UL) however, is the maximum amount recommended to consume before toxicity occurs, particularly from supplementation. So exceeding the RDI is suitable and in many cases recommended, but always being mindful to not consistently exceed the Upper Limit with supplementation.
