Is BulkSupplements zinc NSF certified?
Our picks, by labeled strength, with a link to buy them: see where to buy. A strength with nothing certified at it has no pick, and is not listed there.
Partly: 1 of the 4 we track, not all of them. NSF lists a specific package against each certificate, and a certificate is what NSF actually stands behind, so a package the listing does not name is treated as unconfirmed rather than certified. Every row below was read against NSF's own listing, and the listing ID is shown.
BulkSupplements sells zinc as several salts, and NSF lists each product separately, so one salt can be named by a certificate while the others from the same catalog are not.

What the listings say
BulkSupplements holds 1 Certified for Sport listing covering the products in this table (1822457). NSF records some brands under more than one spelling, so a search on the brand name alone can miss a listing; ours are found from a full read of the directory, then opened one by one.
3 products here have no NSF listing at all. That is an absence in a database, not a failed test: most supplements have never been independently tested, and NSF Certified for Sport is one program among several.

Where to buy: the pick for each type
The pick is the cheapest certified product, at the exact package sold where the certifier names packages, with no adverse finding on record, a price its retailer let us read recently, and no more than a year’s supply at the label’s serving; per delivered dose where the retailer publishes a delivery rate. Where none does, it is the cheapest such product before delivery, and it says how far the order is from free delivery. It is the same pick the category page shows.
How these lines are chosen
Among 1 product and 1 retailer listing we track; Amazon and Walmart are not included. A month is thirty doses of the size in the heading, priced the same way as the per-dose figure beside it. “Delivery known” ranks only products whose retailer publishes a delivery rate; a cheaper product with an unpublished rate is on its own line, or in the full list below. No product here publishes a delivery rate below its free-delivery threshold, so the pick is priced before delivery.

What this rests on: prices we last recorded at the retailer named on each product page, which go stale, and each page says when it was checked; the products we track, not every product sold, and Amazon and Walmart are not among the stores; listings and labels read at the source, each linked from the page.
