Zinc is a mineral essential for formation of superoxide dismutase, one of the body’s most important free radical scavengers and one that cannot be directly supplemented. Zinc also promotes wound healing, immune function, taste sensitivity, protein synthesis, insulin production, and reproduction including organ development and sperm motility.

Caution:

Supplemental zinc can inhibit the absorption and availability of copper. If more than 50 mg of supplemental zinc is taken daily, 2 mg of supplemental copper should also be taken to prevent deficiency.

Chronic ingestion of more than 100 mg of zinc daily may be toxic.

By orally dissolving zinc lozenges, the severity and duration of the common cold can be alleviated. These zinc lozenges are easily used for this purpose because they have a pleasant taste and dissolve well in the mouth.

1 lozenge contains:

Zinc (elemental) 24 mg

Vitamin C 100 mg

Other ingredients: Fructose, mannitol (a carbohydrate which may be therapeutic), orange juice crystals, flavoring

Dosage and use

1-2 lozenges daily are suggested for dietary supplementation of zinc.

1 to 2 lozenges every 2 hours should be taken at the first sign of a cold until symptoms are gone.
