Twinlab Zinc 50mg, 180 caps within category: Zinc
The mineral zinc is one of our great underrated supplements. First, it's dirt-cheap. Second, it has a dozen or so side benefits (wound healing, acne, prostate, hyperactivity, mercury toxicity, etc.) in addition to the immune stuff.
Zinc can be used in low doses (30-60 mg daily) as a general cold and flu preventative, and in higher doses (150-200 mg daily) when you're fighting something off. Just make sure to take it with food, as zinc can make you nauseous on an empty stomach.
One of the good things zinc does is displace heavy metals (mercury, cadmium, lead) from the body. But it will also displace copper. Take too much zinc for too long and we become copper-deficient. That's why you shouldn't use the acute high doses of 150-200 mg a day for more than a week.
