I absolutely hate the zinc related nausea but it really does work! I hung out with a sick friend all weekend and felt a little under the weather on Sunday. Took 75mg of zinc Sunday and Monday (fought through the nausea side effects) ans feel totally fine. 2nd time in the last month that I’ve been directly in the line of fire and survived https://www.mayoclinic.or..

Can zinc zap a cold?

Everyone's heard of taking zinc for colds. But does it really work?

OOOh copper I will try that!
@Todd Smith , you don’t really need this. To be precise about what @Jerome Cody is saying -- copper does NOT help your immune system. It's just that high doses of zinc taken for long periods can unseat copper in the body. But this is not an issue if you are taking zinc just when you feel like getting sick. Low dose zinc even daily is fine. Only an issue if you are taking say >50mg/day for weeks. You get plenty copper from food. Copper deficiency is not really a common thing.

How does this compare to traditional Botox? Is it FDA approved?
