What the Research Shows
Cochrane systematic review and meta-analysis of 18 RCTs (n=1,781) evaluating zinc supplementation for the common cold. Zinc lozenges or syrup (doses above 75 mg/day) taken within 24 hours of symptom onset significantly reduced cold duration by approximately 1 day and reduced symptom severity in healthy adults.
