"Take zinc at the earliest signs of infection - clinical research evidence shows it's effective at reducing the duration of the cold. Hope you feel better soon op  "
Thanks for the advice, makes me feel a little galvanised. |

I'll wipe your nose for you if you rub my chest and back as I have pleurisy. |

There's a link to NHS comment on one of the Zinc meta-analysis studies, reported in the national media, here :
http://www.nhs.uk/news/2012/05may/Pages/Zinc-shortens-common-cold.aspx
(Mods, I believe that the NHS would count as a nationally recognised body issuing news).
Whilst our diets, if balanced, should include sufficient Zinc, I'd think it prudent to take no more than 25Mg of Zinc as a supplement, as soon as your cold symptoms start.
Zinc may also be able to lessen the severity of the cold, as well as shorten it: but I understand that no research shows this yet.
Still continue to take any symptom relief stuff that you favour - though beware of different products each containing some of the same ingredients, pushing you above the safe daily dose limit, such as with paracetamol. |
