Zinc is a critical nutrient for the immune system. The normal, healthy development of immune cells, particularly T-lymphocytes depends upon adequate zinc status. Zinc deficiency has been shown to reduce the physical size of the thymus gland; it is here where T cells mature to become fully functional mature T-lymphocytes. These cells are critical for a healthy immune response. Provided as a lozenge, zinc gluconate has been shown to reduce the severity and duration of the common cold, as well as reduce antibiotic use in school-age children with a cold.\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e120 lozenges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides 15 mg of zinc citrate and gluconate per lozenge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps support normal, healthy immune function.\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides antioxidant support which is essential to immune function.\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStudies show a reduction in the severity and duration of the common cold.\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStudies also show that prophylactic (preventive) use may reduce the number of colds per year, as well as reduce antibiotic usage.\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlippery elm is a mucilaginous herb that provides soothing support for the mucus lining of the throat and esophagus, both of which may become irritated during a cold\/infection.\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContains slippery elm and propolis to soothe the throat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePleasant taste from natural lemon flavor and sorbitol.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e†\u003cem\u003eThese statements have not been evaluated by The Food and Drug Administration.
