Thanks so much for this post. I have wondered also whether it was primarily a marketing angle or whether zinc offered true relief. There is a very popular line of zinc lozenges on the market that I've tried several times. Sometimes I thought it might have made a difference and other times I was pretty sure it didn't. (It's the old saying: My cold lasted 7 days with the lozenges, a week without them, LOL.) So I was interested to read the science behind it. Thank you.
