Zinc against colds
Zinc is an essential trace element as it determines growth, development and maintenance of immune function. Supplementation with zinc prevents colds and can also be used for therapeutic purposes. In this case, it should be started at the latest 24 hours after the onset of the first cold symptoms.
Zinc - like many other vitamins and minerals - is contained in IMMUNOGUARD from SPONSER and thus strengthens the antiviral immunity.
