The study also found that partcipants who took Zinc for 5 months or more appeared to have a high immunity against catching colds.What were the basic results of the study?*The researchers included 15 trials involving 1,360 people in their analysis. Of these, 13 trials with 966 participants assessed treatment of colds with zinc. Two trials, with 394 participants, assessed prevention. All 15 trials were conducted in high-income countries among healthy people, and the participants ages ranged from one year to 65 years old. Zinc was provided in the form of syrup, lozenges or tablets.Not all studies were useful for all of the analyses, but the researchers grouped the relevant ones together to assess their main outcomes. OverallA pooling of results from six studies showed that the intake of zinc was associated with a significant reduction in the duration of colds Pooling five studies found that the severity of symptoms was also significantly reduced with zinc intake People taking zinc were less likely to have cold symptoms beyond seven days of treatment when the five relevant studies were pooled. Taking zinc for at least five months reduced the incidence of colds in the two studies that measured this outcome. Two studies combined showed that school absence and antibiotic prescriptions were lower in people taking zinc for at least five months.*Source www.NHS.ukWhy choose Bioconcepts vitamins & supplementsBioconcepts is a brand you can trust.
