Zinc
Just wanted to share my experience over the past year with anyone that’s interested.
I started taking a generic OTC zinc supplement for general health January of 2018. I take other supplements as well to combat different things but this was the first year I supplemented with Zinc.
I was told that it would regulate estrogen (lower it rather than regulate I suppose) and also prevent many types of common sicknesses like the common cold.
Now I typically get sick around thanksgiving every year...like clockwork. This year I didn’t get the least bit sick with anything.
I take 25-50mg a day with food. If I take it on an empty stomach I tend to get nauseous.
My experience anyway.

Zinc prevents the virus from multiplying. That's why you're supposed to take it as soon as you feel the onset of a sickness. I believe the typical dose, for sickness, is 50-75mg/day.
I'd be more interested in zinc's effect on beta cells.

Zinc
That’s interesting Zomb. I’ve never looked into the tech specs of it though. Always cool hearing from others that know more than I do.
Also read up that garlic shortens the common cold up to like 75%...side note but I find this stuff interesting.
Ooorah devil btw

Zinc
I wanted to update my research on this Subject
ED? Well general health anyway...
1. Zinc is a key mineral that cells use to metabolize nutrients. Immune function, DNA and protein production, and cell division are all related to zinc levels in the body.
2. Zinc enables the male body to produce testosterone. Because of this, levels of zinc “may affect” erectile dysfunction.
Good sources of Zinc:
Oysters 5.3 mg per medium oyster
Crab 6.5 mg per 3oz king
Lobster 3.4 mg per 3oz
Roasted, skinless chicken breast .9mg per 3oz
Large Egg .6mg
Mushrooms or Kale both 0.4 mg per 1 cup
Hummus 1.1 mg per .75 cup
Steel Cut Oats .9mg per .5 cup
Fortified Cereal In general, one serving provides about 3.8 mg depending on brand and type.

Zinc is generally a fantastic supplement for men and bodybuilders. I would recommend a good ZMA product pre bed. Amazing for improving the quality of your sleep, recovery, skin, blood pressure, immune system etc.
