For years now I have lived by the philosophy that if you even think you might be getting sick to zinc up! I normally take lozenges but the problem is that after the second one I can no longer taste anything and they take a long time to dissolve. Don't get me wrong, I still take them, they still work wonders to shorten a cold and moderate the symptoms so they are much milder. and therefore are worth the taste lost, but I'm glad to have other options too. This is a powerful zinc spray that works quickly and tastes pretty good too! My mouth still has that zinc aftertaste so I know that it is potent stuff, and it has a little bit of a bite, but it's worth it for good health. Keep it on hand always and take it regularly!

With the craziness of the world, I thought building up my immune system would be a good idea. I have an autoimmune disease, so I definitely want to take precautions. As a teacher, I feel like I work in a giant petri dish on a normal year anyway, but this year its like everything is trying to kill you. I started this product a little over a week ago. I spray 5 squirts into my mouth before bed. It is sour, but it doesn't taste bad. I haven't got sick yet! I will continue this product as a precaution, and I am hopeful it will help.

A fast convenient way to get your zinc. The flavor isn't the best, and it definitely has a little after taste, but it's still better than getting sick.

Great to have to help fight off colds, especially with Covid! Great for our immune system!

AT least it tastes good, just not enough Zinc or C in a serving. I wanted more for the Zinc, so i will just double up on the sprays, so it last about a month for me.

So simple -- just a few spritzes in the mouth followed with some water (or other fluid) afterwards. This product directs using a max of 5 sprays each use and taken up to five times a day (I am using less -- we only need trace amounts of zinc!) The zinc gluconate in this product is soluble, easier on the stomach and in a form our bodies can better absorb. Not all zinc supplements are made equal. This product contains 5mg of zinc gluconate (when taken as directed). This product makes taking zinc easy-peasy -- no capsules to swallow (or tablets to chew). This tastes fairly good and leaves no aftertaste.<br /><br />I researched zinc further and discovered (paraphrased -- *not* copy & pasted) that our bodies do not produce zinc so it must be received from our diet. Zinc is needed for our immune system, our vision and even protein synthesis. Zinc assists also with our sense of taste and smell. Zinc is an essential mineral required for over 100 chemical reactions in our bodies. A lack of Zinc can cause poor immunity, decreased bone mass, inhibited growth, low blood pressure, loss of appetite, pale skin, and fatigue. Some studies even indicate that a lack of zinc can lead to cardiovascular diseases, depression, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease. (I used several sources for this information).<br /><br />Cons: none unless you take too much which can cause gastrointestinal distress. Take as directed!
