I once worked the graveyard shift at a casino. Durring my employment there, be it the smoke, the late hours, or the chill of the night, I rutinely caught colds. The Vietamese women I worked with would frequently offer me Zinc tablets. Apparetnly, there was a 1984 study which indicated Zinc worked to minimize colds, but I'm unsure if the results have scientifically been replicated. Anecdotatally, it tastes pretty bad and any results I experienced were minimal at best. Thank you for your contributions to this week's discussion!
