What the Evidence Says

AI-generated · Qwen 3.6 · grounded in 1 source · methodology

Zinc is essential for immune function and cellular metabolism, with strong evidence supporting its role in supporting the body's defense systems. However, a 50 mg dose exceeds the recommended daily allowance, which may lead to copper deficiency or gastrointestinal distress over time. This high dosage contributes to a lower safety score.
