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 these processes. However, a 50 mg dose exceeds the recommended upper limit for daily intake. This high concentration may lead to safety concerns, including potential copper deficiency or gastrointestinal distress.
