healthspan Zinc Defence Lozenges | 45 Lozenges | Immune Health Support | Providing 10mg Ionic Zinc (100% NRV) | Cold & Flu | Peppermint Flavoured | Vegan

Lozenges taste fine, taken at the first sign of a runny nose, plus an extra 1000mg lipsomal C, usually means that's all I get. Next day back to normal. Far better than just C.

I've been convinced of the benefit of zinc lozenges when a cold infection threatens for a long time. These ones only contain zinc, with no vitamin C added, but it's the zinc that I think provides the protection for the throat. The price is rather high for 45 lozenges but they come from a respected well known brand. The flavour is minty and pleasant. They dissolve in the mouth over about three minutes and leave a feeling of having coated the mouth surfaces well. I can't claim that they have stopped a cold yet as I haven't caught one.The lozenges come packed in 5 press-out foil & plastic sheets inside a card box. I would like it if Healthspan did more to make their packaging more sustainable.

AmazingFeeling better from I start take soonLesstired,more relax ,

If you're poorly with a cold, flu or a certain Other Illness of Unknown Origin, zinc is so helpful... unlike sugar, which is dreadful. So adding oodles of sugar and sweeteners to something you take when you're poorly is such a strange decision.They taste nice and minty, and the zinc content is good, but if you're ill, the last thing we should be taking is sugar, so I had to knock off two stars.

Not the best taste, but okay. Keeping it in my bag as I tend to forget to take these things.

Don’t usually write reviews but felt I should warn people about these Zinc lozenges. My partner had a cold and not wanting to catch it I bought these to attempt to bolster my immune system and prevent myself from catching it . I took one lozenge and immediately I had the most horrible taste in my mouth and any food I ate tasted salty and bland . Still not back to normal a day and a half later . Told the company but they won’t let me return them as they’ve been opened . These should have a warning on them , very unpleasant experience 😒

I like this zinc product

They are okay for me. Not a fan of powdery taste. Good ingredients though, so still would recommend but there are better alternatives out there.
