The RDI for zinc is 11-15mg (for male adults). For example, 10 mg of zinc gluconate contains 1,43 elemental zinc. Therefore, one should ingest 77 mg of zinc gluconate daily in order to meet their daily requirements (provided that one does not obtain zinc from other food sources).

What is the Best zinc lozenges?
This is a topic that I've found very interesting over the past few years. I used to be a very big skeptic over the use of supplements such as Echinacea, Vitamin C and Zinc. However, I recently discovered that I was completely wrong. Zinc is your best bet, but you have to be careful. Most Zinc lozenges don't do anything to help you. They may taste great, like candy even, but candy never helped us with our colds. Rather, be sure the Zinc you're ingesting in a lozenge comes in the form of Zinc Acetate, not Zinc Gluconate, as most commercial lozenges do. Lozenges that contain a few milligrams of Zinc, not "as Zinc Glucomate" will also do you well. I'm my research, the cheaper the Zinc lozenge, the more likely it is to contain Zinc Gluconate. Go for the mid-range prices and read the label. I've found what I use to be very effective and I get mine at Walgreens. It is their brand of Zinc Lozenges that I find work for me.
