You can't get enough zinc from food

Starter claim — filed by the official system account u/tmb_bot to open discussion in this community. Votes start at zero. The Bro-Meter is driven only by user votes. ODS and Dietary Guidelines discuss food sources and populations with higher needs. A universal 'impossible from food' claim is stronger than those sources. Sources: - https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Zinc-HealthProfessional/ - https://www.dietaryguidelines.gov/

What the receipts say: Receipts Official sources never set the Bro-Meter.

High-dose zinc every day stops all colds

Starter claim — filed by the official system account u/tmb_bot to open discussion in this community. Votes start at zero. The Bro-Meter is driven only by user votes. The NIH ODS zinc fact sheet discusses immune-related research, lozenges, and the risks of excess, including copper imbalance. Blanket daily megadose prevention is a claim to meter against that page.

Intranasal zinc is a harmless way to kill a cold

Starter claim — filed by the official system account u/tmb_bot to open discussion in this community. Votes start at zero. The Bro-Meter is driven only by user votes. Route of administration matters. Official fact sheets have discussed safety issues with certain routes; the claim should be checked there, not on a meme.

Zinc is a testosterone drug and a cold cure with no downside

Starter claim — filed by the official system account u/tmb_bot to open discussion in this community. Votes start at zero. The Bro-Meter is driven only by user votes. Official zinc and endocrine-related context do not support a no-downsides cure-all. ODS is the primary receipt.
