ZINC
monograph
Immune support
Zinc is important for neutrophil, natural killer cell, and T-lymphocyte function. Even mild zinc deficiency might adversely affect T-cell functions. Interestingly, high-dose zinc supplementation, 20 times the RDA, can have a negative effect similar to deficiency on immune function.

Research suggests that zinc helps control infections by gently tapping the brakes on the immune response in a way that prevents out-of-control inflammation that can be damaging and even deadly.
Benefits
In human research, zinc decreased levels of the suppressor T cells and increased the ratio of helper to suppressor cells. Zinc, alone or with other micronutrients, has been shown to affect numbers of other CD(+) cells and other lymphocytes, and both increase an decrease levels of cytokines.
