Zinc & Throat Guard
The stuffy nose‚ sore throat‚ fatigue‚ and sinus headaches from a cold can make you feel miserable. When you have a cold‚ you probably just want to stay in bed and sleep all day. Unfortunately‚ this isn't always an option. Work‚ school‚ and other life responsibilities don't always afford you the time to rest.
Unfortunately‚ there’s no cure for the common cold. You can take over-the-counter medicines to temporarily hide your symptoms and get you through the day‚ but these medicines may cause drowsiness. Another option is to take a natural remedy that contains zinc. Zinc is a mineral that may help relieve some of your cold symptoms‚ especially your sore throat.
Zinc & Throat Guard Lozenges by Perque are a natural remedy that contains zinc and other ingredients that may help you feel better and get better faster. Some of the ingredients in this remedy include:
- Zinc‚ which may shorten the length of time you're sick with a cold
- Vitamin C‚ which may help relieve cold symptoms
- Slippery Elm‚ which may coat your throat to relieve sore throat pain while working to relieve sinus pressure (thereby possibly relieving sinus headaches)
- Echinacea‚ which may reduce the duration of your sore throat and other cold symptoms
To use Perque’s Zinc & Throat Guard‚ dissolve one lozenge in your mouth whenever you feel cold symptoms coming on‚ or use as directed by your doctor. Each container provides 50 lozenges.
For over two decades‚ Perque has been formulating and manufacturing safe‚ effective‚ and unique dietary supplements. Perque products are often included in prestigious clinical studies‚ and have been shown to have more bioavailability than competing products. Founder Dr. Russell M. Jaffe’s goal has always been to integrate conventional medicine with a prevention-first mentality.

GREAT product! It really does thicken my hair, adds shine and helps it to grow, but requires taking three pills a day for over a month to see results!

I lost some hearing in my right ear which causes vertigo. Well mind vertigo alleviates the dizziness and quiets the upset stomach.
I have taken ArthroMax this year for joint comfort and mobility. It has definitely helped with flexibility and ease of motion for my hip joint. I recommend this product for people who need a little extra help for mild osteoarthritis.
This is a great value. It is processed well and does not have anything added unnecessarily. I have been using this for a while now and it has helped with my digestive issues.
Does what it is supposed to.
I have tried so many supplements and I have not found that they helped in any way. I have severe panic attacks. Along with all the other meds that I take this one really helps to calm my system.
