Review: Best supplement based on ingredients - I have early stages of a cold so got these after doing some research. These are the only kind of losenges that can work cos they contain Zinc Acetate & no “zinc blocker” ingredients. I saw people complain about the flavour in the reviews but honestly they’re fine. It’s like an alkaline peppermint taste, just like antacid tablets. Zinc tastes weird so there’s only so much you can mask the flavour without loads of additives that might block the efficacy of the Zinc. I was ideally looking for a sugar free supplement but these don’t have a huge amount of sugar, so I can cope for a few days. I haven’t found any other sugar free Zinc Acetate losenges anywhere, maybe it’s not possible. If you can make them sugar free, please do! The packaging was fancy and mostly recyclable. Overall I will definitely buy them again. Edit: I still got the cold but it helped to delay it. Would use again. Don’t take on empty stomach Review: Not worth the expense - I started taking these on day one of a cold/virus - it’s difficult to predict when one is going to get one ! Anyway I thought they had a strange chalky minty like taste and not great when you are feeling ill. I only took a few but they left me feeling sick. Thereafter I took just a couple a day. I do think they have had a positive effect regarding how I feel and have reduced the awful symptoms of a cold/virus slightly. ## Features - ✔ ALL BLACKS OFFICIAL PARTNER - The All Blacks have chosen Healthspan Elite as their first ever supplement partner. - ✔ 34MG OF ZINC - Each peppermint zinc lozenge provides 34mg of zinc acetate which delivers 10mg of active ionic zinc, which is the level most widely studied. - ✔ COLD & FLU - More training days are missed due to illness than any other cause.

I really like the nice minty taste too, not sure what the other reviews are referencing when they talk about a bad taste?! ## Frequently Bought Together - Healthspan Elite Zinc Defence Lozenges 34mg (45 Lozenges) | Providing 34mg Zinc Acetate | Immune Support | Cold & Flu | All Blacks Official Partner | Peppermint | Informed Sport Accredited | Vegan - Vicks Nasal Spray For Blocked Nose, First Defence, Relief Of Cough Cold And Flu Like Symptoms, Nose Spray Helps To Inactivate & Remove Cold Viruses, Blocked Nose Relief, Cold Virus Blocker, 15 ml - Healthspan ImmunoVit Zinc Defence Lozenges (45 Lozenges) | All Year-Round Immunity Support | Cold & Flu | Providing 10mg Ionic Zinc (100% NRV) | Peppermint Flavoured | Vegan --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/693105947-zinc-defence-lozenges-for-immune-support-all-blacks-official-partner](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/693105947-zinc-defence-lozenges-for-immune-support-all-blacks-official-partner) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
