The most-traded currency, by far, is the U.S. dollar, with consistently greater than 85% of the average daily turnover in foreign exchange trading. The distant second place currency is the Eurozone’s euro, with around a 37% share. Rounding out the top currencies are the Japanese yen with approximately 16%, and the British pound with 15%. AUD/USD and USD/CAD are next in line in terms of trading activity, but are not generally considered among the majors. It is usually recommended for beginning traders to concentrate initially just on the major currencies. [2009] - James Chen

Zinc lozenges appear to shorten colds by about 3 days, with significant reduction in nasal discharge (by 34%), nasal congestion (by 37%), hoarseness (by 43%), and cough (by 46%). The best way to take zinc for the common cold is lozenges containing around 10-15 mg of zinc taken every 2 waking hours for a few days, starting immediately upon symptom onset as either zinc acetate or zinc gluconate without binders such as citric acid, tartaric acid, glycine, sorbitol, or mannitol. Efficacy against more serious infections such as pneumonia may only be present among those with preexisting zinc deficiency. [2023] - Michael Greger
