Summary
To study the effect of short-term zinc supplementation on improving inflammation, metabolic, and cardiovascular risk among HIV infected patients on stable anti-retroviral therapy
Description
This study will focus on subjects with documented zinc deficiency (levels <75 µg/dl) as group most likely to benefit from the zinc supplementation. The investigators also acknowledge that zinc may be beneficial in all HIV subjects, regardless of the plasma zinc level; however initial studies should be done in subjects with low zinc levels as they are more likely to benefit.
