The refining of cereals removes up to 90% of the zinc content available in these foods.
This fact, along with the trend to eat less animal protein, is possibly one of the reasons why one in three British adults eats less than the Reference Nutrient Intake (RNI) for this mineral.
Zinc is an integral part of insulin, the hormone used in the treatment of diabetes, and is essential in the synthesis of all proteins in the body.
Any extraordinary physical or mental effort of the organism can increase the need for zinc, or cause extra zinc losses, while foods rich in phytates and fiber inhibit the absorption of zinc present in food.
One fifth of the zinc present in the body is found in the skin.
Zinc 25mg should be used as a short-term supplement to quickly correct deficiencies.
For maintenance it is recommended to use 15 mg Zinc.
