Whole grains, a widely used processing method in the UK, cause more than 90% of the zinc levels in these foods to be reduced. This, combined with the new dietary pattern that requires less animal protein intake, is likely to be one of the reasons why 1 in 3 adults in the UK receive less zinc than recommended.
Zinc is an integral part of insulin, the hormone used to treat diabetes, and is necessary for all protein synthesis in the body. In cases of an increase in the body's physical or mental demands, as well as in increased consumption of vegetable fibers, there may be a greater one need for zinc or greater loss of zinc from the body, taking into account the fact that high-fiber foods prevent the absorption of zinc by the body.
One-fifth of the zinc stored in the body is found in the skin. Zinc also helps regenerate tissues and participates in some of the enzymatic reactions that are necessary for the normal functioning of the sebaceous glands of the skin.
It directly affects many organic systems such as the nervous, immune and reproductive systems. It also maintains the proper functioning of the senses such as taste and smell.
