Our findings demonstrate that zinc absorption can be measured in humans from single foods containing a physiological dose of zinc by using the whole-gut lavage absorption technique and that zinc bioavailability from beef is about fourfold greater than from a high-fiber breakfast cereal.
This experience with the use of zinc in therapeutic doses over relatively long periods is reassuring.
At the same time, it is necessary to investigate and research further these toxicities of zinc with long-term administration of low dosage.
Zinc absorption can be predicted from dietary zinc and phytate after allowing for dietary equilibration.
These results show that aging does not lead to nutritionally relevant changes in zinc absorption and in the effect of dietary inhibitors on zinc absorption.
The net efflux of zinc from circulation following meals may reflect hepatic zinc uptake in association with an increase in postprandial liver metabolism.
The results of the present experiment indicate that the zinc tolerance test, that is, an unequivocal rise in serum zinc following per oral administration of this metal, provides the best indication of zinc status.
