Nutritional values and zinc content

July 6, 2021

In support of a healthy lifestyle, we provide you with information on a selection of foods and their zinc content, calories and bread units for diabetics.

Please note that the body can absorb a maximum of 50% of the zinc content of the food.

Zinc levels in agricultural products vary as they depend on the nature of the soil and the plants absorb and store different amounts at different times of the year.

We recommend that you regularly perform a Zinc Deficiency Test to identify possible risks at an early stage.

Oysters have the highest zinc content of 85 milligrams. 

Among plant foods, whole grains usually contain more zinc than industrial products, which are released from the surface layers. They also reduce the risk of developing diabetes.

Unizink® 50 supplies the body with the daily dose of Zinc in the form of a zinc aspartate compound and stomach-friendly tablets.
