Mens zinc requirments ?
Today's concerns are about Zinc requirments for men. I used the nutrient calculator and Im only getting around 5-6mgs at best. If a man is sexually active and an athlete of sort, would I need more zinc? If so what can I do besides eating more yolks?
Zinc uptake ratios depend very much on how much zinc is in your food; the more you eat, the more your body lowers the uptake rate. The less you eat, the more that rate is increased.
In other words: your body doesnt want that much zinc, and if it needs more, it will very effecitvely increase the uptake rate.
5 mg is not too little.

:
Brazil nuts and egg yolk contain the most zinc. (Oysters contain far too much zinc) Walnuts, hazelnuts, currants, figs, salmon, coconut and granadilla also contain a lot of zinc.
