“…Due to inadequate dietary data on the phytate content of foods in Serbian databases, we were not able to calculate phyate:Zn molar ratios. However, we employed the method by Jati et al (42) to determine the bioavailability ( Table 7) and confirmed that there is a high bioavailability of both minerals in participants' diets.…”

“…However, in an omnivorous population, the impact of phytate is likely to be less significant than expected in vegetarians and those whose diets are mainly based on plant foods. Similarly, according to recently developed calculator for inadequate micronutrient intake, Zn bioavailability from the diets consumed by our study population belong to the group of 'high Zn bioavailability', where 50% of total energy intake is accounted for from rice, other grains, other starchy staples, and pulses and nuts (38% in our population) and >5% (15% in our study population) of total energy intake is accounted for by protein from fish, eggs, dairy and meat [57].…”

“…As majority of other databases, our database did not contain data on the amount of phytates in selected foods, so the exact phytate: Zn molar ratio of consumed foods was not obtained. However, when method by Jati et al [77] was employed, Zn bioavailability from the diets consumed by our participants fitted into the group of 'high bioavailability' where ≤ 50% of total energy intake is accounted for from rice, other grains, other starchy staples, and pulses and nuts (35% in this group) and >5% (7.5% in our study sample) of total energy intake is accounted for by protein from fish, eggs, dairy, and meat. The association between anthropometric indicators and status of certain trace elements in a dyslipidemic population has been investigated in the past [78,79].…”

Is There a Link between Zinc Intake and Status with Plasma Fatty Acid Profile and Desaturase Activities in Dyslipidemic Subjects?

The prevalence of obesity and dyslipidemia has increased worldwide. The role of trace elements in the pathogenesis of these conditions is not well understood. This study examines the relationship between dietary zinc (Zn) intake and plasma concentrations of Zn, copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) with lipid profile indicators, fatty acid composition in plasma phospholipids and desaturase enzyme activities in a dyslipidemic population. The role of the newly proposed biomarker of Zn status, the linoleic:dihomo-gama-linolenic acid (LA:DGLA) ratio, in predicting Zn status of dyslipidemic subjects has been explored. The study included 27 dyslipidemic adults, 39-72 years old. Trace elements were determined using atomic absorption spectrometry and fatty acid composition by a liquid gas chromatography. Desaturase activities were calculated from product-precursor fatty acid ratios. Dietary data were obtained using 24 h recall questionnaires. Insufficient dietary intake of Zn, low plasma Zn concentrations and an altered Cu:Zn ratio is related to modified fatty acid profile in subjects with dyslipidemia. Plasma Zn status was associated with obesity. There was no correlation between dietary Zn intake and plasma Zn status. The LA:DGLA ratio was inversely linked to dietary Zn intake. Cu, in addition to Zn, may directly or indirectly, affect the activity of desaturase enzymes. region of Europe (54% for both sexes). Successful treatment of dyslipidemia significantly reduces morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular diseases [7]. Basically 10% reduction in serum lipid levels has been reported to result in a 50% reduction in heart disease within 5 years [1].Trace elements have crucial roles in metabolism, growth, immunological and neurological functions [8][9][10]. Zinc (Zn) is required for an adequate activity of more than 300 enzymes involved in protein synthesis, fatty acid metabolism, reproduction and oxidative clearance [11]. Iron (Fe) is needed for proper oxygen transport, while copper (Cu) is important for the oxido-reduction and detoxification and is involved in growth, development of cellular elements of arterial walls, lipoprotein metabolism and immune function [9,12,13]. The concentrations of serum/plasma minerals Zn, Cu and Fe are associated with the development of chronic diseases [10,14,15]. Deficiency in microelements leads to an increase in fat deposition and obesity [16]. Hypoferremia is often seen in people suffering from hypertension and plasma Zn concentrations have been directly correlated with total cholesterol and LDL-C levels [15,17]. Zn, Cu and Fe plasma levels are related to the extent of myocardial damage [18]. Epidemiological studies show a direct correlation between low plasma Zn and Fe concentrations and increased risk of cardiovascular diseases [19]. Elevated plasma levels of Cu were reported in patients with coronary artery disease [20]. Although deficiencies of trace elements may alter metabolism of lipids and lipoproteins, the mechanism of their action is not yet completely understood. The fatty acid (FA)...
