“…Stunting follows with decreases of food intake in long-term, thus lead to both macro and micro nutrients deficiency [14]. Zinc is one of the micronutrients that its deficiency can decrease tasting abilities thus the appetite, that leading to low intake as well [10,15]. Giving of zinc with 10 mg/day for one month is insufficient to increase the intake in stunting children.…”

One form of nutritional services for individuals is nutritional supplementation. Zinc supplementation is recommended to overcome growth problems in children. Giving of high-doses vitamin A should also be followed by zinc supplementation because both of them have relation in the absorption process. Vitamin A deficiency can decreases zinc-binding proteins and can lead to impaired absorption of zinc. Zinc plays a role in metabolism and transport of vitamin A as well as in the synthesis of protein transport retinol (PTR), such as hepatic cell PTR (cPTR) which is an intracellular protein transport retinol in the liver cells and holo PTR that brings retinol from the liver into the blood stream and other tissues. Purpose of this study was to determine the effect of zinc supplementation in stunting children after giving of high-dosage vitamin A.This study used pre-and post-control study design. The study was conducted for a month, with supplementation 10 mg/day of zinc syrup in stunting children aged 2 to 4 years, after giving of high-dosage vitamin A. Sample size was 45 children that was divided into 3 groups: zinc group, vitamin A group and zinc + vitamin A group. Indicators under measurements were nutritional intake, biochemical status and anthropometric.Zinc supplementation followed by high-dosage vitamin A in stunting children was effective to improve biochemical status while the same treatment was not effective to improve nutritional intake and anthropometry.

For citation purposes: EFSA Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies (NDA); Scientific Opinion on substantiation of health claims related to pantothenic acid and energy-yielding metabolism (ID 56, 59, 60, 64, 171, 172, 208) The food constituent that is the subject of the health claims is pantothenic acid, which is a well recognised nutrient and is measurable in foods by established methods. The Panel considers that pantothenic acid is sufficiently characterised.The Panel concludes that a cause and effect relationship has been established between the dietary intake of pantothenic acid and normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal mental performance and normal synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D and some neurotransmitters. However, the evidence provided does not establish that inadequate intake of pantothenic acid leading to impaired function of the above mentioned health relationships occurs in the general EU population.The Panel considers that, in order to bear the claims, a food should be at least a source of pantothenic acid as per Annex to Regulation (EC) No 1924No /2006. Such amounts can be easily consumed as part of a balanced diet. The target population is the general population.The Panel concludes that a cause and effect relationship has not been established between the dietary intake of pantothenic acid and maintenance of normal bone, maintenance of normal teeth, maintenance of normal hair, maintenance of normal skin or maintenance of normal nails.

ABSTRACT. The evaluation of the genetic dissimilarity of common bean lines obtained by the breeding program is significant to identify duplicate accessions, to select superior lines, and to plan new hybrid combinations. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the genetic dissimilarity of common bean genotypes for agronomic and mineral biofortification traits, select superior lines, and identify promising hybrid combinations for biofortification programs. For this purpose, 169 common bean genotypes (F 6:8 inbred lines and parental cultivars) were evaluated in two experiments conducted in a simple lattice design in Santa Maria-RS, Brazil. The following agronomic traits were evaluated: insertion of the first pod, insertion of the last pod, cycle, mass of 100 grains, grain yield, and concentrations of potassium, phosphorus, zinc, and copper in grains. The genotypes assessed presented genetic variability for all traits, except for copper concentration in grains. The traits that showed the highest contribution to the genetic dissimilarity were the concentrations of phosphorus, potassium, and zinc in grains. In cluster analyses, six groups by principal components and 33 groups by the Tocher optimization method were identified. These methods partially agreed in the formation of different groups of common bean genotypes. Controlled crossings between the lines 17 and 162 with lines of groups XX, XXI, XXIV, and XXXIII are recommended to obtain recombinants with high grain yield and biofortified for phosphorus, potassium, and zinc.
