“…Organs with high zinc content are the liver, muscles, pancreas, testicles, prostate and the retina of the eye [ 16 ]. In contrast, the cellular zinc concentration is relatively high [ 2 , 5 , 17 ].…”

“…Most zinc is found in oysters and wheat germ, although bioavailability from wheat germ is also limited, followed by muscle meat and animal offal and by far potatoes and wholemeal bread [ 27 ]. Leafy vegetables and fruits, in particular, have low zinc concentrations with high water content [ 16 , 28 , 29 ]. Since meat contains a lot of zinc, meat-based mixed diets can hardly cause zinc deficiency in healthy people due to their diet.…”

Zinc Deficiency—An Independent Risk Factor in the Pathogenesis of Haemorrhagic Stroke?

Zinc is an essential trace element for human health and plays a fundamental role in metabolic, immunological and many other biological processes. The effects of zinc are based on the intra- and extracellular regulatory function of the zinc ion (Zn2+) and its interactions with proteins. The regulation of cellular zinc homeostasis takes place via a complex network of metal transporters and buffering systems that react to changes in the availability of zinc in nutrition, chronic diseases, infections and many other processes. Zinc deficiency is associated with impairment of numerous metabolic processes, reduced resistance to infections due to impaired immune functions, changes in skin and its appendages and disorders of wound healing and haemostasis. While ischemic heart attacks (myocardial infarction) occur more frequently with meat-based normal diets, haemorrhagic strokes are more frequently observed with vegetarian/vegan diets. The causes are discussed as deficiencies of various micronutrients, such as vitamin B12, vitamin D, various amino acids and also zinc. In the present review, after a description of the functions of zinc and its resorption, a discussion of daily food intake will follow, with a special focus on the importance of food composition and preparation for the zinc balance. The close interrelationships between proteins, especially albumin and zinc will be discussed. Finally, the possible causes and consequences of a zinc deficiency on the blood vessels and blood coagulation are considered.

ZusammenfassungDas Spurenelement Eisen ist wichtig für Blutbildung, Sauerstofftransport und Immunsystem. Ein Mangel, der ca. 30% der Weltbevölkerung betrifft, ist ebenso zu vermeiden wie ein Überschuss, der als Risikofaktor für Krebs und koronare Herzkrankheiten gilt. Freie Eisenionen fördern die Bildung von Sauerstoffradikalen und oxidativen Stress. Bei den körpereigenen Schutz- und Entgiftungsmechanismen sowie bei der Immunantwort spielt Zink eine zentrale Rolle. Neben der optimalen Nährstoffversorgung trägt auch eine Kalorienrestriktion zum Schutz des Organismus vor Umweltgiften und Stoffwechselprodukten bei.
