Zincatest is a simple non-invasive test, which gives an indication of Zinc status. Zincatest can also be given as a zinc supplement, ideal for those who find tablets and capsules difficult to swallow. Up to one in three adults in the UK receives less than the Reference Nutrient Intake (RNI) for Zinc, is largely a result of refining processes which remove up to 90% of the available Zinc content from cereal grains, along with the trend to eat less animal-derived protein. Zinc is an integral part of insulin, the hormone used in the treatment of diabetes, and is essential in the synthesis of all proteins in the body. Any extraordinary physical or mental effort of the body can increase Zinc needs, or cause extra Zinc losses, while foods rich in phytates and fibre inhibit the absorption of Zinc from food. One fifth of the Zinc present in the body is found in the skin. Suitable for vegetarians.
