Zinc, copper, and manganese intake and balance for adults consuming self-selected diets

Abstract: Twenty-eight adult men and women participated in a year-long study designed to determine accurately the nutrient intake of adults who lived at home and consumed self-selected diets. During four metabolic balance periods, 7 days each, corresponding to the seasons (spring, summer, fall, winter), duplicates of the diet, and all urine and feces were collected. Daily mean intakes for zinc and copper were 9.9 and 1.2 mg, respectively. These levels were less than the recommended daily intakes of 15 mg for zinc and 2 … Show more

“…Copper intake by subjects of this study exceeded not only 0.6 mg, the EAR of copper required by male and female adults aged 20 or higher, but also the RI of 0.8 mg. The result was similar to daily copper intake levels reported in other studies, such as 0.9 [11] and 1.2 mg [12] in Korea, 1.2 mg [13] in the US and 1.2 mg [14] in Spain, but it was lower than the 1.7∼3.7 mg [9,15,16] in Korea, 1.6 mg [17] in Bangkok and 1.9 mg [18] reported in Canada. The selenium intake by subjects of this study was 128.2 μg, higher than the RI of 50 μg for male and female adults aged 20 or higher.…”

“…However, the lack of relation between vitamin E intakes and plasma concentrations observed in this study could also be related to an inaccurate measurement of vitamin E intakes. The seasonal changes in Cu intakes contrast with the results obtained in the United States, where intakes remained similar all year long (Patterson et al, 1984). Furthermore, no correlation between dietary intakes and serum concentrations of Cu or Zn were found in the United States (Patterson et al, 1984) in contrast with the correlation between copper intakes and serum concentrations found in January and February 1996.…”

Furthermore, no correlation between dietary intakes and serum concentrations of Cu or Zn were found in the United States (Patterson et al, 1984) in contrast with the correlation between copper intakes and serum concentrations found in January and February 1996. The relation between zinc intakes and serum concentrations depended on season and adjustment, suggesting the determining role of factors, ie smoking, energy, protein and alcohol intakes on serum zinc concentrations (Kant et al, 1989;Hashim et al, 1996).…”

“…The Panel notes that subjects' usual diet was modified during the collection period in the study by Patterson et al (1984) and that the time was likely to have been too short for a new equilibrium to have been reached, given the half-life of manganese (13-37 days; see Section 2.3.6).…”
