2 Importance of zinc in human body Overview of terminology Rationale for upper intake level for zinc as recommended by the US Institute of Medicine (2001)
3 Zinc participates in all major biochemical pathways in body Associated with >100 metalloproteins, including transcription factors Nucleic li acid, amino acid, protein biosynthesis, i including specific hormones like insulin, adrenal corticosteroids, testosterone Deficiency produces generalized impairment of multiple functions
4 Especially important for cells with rapid turnover Immune system Intestinal mucosa Increased requirements during rapid growth
5 Immuno dysfunction, increased morbidity, mortality Impaired growth Adverse pregnancy outcomes Abnormal neuro behavioral development
6 Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) Usual daily nutrient intake that meets the needs of 50% of healthy individuals in a particular sex & life stage group Used to estimate prevalence of inadequate intakes Tolerable Upper Intake level (UL) Highest usual daily nutrient intake level likely to pose no risk ikof adverse health effects for almost all individuals in a particular sex & life stage group Used to estimate prevalence of excessive intakes
7 Lowest Observed Adverse Effect Level (LOAEL) No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL)
8 Four possible levels: 0.5 LRNI EAR RDA UL EAR: average nutrient requirement LRNI Deficient level: 2SD below EAR (probably below needs of almost all individuals (UK)) RDA/RNI: 2SD above EAR. (meets needs of 97 98% 98% population) 0 UL Tolerable upper level: risk of -5 2SD +2SD excessive intakes very low, possibly Nutrientrequirement requirement (amount per day) affecting 3% population
9 IZiNCG (2004): provide EARs; NOAEL for Zn EAR for mixed/refined vegetarian diets; Phy:Zn: 4 to 18 OR unrefined cereal based diets; Phy:Zn > 18 WHO (2005): give EARs & UL s ULs EAR based on three levels of Zn bioavailability Country specific EARs & ULs if available eg: IOM DRV s; UK DRI s etc Bioavailability: based on habitual diets
10 Adverse effects associated with chronic intake of supplemental zinc include: Suppression of immune response Decrease in high density lipoproteins cholesterol (HDL) Reduction of copper status No data indicating adverse interactions between zinc and other nutrients when zinc is found in food. US Institute of Medicine, 2001
11 Based on results from Yadrick et al (1989): 18 healthy women (aged 18 to 40 yrs) 50 mg/d supplemental zinc for 10 weeks Dietary zinc intake estimated at 10 mg/d (based on results from 3 rd NHANES Study) Significant reduction of ESOD activity LOAEL at 60 mg zinc /day Support for LOAEL of 60 mg/d provided by other studies (Fischer et al, 1984) US Institute of Medicine, 2001
12 Extrapolation from LOAEL to UL with uncertainty factor (UF) of 1.5 LOAEL 60 mg/d UL = = = 40 mg/d UF 1.5 Zinc UL for adults 19 yrs: 40 mg/d of zinc US Institute of Medicine, 2001
13 Based on results from Walravens & Hambidge (1976): 68 healthy full term infants Control grp: Formula with 1.8 mg zinc/l Suppl grp: Formula with 5.8 mg zinc/l Duration: 6 months No change in copper status Consideration of average intake of human milk (0.78 L/d) for infants aged 0 6 months NOAEL at 45mg 4.5 zinc / day US Institute of Medicine, 2001
14 Given that no adverse effects at mg/d, uncertainty factor (UF) set at 1.0 Zinc UL for infants: 0 6 months : 4 mg/d of zinc 7 12 months : 5 mg/d of zinc US Institute of Medicine, 2001
15 No adverse effects of zinc in children and adolescent could be found Adjustment of UL for older children based on relative body weight Zinc UL for children: 1 3 yrs : 7 mg/d of zinc 4 8 yrs : 12 mg/d of zinc 9 13 yrs : 23 mg/d of zinc Zinc UL for adolescents yrs : 34 mg/d of zinc US Institute of Medicine, 2001
16 Inadequate data to justify a different ULfor pregnant and lactating women Same UL as for non pregnant and nonlactating women Zinc UL for pregnant and lactating women: yrs : 23 mg/d of zinc yrs : 40 mg/d of zinc US Institute of Medicine, 2001
17 Adverse effects resulting from excess zinc intake from food and supplements appears to be low at above described levels. The UL applies to total zinc intake from food, water and supplements (including fortified foods) The UL is not meant to apply to individuals who are receiving zinc for treatment purposes US Institute of Medicine, 2001
18 Is it time to re assess the recommended UL for zinc?
