Food High in Zinc

[Otrere]

Anyone got any recipes that contain food high in zinc?

Cheers.

As zinc is a carbonized mineral that will not particularly demoleculize well I would recommend a mere zinc supplement with whatever you cook.

 

Not a great answer I know but it will be the best way to increase your zinc intake. Holland and Barrett have it half price at the moment.

Yep, roasted zinc. Take 2 kilos of zinc -  drizzle with olive oil.... only kidding. I'm sure I read somewhere that oysters were high in zinc.

Should have asked for foods high in zinc that are not fish/seafood. Can't stand seafood. Really wanted some sensible answers.

Recipes containing brazil nuts as these are a good source of zinc.

Hope this is more sensible!

Foods high in zinc include red meat, shellfish, eggs.  Also seeds - pumpkin, sunflower and sesame all good sources.

ASDA's own brand zinc supplement is about the cheapest. Also omega-3 fish oils.

Thanks for you replies.

MFEWELL - LOL - I work at Asda (oh, lucky me!) so can get supplements a bit cheaper.
