Abstract

Zinc is essential for several biological processes including those critical for the immune system, DNA synthesis, cell division, and growth. Zinc is involved in the pathophysiology of chronic diseases and protects proteins and lipids from oxidative damage. Inadequate zinc intake and low plasma zinc concentration are associated to an increased risk of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes; however, the evidence is limited. Zinc deficiency increases the risk of infections and poor growth and may contribute to the high burden of infectious diseases and stunting in children living in low- and middle-income countries. The risk of zinc deficiency in the populations of the Nordic and Baltic countries is low.

锌--《北欧营养建议 2023》的范围界定审查

锌是多种生物过程的必需物质，包括对免疫系统、DNA 合成、细胞分裂和生长至关重要的过程。锌参与慢性疾病的病理生理学，保护蛋白质和脂质免受氧化损伤。锌摄入不足和血浆锌浓度低与心血管疾病和 2 型糖尿病等慢性疾病的患病风险增加有关，但相关证据有限。缺锌会增加感染和发育不良的风险，可能是导致中低收入国家儿童感染传染病和发育迟缓的主要原因。北欧和波罗的海国家人口缺锌的风险较低。

期刊介绍： Food & Nutrition Research is a peer-reviewed journal that presents the latest scientific research in various fields focusing on human nutrition. The journal publishes both quantitative and qualitative research papers. Through an Open Access publishing model, Food & Nutrition Research opens an important forum for researchers from academic and private arenas to exchange the latest results from research on human nutrition in a broad sense, both original papers and reviews, including: * Associations and effects of foods and nutrients on health * Dietary patterns and health * Molecular nutrition * Health claims on foods * Nutrition and cognitive functions * Nutritional effects of food composition and processing * Nutrition in developing countries * Animal and in vitro models with clear relevance for human nutrition * Nutrition and the Environment * Food and Nutrition Education * Nutrition and Economics Research papers on food chemistry (focus on chemical composition and analysis of foods) are generally not considered eligible, unless the results have a clear impact on human nutrition. The journal focuses on the different aspects of nutrition for people involved in nutrition research such as Dentists, Dieticians, Medical doctors, Nutritionists, Teachers, Journalists and Manufacturers in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
