A Reduced Phytate Diet Does Not Reduce Endogenous Fecal Zinc in Children on a Habitual High‐Phytate Diet

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 2010
ABSTRACTTen Malawian children, ages 3 to 5 years, at risk for zinc deficiency and receiving a habitual maize‐based high‐phytate diet, received maize after phytate reduction for 40 days and had their endogenous fecal zinc (EFZ) measured using stable isotope techniques before and after phytate reduction. The phytate:Zn of the diet before reduction was 23.
