Foods High in Zinc
Top 200 foods ranked by zinc per 100g — USDA FoodData Central
Zinc is an essential trace mineral involved in immune function, protein synthesis, wound healing, DNA synthesis, and cell division. It is also required for normal taste and smell. Adult men need 11 mg per day; women need 8 mg per day. Zinc from animal sources is generally better absorbed than zinc from plant sources due to the presence of phytates in plant foods. Top food sources include oysters, red meat, poultry, beans, nuts, and whole grains. Source: NIH Office of Dietary Supplements.
