Milk is the best source of calcium, and it is best to eat a little starch food before drinking to achieve the best absorption effect. In addition, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus and vitamin D can promote calcium absorption.
The best source of zinc in the diet is red meat, because vitamin A and zinc are the best partners, and fat-soluble vitamin A in red meat can improve the absorption rate of zinc.
Extended data:
Calcium and zinc cannot be supplemented at the same time
There are many zinc supplement products in the market that claim to be able to "supplement both calcium and zinc". In fact, this is a misleading practice for consumers. Zinc and calcium are incompatible and affect each other's absorption rate. Calcium and zinc compete for carriers and contain each other. You won't let me, and I won't let you. At the same time, the content of calcium in the body is far more than that of zinc, and it is also more active than zinc. At the same time, supplementation will affect the absorption of zinc.
Especially for children, calcium and zinc play an important role in children's growth and development. When calcium and zinc are supplemented at the same time, various forms of calcium, including calcium carbonate, calcium chloride, calcium sulfate, calcium phosphate, calcium citrate, etc., have an impact on the absorption and utilization of zinc.
Therefore, it is best to supplement these two trace elements separately, and the time is best to stagger, with an interval of more than 2 hours; Or it is best to choose zinc supplementation during the day and calcium supplementation at night, which has the best absorption effect.
