Abstract
Zinc is an essential trace element in human nutrition and its deficiency is a world nutritional problem. However, the zinc content of foods is low and its availability is conditioned by several physiologic and dietary factors. For that reason, the objective of the present work is to compile past and present information about the influence of these factors on zinc availability to try to improve this availability.
