Background: Zinc has a critical role in metabolism and growth. This study aims to determine the effects of low-energy diets differing in macronutrient composition on zinc intake, estimated zinc bioavailability (phytate:zinc molar ratio) and plasma zinc concentration and associations between zinc status and cardiometabolic markers in obese adolescents with clinical insulin resistance (IR). Methods: Eighty-seven obese adolescents (10-17 years, body mass index z-score 2.3 ± 0.37) with clinical IR were randomized to a low-energy diet (6.0-8.0 MJ), which was either high carbohydrate or moderate carbohydrate with increased protein. Twenty-four-hour dietary recalls were collected at 6, 9 and 12 weeks. Plasma zinc concentration and cardiometabolic markers were assessed at baseline and 12 weeks. Results: Zinc intake did not differ between the 2 diet groups (p = 0.612). The high-carbohydrate group had a higher phytate intake (894 vs. 671 mg, p = 0.018) and phytate:zinc molar ratio (9.4 vs. 7.4, p = 0.009) than the increased-protein group. Plasma zinc concentration did not change from baseline in either of the diet groups, but correlated positively with zinc intake (r = 0.235, p = 0.042) and % energy from protein (r = 0.383, p = 0.001), and inversely with % energy from carbohydrate (r = -0.296, p = 0.010). Conclusions: Low energy diets for obese adolescents at risk of diabetes may need increased protein content to optimize zinc bioavailability.

To the Editor.— Kumar and Anday1 describe three premature infants presenting with edema and hypoproteinemia—the classical signs of kwashiorkor—between 5 and 9 weeks of age. Such cases are not uncommon in developing countries. Kumar and Anday's patients had low plasma zinc concentrations (43, 37, and 42 µg/dL). On this basis the authors claim that edema and hypoproteinemia is a clinical presentation of zinc deficiency not previously reported. We reported2 a clear association between "nutritional" edema and a low plasma zinc concentration in 1979; our subsequent experience has confirmed that edema of this type is always associated with a low plasma zinc concentration, as indeed Kumar and Andays' cases demonstrate.
