How Much Nutritional Iron Deficiency in Humans Globally Is due to an Underlying Zinc Deficiency?

2012-01-01

Abstract excerpt

This chapter recounts the impact of the green revolution (1960–1980) on subsequent world food supplies and its consequences in terms of human nutrition and health via its impact on the micronutrient status of staple foods and of diets generally. Micronutrient deficiency disorders now occur in over half of the total human population. This chapter then reviews the recent medical literature on the molecular physiolog...
