Resumo: Zinc has catalytic, structural and regulatory functions and is a component of many enzymes. Skin lesions,anorexia, growth retardation, hypogonadism, immune suppression function are the symptoms caused by zincdeficiency. This review aims to present the structural and metabolic zinc functions, emphasising theconsequences of zinc deficiency and the aspects that justify the studies on zinc supplementation, affectinggrowth, immune system and diabetes. Considering that some diseases predispose the organism to zincdeficiency, supplementation, either in isolation or in conjunction with other elements, demonstrates benefits,specifically in improved growth rate, immune system function, reduced respiratory infections and diarrhoeacontrol. In diabetic patients, zinc supplementation has been associated with the variables in metabolic controland the concentrations of plasma and erythrocyte zinc. In populations at risk, Zinc supplementation strategiesshould be implemented, taking into consideration the adequacy of doses intake.

Os sintomas observados na deficiência deste elemento incluem lesões de pele, anorexia, retardo do crescimento, hipogonadismo e alteração na função imune. O objetivo desta revisão foi apresentar as funções metabólicas e funcionais do zinco, enfatizando as conseqüências da deficiência e os aspectos que justificam os estudos envolvendo a suplementação com zinco e seus efeitos sobre o crescimento, sistema imunológico e diabetes. Considerando que algumas doenças predispõem o organismo à deficiência de zinco, a suplementação, isoladamente ou associada a outros elementos, demonstra benefícios, especialmente no aumento da velocidade de crescimento, funcionamento do sistema imunológico, diminuição das afecções respiratórias e controle das diarréias. A suplementação em pacientes com diabetes está relacionada com as variáveis do controle metabólico e as concentrações plasmáticas e eritrocitárias de zinco. As estratégias de suplementação com zinco, em populações de risco, devem ser implementadas, considerando-se as doses adequadas de ingestão. Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2023-09-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9826Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 18 No. 2 (2005): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 18 Núm. 2 (2005): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 18 n. 2 (2005): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9826/7165Copyright (c) 2023 Karine Cavalcanti Maurício de SENA, Lucia de Fátima Campos PEDROSAhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Cavalcanti Maurício de SENA, KarineCampos PEDROSA, Lucia de Fátima2023-11-30T16:57:36Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/9826Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2023-11-30T16:57:36Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
