Extractions: IZiNCG Technical Document The first IZiNCG Technical Document has been compiled by the Steering Committee, and published as a supplement to the United Nations University Food and Nutrititon Bulletin (March, volume 25, supplement 2:S94-S204; 2004). The document may be accessed as PDF file by clicking here This document summarizes current knowledge on the assessment of individual and population zinc status, appropriate interventions to alleviate zinc deficiency, linking zinc with other micronutrient programs, and monitoring and evaluation of programs in zinc nutrition. It is hoped that the document will serve as a technical resource for program planners and an advocacy tool directed towards international agencies and policy makers with interests in public health and nutrition. A briefer, summary version of this document is currently being planned. Other publications on zinc nutrition and human health Several other recent publications are available which review topics related to zinc nutrition and health. These publications represent important contributions to the current knowledge on the importance of zinc deficiency as a public health concern, and on the nature of zinc metabolism and methods of assessing zinc status. They also offer some insight into the global prevalence of zinc deficiency.
