Posted by Judy Cheung-Wood on
3. Spinach: Good old Spinach is a tried and tested way to get a range of great vitamins and minerals into your diet, to support your skin and overall health. Spinach contains one of the highest levels of zinc, closely followed by raw Radicchio.
4. Pumpkin and Squash Seeds: They might taste yummy, but believe it or not they are also good for you! Along with Sunflower seeds and Chia seeds, these beauties are packed full of vitamins and minerals that are ideal for the skin, including zinc and VitaminB5.
5. Nuts: Yummy as they are, roasted Cashews are actually incredibly rich in zinc, with 5.6mg per 100g. Along with Pine Nuts, Pecans, Almonds, Walnuts and Hazelnuts, Cashews are in if you are wanting to increase your zinc intake.
6. Beans: Cooked Mung Beans are a great source of zinc, and whilst they may not be appealing to all tastes, they are fine when disguised in dishes such as soups and curries. Give it a try today and reap the benefits! Adzuki Beans, Chickpeas and Kidney Beans are other great options.
