Zinc deficiency during nursing can occur even in breast-fed infants. Zinc reserves accumulated during fetal development modulate the infant's susceptibility to zinc deficiency. Improvement of maternal zinc nutrition during pregnancy is the key for infant's zinc nutritional support and prevention of low-for-lactation-age zinc concentrations of breast-milk.
即使是母乳喂养的婴儿,在哺乳期也可能出现锌缺乏。胎儿发育期间积累的锌储备会调节婴儿对锌缺乏的易感性。孕期改善母体锌营养状况是为婴儿提供锌营养支持以及预防母乳中锌含量低于哺乳期正常水平的关键。
