Zinc deficiency was common among women, which mainly determined by adequacy of zinc intake, type of zinc compound in the diet, and presence of inhibitors of zinc absorption. This study aimed to assess the zinc status and zinc intake among postpartum women. A cross-sectional study was conducted in three community health centres located in coastal area of Makassar, Indonesia. Eighty-seven women participated in the study. A short Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency for zinc sources was used to collect dietary data. Venous bloods were drawn from all woman and serum zinc concentrations were measured using QuantiChrom Zinc Assay Kit (DIZN-250). Pearson correlation tests were undertaken to investigate relationship between zinc intake, phytate intake, and serum zinc concentration. All women were zinc-deficient (<66 mcg/dL) and 21.8% respondents had inadequate zinc intake. The average zinc intake was 15.9 mg/d with rice and legumes were the main contributors to zinc intake (54.10% and 11.33%, respectively). The average phytate intake was 6.5 gram/d, also with rice and legumes as the main contributors (63.30% and 14.97%, respectively). No significant association was observed between zinc intake and serum zinc concentration as well as between phytate intake and serum zinc concentration (r=0.063; p=0.053 and r=0.150; p=0.165, respectively). Postpartum women in coastal area of Makassar were zinc deficient and had low intake of zinc. The main dietary zinc sources were mainly plant source foods which have low bioavailability and high phytate content.
锌缺乏在女性中很常见，主要取决于锌摄入的充足程度、饮食中锌化合物的类型以及锌吸收抑制剂的存在。本研究旨在评估产后妇女的锌状况和锌摄入量。在印度尼西亚望加锡沿海地区的三个社区卫生中心进行了一项横断面研究。87 名妇女参加了这项研究。使用简短的半定量食物频率法来收集锌源的饮食数据。从所有女性中抽取静脉血，并使用 QuantiChrom 锌测定试剂盒（DIZN-250）测量血清锌浓度。进行皮尔逊相关检验，以研究锌摄入量、植酸盐摄入量和血清锌浓度之间的关系。所有妇女都缺锌（<66 mcg/dL），21.8%的受访者锌摄入不足。平均锌摄入量为 15.9 毫克/天，米饭和豆类是锌摄入量的主要来源（分别为 54.10%和 11.33%）。平均植酸盐摄入量为 6.5 克/天，同样以米饭和豆类为主（分别为 63.30%和 14.97%）。锌摄入量与血清锌浓度之间以及植酸盐摄入量与血清锌浓度之间均未观察到显著相关性（r=0.063；p=0.053 和 r=0.150；p=0.165）。望加锡沿海地区的产后妇女缺锌，锌摄入量低。主要的膳食锌来源主要是植物性食物，其生物利用度低，植酸盐含量高。
