Hi,

According to "Prescription for Nutritional Healing"
'Daily dosages of more than 100 milligrams of zinc can depress the immune
system while doages under 100 milligram can enhance immune response.
Zinc levels may be lowered by diarrhea, kidney disease, cirrhosis of the
liver, diabetes, and fiber.  The phylates found in grains and legumes
bind with zinc so that it cannont be absorbed.'
