Welcome to our Zinc Calculator. Zinc is an essential nutrient vital for normal growth and development during childhood and adolescence. Zinc plays a key role in optimising the immune system and is also important for wound healing.

This calculator is a simple food questionnaire designed to help you work out if your child is getting enough zinc in the diet to meet their needs.

NOTE: This questionnaire has been designed as a simple but effective way of estimating zinc intake in your child’s diet. It does not provide an exact measure of zinc intake or a basis for medical intervention. For more detailed analysis, please consult a Medical Practitioner or Dietician.
