Required Intakes

The old Recommended Daily Amounts (RDAs) have now been replaced by the term Reference Nutrient Intake (RNI). The RNI is the amount of nutrient which is enough for at least 97% of the population.


Reference Nutrient Intakes for Zinc, mg/day.

Age RNI
0 to 6 months 4.0mg
7 months to 3 yrs 5.0mg
4 to 6 yrs 6.5mg
7 to 10 yrs 7.0mg
11 to 14 yrs 9.0mg

Adult men 9.5mg
Adult women 7.0mg
Pregnant women 7..0mg
Breast feeding women 9.5 to 13mg


Pregnant women do need extra zinc, but it is thought that demands are met by increased absorption from the gut. Breast feeding mothers need extra zinc in their diet. Breast milk contains over 2mg of zinc in the first four months and women need an extra 6mg a day to cover these demands. Breast feeding women must include a generous serving of at least one good source of zinc in their diet each day.
The iron supplements routinely prescribed for pregnant women when there is no sign of anaemia may compromise zinc status. This is because the interactions between essential minerals are complex and too much of one may cause an imbalance of another.

Excess zinc is toxic. Too much zinc will interfere with the metabolism of other minerals in the body, particularly iron and copper. Symptoms of zinc toxicity occur after ingestion of 2g of or more and include nausea, vomiting and fever.
