10 Foods High in Zinc
Zinc Rich Food #4: Dark Chocolate
There is no harm in treating yourself to something naughty every now and then, the trick is to do so in moderation. It gets even better when you discover that such treats can also sometimes be nutritious, and dark chocolate is packed full of goodness. It is a good source of vitamins and minerals, including zinc.
100 mg of dark chocolate contains around 9.6mg of zinc, making it a good source of the important metal. Bear in mind, though, that other types of chocolate are likely to contain far more unhealthy additives and less of the goodness that dark chocolate has.
