The bioavailability of zinc from a lupin milk (16%) and a bread made with lupin flour (27%) was similar to that from comparable soy products (14% and 24% respectively). The availability from composite meals made with lupin flour (28%) and lupin protein isolate (33%) was significantly higher than from soy counterparts (14% and 21% respectively). The low availability of zinc, for a lupin product, from the lupin milk could be due to its high calcium content.
