Note that if you are executing the following code in Python 2.x, you will have to declare the encoding as UTF-8/Unicode - as follows: 1. # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-. The following function is arguably one of the quickest and easiest methods to check if a string is a number.
All beans and legumes are sources of zinc and copper, but the beans with the highest concentrations of both are adzuki and black beans. Adzuki beans, small red-brown beans often used in Asian main dishes and desserts, provide 9.9 milligrams of zinc and over 2,000 micrograms of copper per cup.
Conversely, consuming too much zinc can lead to nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, and headaches in the short term, and can disrupt absorption of copper and iron in the long term. If you have a zinc deficiency, then animal foods are better sources of zinc than plant foods. The current daily value (DV) for Zinc is 15mg. Below is a list of the top ten foods highest in Zinc by common serving size, for more, see the list of high zinc foods by nutrient density, and the extended list of zinc rich foods.
