Can sprouts deplete the body of zinc

[Guest guest]

I was on a diabetic forum not to long ago, an I was describing how I grow

sprouts and how I eat them, and someone posted " I hope you are taking a zinc

supplement because eating sprouts can deplete your body of zinc "

I thought sproutes provided EVERYTHING THE BODY NEEDED.

Is she correct? I bought Optizinc and I take it 3 times a week, to build my

immune system. Of course I do take Vitamin C also.

So is there any truth to this zinc thing?

Thanks if anyone knows.
