I have noticed that at least 2 people i know on the 811diet have developed zinc deficiencies after 3 yrs. Its because a diet high in fructose binds to trace elements like zinc and interfers with absorption. zinc is too much of an important mineral to the body and increasing pumpkin seeds isn't going to fix the problem. taking a supplement and cutting down on fruit will though. I don't understand why 811's sacrafice themselves, get sick and ignore the many crys of their bodies, just to fit into a someone eles's dietary ideals.
