This is because the distribution of zinc in the tissues depends mainly on nutritional factors, i.e. what we eat.<\/p>\n<p>This is where the suitability of our most famous <strong>Spanish ham, Serrano ham<\/strong>, comes into play, because every 100 g of quality Serrano ham, such as Consorcio Serrano Ham, <strong>provides 2.3 mg of zinc<\/strong>. This is approximately 15% of the recommended daily intake of zinc, making it a <strong>good component of the athlete\u2019s diet<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;20866&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #e82f37;\"><strong>A study conducted at the Grand Forks Center<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A study conducted at the Grand Forks Center for Human Nutrition Research and directed by <strong>Henry C. Lukaski<\/strong> showed that if the levels of zinc present in an athlete&#8217;s diet are too low carbonic anhydrase activity is hindered. Carbonic anhydrase, an enzyme that helps the body eliminate the by-products of cellular activity, plays a very important role in physical <strong>performance during exercise<\/strong>. However, this does not occur when the <strong>diet is rich in zinc<\/strong>, like when you eat quality Serrano ham such as\u00a0<strong>Consorcio Serrano Ham<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In this study by the United States Agricultural Research Service, a group of active young men between the ages of 20 and 40 were monitored. Initially, for the first nine weeks, they only ingested 3.5 mg of zinc per day, far below the recommended daily intake, and this caused a <strong>notable reduction in their physical performance<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]In the second phase, after a six-week washout, the same group was again monitored, this time taking a daily 15 mg zinc supplement and participating in athletic activities for nine weeks.\u00a0 In the second phase <strong>they exercised normally<\/strong>, as published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition <em>(Research Article |<\/em><em>Volume 81, ISSUE 5<\/em><em>, P1045-1051).<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It is also known that the <strong>abundant zinc in Serrano ham<\/strong> has an effect on tissue metabolism and physiology, as it influences the <strong>regeneration and recovery of small injuries<\/strong> to the athlete\u2019s musculature. It also intervenes in the <strong>maintenance of the body\u2019s acid balance<\/strong>, which can impact the athlete\u2019s recovery after physical exertion.<\/p>\n<p>For all these reasons, because zinc is important to muscular activity vis-\u00e0-vis the muscle&#8217;s capacity for exertion, we can confidently say that <strong>Serrano ham is an ideal food for enhancing athletic<\/strong> performance and endurance and reducing fatigue.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;]\n<div id=\"ersspace-2\"><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">#ersspace-2 { height: 260px; }\n@media handheld, only screen and (max-width: 767px) {\n\t#ersspace-2 { height: 0px; }\n}<\/style>[vc_row_inner el_class=&#8221;panel-special-aside&#8221;][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #e82f37;\"><strong>Serrano Ham and Proteins for Athletes<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It is widely known that a combination of regular physical activity and <strong>high protein intake<\/strong> contributes to muscle growth and bodily strength. Serrano ham <strong>is high in protein<\/strong>: 100 g of quality Serrano ham, such as Consorcio Serrano Ham, has 31 g of protein, which represents <strong>57% of the daily requirement<\/strong> for men and 76% for women.<\/p>\n<p>If we also take into account that proteins are essential for regenerating the small fibrillar breaks in muscle that occur during exercise and that <strong>Serrano ham has more protein than most other types of meat<\/strong> (chicken, turkey, veal, lamb or rabbit), this makes our Spanish ham a very appropriate food for physical activity.<\/p>\n<p>All this makes serrano ham a highly recommended food, especially if we take into account the other properties of our Spanish ham for healthy and balanced diets.
