Someone who hasn't been digesting protein well for a long time may end up malnourished in spite of the diet being adequate, Raj mentioned this before. Once supplementation with purified amino acids starts, the person will be switching from destruction to construction and micronutrients have to be abundant.

It's one more reason to be mindful with these.

"Whereas it is presumed that hepatic depots of copper are available at times of increased copper requirement, there is little evidence that such specific reserves exist for manganese or zinc. Thus, although adventitious release of zinc and manganese from muscle and bone may occur during states of nutritional deficiency and tissue catabolism, as soon as these processes are reversed, the organism becomes totally dependent on an adequate exogenous supply of the metals. No doubt this requirement for an additional source applies also when functional reserves of metals have become depleted during a period of deficiency."
