I wondered whether addition of milk to coffee impairs its chelating activity. While I found no studies for iron, I came across one study that found that the chelating capacity of zinc was not impaired. Guess that is good news for all the coffee+milk drinkers.

When milk was added to instant coffee and its ApV was prepared, the zinc-chelating activity of ApV was not changed.
