ABOUT MINERALS!
Even though vitamins may have received more attention, minerals are equally important. Like vitamins, they are also absolutely necessary for the growth, maintenance and repair of the body. These inorganic substances come from soil and water and are absorbed by plants and animals that make up our diet.

They too are micronutrients, but the body needs many minerals in larger amounts compared to vitamins. Like vitamins minerals act as coenzymes, working with enzymes to necessitate the body's processes. In addition they help the body build strong bones and teeth and aid in the manufacture of hemoglobin which helps carry vital oxygen.

Minerals are split into two groups: the macro minerals and the micro minerals depending on the amounts used by the body. The macro minerals, sometimes called the major minerals are magnesium, chloride, calcium, potassium, sulfur, sodium and phosphorus. The micro minerals sometimes called trace elements are needed in relatively smaller amounts.

Some minerals are also known as electrolytes. These minerals form salts that conduct electrical energy needed to keep the body functioning. They are heavily involved in muscle contraction and nerve transmission. Electrolytes are composed of the minerals, chloride, sodium, potassium and magnesium.
