THE FUNCTION OF MINERAL :

• Help chemical reactions take place in cells

• Help muscles contract
• Keep the heart beating
• Fluid and electrolyte balance
• Blood formation
• Building healthy bones and teeth (Calcium, phosphorus,
and magnesium and Flouride)
• Maintaining a healthy immune system
 MINERALS
Mineral What the mineral does
Sodium Fluid and electrolyte balance, supports
muscle contraction and nerve impulse
transmissions
Chloride Maintains fluid and electrolyte balance,
aids in digestion
Potassium Maintains fluid and electrolyte balance,
cell integrity, muscle contractions and
nerve impulse transmission
Calcium Formation of bones and teeth, supports
blood clotting
Phosphorus Formation of cells, bones and teeth,
maintains acid-base balance
Magnesium Supports bone mineralization, protein
building, muscular contraction, nerve
impulse transmission, immunity
Iron Part of the protein hemoglobin (carries
oxygen throughout body's cells)

 MINERALS
Mineral Function Food sources
Zinc Enzymes production of genetic Green vegetables, tomato juice
material/proteins, vitamin A transport, ,lentils, oysters, shrimp, crab,
wound healing, sperm production and the meats yoghurt, cheese
normal development of the fetus
Selenium Antioxidant, works with vitamin E to seafood, meats and grains
protect body from oxidation
Iodine Thyroid hormones regulate growth, salt, seafood, bread, milk,
development and metabolic rate cheese
Copper Absorption/utilization of iron, formation of meats, water
hemoglobin , enzymes
Manganese Facilitates many cell processes widespread in foods
Fluoride formation of bones and teeth, helps to fluoridated drinking water, tea,
make teeth resistant to decay seafood
Chromium Associated with insulin and is required for vegetable oils, liver, whole
the release of energy from glucose grains, cheese, nuts
Molybdenum Facilitates many cell processes legumes, organ meats
IRON REQUIREMENTS VARY BY AGE AND SEX
DISEASES CAUSED BY DEFICIENCY OR EXCESS OF
MINERALS

 DEFICIENCY AND TOXICITY IRON

ANEMIA (LOW RED BLOOD CELLS FORMATION)
HEART DISEASE (EXCEES IRON)

 DEFICIENCY AND TOXICITY CALSIUM

OSTEOPOROSIS (BONES BECOME WEAK AND BRITTLE DUE TO
MINERAL LESS)
KIDNEY-STONES (EXCEES CALCIUM)
Calcium, sodium,potassium, chloride, Iodine, sodium, chloride
etc
Calcium, selenium, iron, zinc, etc fluoride
