Minerals

Minerals are elements that come from the soil and water and cannot be made by living organisms. Most of the minerals in our diets come directly from plants or indirectly from animal sources. Minerals from plant sources and water may vary from place to place, because soil mineral content varies geographically.

 

The minerals listed below are limited to the ones mentioned in the Vitamins, Carotenoids, Trace Elements and other micronutrients sections.
