Description
Minerals originally come from the earth's crust and are carried into soil, ground water and the sea by erosion. They are the chemical elements that the body needs, other than the four elements that are present in organic molecules (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen). Minerals are essential for a myriad of functions. Your body needs some in larger quantities and others—trace minerals—in minute dosages.
