Minerals

Mineral is a product of natural processes that are characterized by certain, but not necessarily a fixed chemical composition, stability in certain physical conditions, regular internal structure.

Minerals like sodium and potassium typically function independently in the body, whereas minerals such as calcium and phosphorus function as parts of simple mineral combinations, such as bone mineral.
Minerals are important for nervous system functioning, other cellular processes, water balance, and structural systems.
