Minerals are more than squares on
the periodic table; they’re crucial to
our health. Learn the names and
functions of minerals, and which foods
are the best sources to ensure proper
nutrition.
Understand the differences
between vitamins and minerals, and
what defines a mineral as “major” or
“trace.”
Also, see how minerals behave
in our bodies once we ingest them,
as well as how they react with each
other in many vital bodily functions.
Learn:
- If minerals are good, why not take supplements?
- Which is best? More minerals or more balance?
- Is lead bad and iron good? Surprise, both are essential AND both are toxic.
- Why calcium really makes bones stronger?
- Why the view that some chemicals are "bad" is simplistic.
- Why taking extra amounts of one mineral can "bump out" supplies of one another.
