Trace minerals serve as cofactors for enzymes, meaning
they activate enzymes that regulate various biochemical reactions. These minerals are essential for:
Growth and Development:Β Trace minerals like zinc and iron are critical for normal growth, immune function, and cognitive development, especially in children.
Metabolism:Β Minerals such as selenium and iodine are involved in thyroid function, which controls metabolism and energy production.
Immune Support:Β Zinc, copper, and selenium help the immune system defend the body against infections and diseases.
Bone Health:Β Minerals like manganese and fluoride contribute to bone and dental health, helping to prevent conditions such as osteoporosis and tooth decay.
A multiple vitamin and mineral supplement will contain major minerals, like calcium, magnesium, potassium and zinc, but there are numerous other trace minerals the body needs in very tiny amounts. This is where a trace mineral supplement comes in handy.
Mineral Chi Tonic is a great way to replenish your trace minerals. It contains liquid colloidal trace minerals to make up for the lack of minerals in the diet, but it also has the added benefits of containing adaptogenic herbs that will help to lower your stress level (and who doesn't need that).Β
