The following are just a few of the trace minerals that should be included in your daily diet, and can be obtained through organic food, water and all natural mineral supplements, such as coral mineral supplements and products.

• • Boron

    These trace minerals provide metabolic benefits in the human body. Though its exact role in the body is relatively unknown, recent experimental studies have show that benefits of trace amounts of boron may be essential for energy utilization and the creation and preservation of bone.

  • Chromium

    Trace mineral research has shown that chromium is very important when it comes to your body’s carbohydrate metabolism. If you have a chromium deficiency, you may not have adequate blood glucose, which can result in a higher chance of heart disease and diabetes.

  • Copper

    You can’t go wrong with copper. Much like iron, you need copper in order to oxidize vitamin C, which everyone knows is essential in both life and as part of a balanced breakfast. Furthermore, copper trace minerals benefits the body with iron in the production of functional red blood cells.

  • Fluorine

    An essential trace mineral, fluorine combined with calcium creates an insoluble calcium fluoride. Fluoride benefitd the body by preventing tooth decay and strengthening bones.

• • Iodine

    Iodine is an important trace mineral, though it is often misunderstood. A deficiency of iodine results in goiters, lower vitality, lower metabolism, and the inability to think logically. Iodine is also significant to the formation of the thyroid hormone.

  • Lithium

    Lithium is a trace mineral that interacts only with sodium. It can be obtained from drinking water and is essential to balancing the part of the brain that dictates behavioral and emotional behaviors.

  • Manganese

    A natural muscle builder, Manganese trace minerals benefits the bones and ligaments by strengthening them. It is usually found in the bone, liver, kidneys, heart, pituitary gland, pancreas, spleen, and intestines.

  • Molybdenum

    Another essential trace mineral, Molybdenum is found concentrated in the liver, adrenal glands, kidneys, bones, and skin. Most people obtain molybdenum from milk and other dairy products, dried legumes, organ meats, and whole grains.

  • Nickel

    Scientists have found the presence of nickel in DNA and RNA. Nickel is essential in fortifying the structure of the cell membrane. Furthermore, benefits of trace amounts of nickel include assisting in the reproduction and replication of protein.

  • Rubidium

    Large amounts of rubidium have shown to be capable of suppressing potassium. On the other hand, small amounts of rubidium trace elements have shown to benefit the body. Rubidium trace minerals benefits include transporting defective cell membranes and helping suppress tumor growth by limiting glucose carrying cancer cells.

  • Selenium

    Selenium is a trace mineral that helps to prevent oxygen damage to the cell membrane. Cell membranes are critical for the proper absorption of nutrients and the elimination of toxic wastes. It’s also known to be a powerful antioxidant, perfect for your immune system.

  • Silicon

    Silicon is found in the hair and skin. It is important in the formation of the collagen found in bone, cartilage, and other connective tissues. It is also necessary for the formation of other connective tissues like elastin, which help maintain the integrity of the elastic quality of blood vessels – an important feature of blood pressure control – and other tissues.
