MINERALS & OLIGOELEMENTS: ESSENTIAL MOLECULES FOR LIFE
Minerals are found in plants. There are 22 minerals that have been identified to be necessary for specific metabolic functions or whose absence would result in physiological impairment.For vitamins to do their job, they require minerals. Minerals must be obtained from food or supplements.

BODY BENEFITS OF CALCIUM:

• increase the density of bones and teeth
• help prevent hair loss 
• stimulate nail grow
• together with magnesium and silicon prevents muscle stiffness and reduces muscle spasms 
• anti-allergic and anti-asthma effects 
• produce bronchial dilation 
• help gastric mucosal protection
• can reduce cancer risk

• works as a means for the natural regulation of digestion, and consequently proves beneficial if you are suffering from constipation
• has an effect on male fertility, as it is one of the most important elements to be found in spermatozoid head
• the sperm efficiency stops whenever there is a disturbance with regard to the metabolism of magnesium or there is too little magnesium - the consequence of which is simply that the sperm are immobilised.​

• regulation of body temperature

MANGANESE:

• regulation of blood sugar level
• inflammations 
• preventing osteoporosis
• essential for brain and nervous system
• aids in vitamin absorbtion

SELENIUM:

• important antioxidant especially in combination with vitamin E
• reduce the risk of certain tumors, especially lung, gastrointestinal, prostate and colorectal tumors
• induces repair of DNA in damaged cells, and so limits growth of cancer cells
• help slow oxidation of LDL and so lowers the risk of coronary artery disease 
• may protect the body against toxic effects of heavy metals like mercury, lead and arsenic, by binding to them to render them less harmful

• critical for proper functioning of the thyroid gland and the production and regulation of thyroid hormones
• may boost fertility as it enhances sperm production and movement 
• has been used to treat skin disorders like eczema, acne and rosaceea
• strengthens the immune system 
• supplementation is sometimes prescribed by doctors for patients with HIV/AIDS, as the disease may cause malabsorption and depletion of nutrients, including selenium which appears to slow progression of the virus by boosting the immune system
