What is sodium chloride found in?
Seawater and most processed foods in trace or larger amounts.
What are the characteristics of foods that are good for our bodies?
High nutritional component, trace minerals intact, not over-processed, no chemical residues, raised on nutritious foods themselves, no added hormones, not sprayed with budnip, essential oils intact, lack of stress hormones due to poor environment, non GMO. Non CAFO.
Can you get all of the trace elements you need by eating pre-packaged food?
While pre-packaged foods may contain some trace elements, they are often processed and may not provide all the necessary nutrients in optimal amounts. Trace elements are essential minerals required by the body in very small quantities, such as zinc, copper, and selenium. It is recommended to consume a varied diet rich in whole foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds to ensure adequate intake of all necessary trace elements for optimal health.
Minerals that your body requires in very small amounts are called trace minerals. What are examples of trace minerals?
B.ZincC.Iron
If your horse is lacking in minerals what can you do to help add minerals to its diet?
There are vitamins that you can add to their feed. You can purchase these vitamin additives at your local feed store. Also, make sure your horse has free access to a trace mineral salt block.
What are the characteristic that define a mineral?
Nutritionists use the term macromineral to describe the minerals your body needs in large amounts, such as calcium and magnesium. Minerals needed in only small amounts, generally less than 20 milligrams per day, are called trace minerals.Iron, Zinc, Manganese, Copper, Fluoride, Molybdenum, Iodine, Chromium and Selenium are trace minerals.
What happens if you take in trace minerals in large amounts?
It they really are trace minerals, it probably means that you are consuming immense amounts of disastrously bad foods, or at least foods that you should not be consuming in such huge amounts. You are wasting resources that should be going to many, many more people. It could also mean that you are seriously poisoning yourself with minerals that should NOT be present in your body in amounts larger than 'trace'. You can dangerously overeat even foods that would otherwise be good for you.

Do horses need mineral blocks?
Yes, horses may benefit from mineral blocks to help ensure they receive essential minerals that may be lacking in their diet. Providing a mineral block can help support overall health and prevent deficiencies in minerals such as salt, calcium, phosphorus, and trace minerals. It's important to choose a mineral block specifically designed for horses and monitor their intake to prevent overconsumption.
Do minerals provide the body with glucose for energy?
No they do not. Vitamins and minerals provide the trace elements and compounds vital for healthy cell biochemical processes. Often times however, foods that provide glucose (typically sacharides or sugars) will also have the trace elements we call minerals in them. This is because, generally speaking, vitamins we need for living, the animals or plants we ate needed as well!
What are the categories of minerals?
