Authors

    Abstract

    Minerals such as calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), sodium (Na), and potassium (K), are inorganic substances of which many are essential for the human body as they play a role in the physiochemical and metabolic processes (e.g., maintaining the acid-base balance, immune functions, and regulation of body fluids). Another important mineral is fluoride (F), which is used in the prevention of dental caries.
