As important as vitamins are, they can do
nothing for you without minerals.
Vitamins cannot be assimilated without the aid
of minerals. And though the body can manufacture a few vitamins
on its own, it cannot manufacture a single mineral. All tissues
and internal fluids of our body contain varying quantities of
minerals. Minerals are constituents of the bones, teeth, soft
tissue, muscle, blood, and nerve cells. They are vital to overall
mental and physical well-being.
Minerals act as catalysts for many biological
reactions within the body, including muscle response, the
transmission of messages through the nervous system, the
production of hormones, digestion, and the utilization of
nutrients in foods.
