Last Day Minerals You May Need


3.  Iron

Iron is needed to carry oxygen throughout the
body's cells so they can produce energy.  It has
been said up to 30% of the world's population
may have an iron deficiency.  This deficiency
is called anemia, it is treated with iron pills
and/or a diet in high iron foods. 

4. Potassium

This is an electrolyte that counteracts the
negative effects of sodium.  Potassium helps
maintain blood pressure, helps regulate fluid
balance and controls the electrical activity
of the heart and muscles.

5.  Zinc

Zinc is known for its antioxidant and
immune boosting properties.  It is
commonly taken as a supplement. It is
lost through sweat, so athletes often need
more.
