• Iodine
• Copper
• Fluorine
• Zinc
• Cobalt
• Chromium
Types of Minerals cont….
24. • Calcium- helps to build bones, also important in regulating blood clotting,
muscle tone, and nerve function.
• Phosphorus- helps in providing energy to work
• Sodium- is an osmoregulator (control water potential) and also helps in
muscle contraction & relaxation.
• Chlorine- part of hydrochloric acid, important for digestion.
• Sulfur- is an important constituents of all proteins (structural,
enzymes, hair & nails)
• Iron- transport of oxygen in the blood
Functions of minerals
25. Manganese- plays a role in fat and carbohydrate metabolism, calcium
absorption, and blood sugar regulation
Iodine- regulates metabolism as a part of thyroid hormone
Zinc- needed for the body's defensive (immune) system to properly work.
It plays a role in cell division, cell growth, wound healing
Copper- facilitates absorption & function of iron
Fluorine- decreases tooth decay
Cobalt- a part of vit. B12
Chromium- regulates glucose metabolism

Coenzyme are small molecules. They cannot by themselves catalyze a reaction but they can help enzymes to
do so. In technical terms, coenzymes are organic nonprotein molecules that bind with the protein
molecule (apoenzyme) to form the active enzyme (holoenzyme).
Cofactors are non-protein chemicals that are attached to a protein and required for that protein to do its job
