Minerals and elements in urine
Mineral nutrients (or dietary minerals) are the chemical elements present in all body tissues and fluids that are necessary for the maintenance of certain physicochemical processes essential to life. The human body requires minerals to convert food into energy, prevent dehydration, and regulate the functions of cardiovascular, skeletal, muscular, and nervous system.
