Summary: Minerals are inorganic nutrients that keep the body healthy and alive.  Minerals help treat and prevent severe illnesses.  Minerals can only perform their function when inside the body.  Minerals such as magnesium, calcium, zinc, potassium, and iron are a big role to the body.  These different minerals help the skin, the red blood cells, and the bones to stay healthy.  The way to get a lot of minerals is by doing a diet that consists of eating a lot of vegetables and fruits.

Impact: Not only do you gain minerals when you eat fruits and vegetables, but you also gain vitamins.  Vitamins and minerals are one the greatest things that our body can have.  Both of these will keep our bodies healthy and strong.
