Concept Introduction:

Micronutrients:

The elements which occur in small amounts in the body but are essential to good health are micronutrients.  The Micronutrients are required in the daily diet in small quantities generally less than 15mg.  Each trace element has a specialized function that is important for proper cellular function.  The micronutrient elements are,

  1. 1. Arsenic
  2. 2. Boron
  3. 3. Chromium
  4. 4. Copper
  5. 5. Cobalt
  6. 6. Fluorine
