Calcium, chromium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, potassium, sodium, and zinc are among the metals that are crucial to human health. Many of these metals, including molybdenum, iodine, and copper, have such low metabolic requirements that you're probably already getting them through food without even recognizing it.

Why does our body need metal?

  • By mass, calcium makes up about 1.4 percent of the human body's metal content.
  • We need some metals in our bodies, despite the fact that heavy metals in our bodies might be detrimental, Bianca told.
  • These are trace elements, which are metals that are often found in trace levels within cells, hormones, and enzymes and are crucial for maintaining good health.

For instance, calcium strengthens bones and teeth, activates enzymes throughout the body, aids in controlling blood pressure, and aids in the contraction of muscles, the transmission of signals by nerves, and the clotting of blood.
