  1. Sodium:<\/strong> osmosis, salt and water balance, membrane permeability, muscle irritability. Aldosterone enhances, ANF inhibits its intake. It causes persistent sweating. An overdose causes oedema and hypertension<\/li>
  2. Potassium:<\/strong> is eliminated by the renin-angiotensin system. The lack of sustained vomiting occurs after diarrhoea, diabetes mellitus. It may cause heart attacks<\/li>
  3. Calcium:<\/strong> 1.5-2% of body weight, bones, teeth, muscle contraction, blood clotting, a secondary messenger<\/li>
  4. Vitamin D<\/strong>, calcitonin, parathyroid regulate its level. Due to bad absorption, frequent absence, e.g. menopausal osteoporosis<\/li>
  5. Phosphorus:<\/strong> IC anion, bone, ATP, nucleic acids, coenzymes. Lack of kidney rachitis, heart rupture<\/li>
  6. Chloride:<\/strong> main anion, lack of (bad baby bone) alkalosis, hypovolaemia<\/li>
  7. Sulfur:<\/strong> proteins, mucopolysaccharides, heparin, sulphated compounds, cysteine, methionine<\/li>
  8. Magnesium:<\/strong> IC cation, bone, phosphate transfer, nerve-muscle irritability. In appendages muscle tremors, irritability, dental brittleness<\/li>
  9. Iodine:<\/strong> thyroid hormones, tyrosinoblast tyrosine. Lack: grit, cretinism<\/li>
  10. Fluoride:<\/strong> fluoropathy, tooth development, resistance to acidic effects, stimulates mineralisation. Too much fluoride, fragile bones, loose plaque teeth develop<\/li>
  11. Zinc:<\/strong> is absorbed by transport protein, is a part of metalloenzymes, insulin, Zn protein, renal disease, anaemia, taste disorders, slow wound healing, immune dysfunction<\/li>
  12. Copper: <\/strong>its deficiency increases iron consumption (anaemia), causes irritability (dopamine hydroxylase does not work), collagen synthesis disturbed (part of lysyl oxidase), pigment synthesis decreases (part of tyrosinase)<\/li>
  13. Manganese:<\/strong> liver stores, arginase, carboxylase, kinase cofactor. Lack of sterility, weakness<\/li>
  14. Cobalt:<\/strong> Vitamin B12, pernicious anaemia<\/li>
  15. Chromium:<\/strong> nicotinic acid and glutathione bond, helps insulin attachment to its receptor. Diabetes<\/li>
  16. Selenium:<\/strong> the structure of glutathione peroxidase. Endemic cardiomyopathy<\/li>
  17. Molybdenum<\/strong>: xanthine oxidase, sulphite oxidase, aldehyde oxidase<\/li><\/ol>\n
