mineral content

Mineral content refers to the amount of essential minerals—like calcium, magnesium, potassium, and iron—in a food or substance. These minerals are vital nutrients that help your body function properly, supporting processes such as bone strength, muscle contractions, nerve signaling, and oxygen transport. The mineral content indicates how much of these nutrients you get from a particular food, helping you make informed dietary choices to meet your health needs. It’s measured in units like milligrams or grams per serving or 100 grams of the food.
