Micronutrients
Micronutrients include minerals (such as calcium, iodine, iron, magnesium, potassium and sodium) and vitamins (such as the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K, and the water-soluble B-vitamins and vitamin C). Vitamins and minerals are described as essential nutrients and usually have a recommended daily intake.
