Potassium, the third most abundant mineral in the human body, is an essential mineral whose ions are vital for the functioning of all living cells! Potassium plays a role at both the cellular and electrical level – considered and electrolyte because it carries a tiny electrical charge – it is found in red blood cells, muscles and bones. Our bodies use potassium ions to conduct electrical impulses along muscle and nerve cells, it helps to boost the efficiency of nerve reflexes that transmit messages from one body part to another, this in turn helps in muscle contraction to perform various activities without tiring quickly.
Potassium also has vasodilating properties that work to relieve the tension of blood vessels which is one of the main causes of high blood pressure. It is helpful in reversing the role of sodium in unbalancing normal blood pressure thus acting as a vital component that maintains the normality of blood pressure in the human body. The importance of potassium should not be underestimated in your dietary plan, most famously found in bananas other rich sources of potassium include spinach, avocados and coconut water.
Potassium contributes to:
· normal functioning of the nervous system
· normal muscle function
· the maintenance of normal blood pressure
Next to calcium, phosphorus is the most abundant mineral in the body. In order to be properly utilised it must be in proper balance with calcium and magnesium in the blood, these are the two minerals it works in tandem with to create strong bones and teeth, also helping to lay the foundation of a strong skeletal structure. It is an essential part of our diet - especially as children when the most bone growth and development occurs. Both DNA and RNA contain phosphorus which make it important for cellular reproduction.
Phosphorus also contributes to the repair process and maintenance of various body cells which suffer from daily wear and tear, it makes up part of the phospholipids that surround cells - phospholipids help to protect and regulate what goes in and out of each cell. Phosphorus plays an essential role in how the body stores and uses energy, it aids in the process of energy extraction by stimulating the process of metabolism of different nutrients including niacin(B3) and riboflavin(B2), helping to maximise the uptake of these two vitamins in particular. The best sources for this mineral are chlorella, dairy, whole grains, legumes and nuts.
Phosphorus contributes to:
· the maintenance of normal bones
· the maintenance of normal teeth
· the normal growth and development of bone in children
· the normal function of cell membranes
· normal energy-yielding metabolism
