Talk:Mineral (nutrient)

message: In Water purification for Drinking water is by act, regulation, decree: enrich with minerals and level up the Ph (to about 7 and more; seven is called ´neutral´), with standard chemical materials. 
 But, sorry, with what kind of minerals, please ? Thanks.

replies: text: I am not sure what your questions are, but go ahead and edit the articles (properly referencing) if you believe an improvement is possible. Be aware that for any health-related statements there is a high standard for references to be considered reliable sources. See WP:MEDRS. This is true if there is a controversy, such as demineralized water being good for health or bad for health. David notMD (talk) 08:56, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: Asked and answered in 2016: "Very briefly, if a large amount is consumed all at once, as with a dietary supplement, little is absorbed, and what is not absorbed passes through to the large intestine where it causes watery stools and diarrhea. The U.S. UL is set at 350 mg." That applies only to consumption as a dietary supplement. The adult RDA of 420 mg/day can be achieved via diet with or without a smaller supplement. For European Union, UL is also smaller than the recommended intake. David notMD (talk) 10:29, 23 January 2022 (UTC)

message: Iron, the WHO says, is the most nutrient deficiency in the world. 
The most parts of the body providing with oxygen, over oxygen transport to over the blood circle (and not to forget the used oxygen transport from), is the most important nutrient, which the body requires, to work short and long term properly, through being provided with oxygen. 
Not only for the organs and parts of the body alone directly, because of the work these organs and parts of the body do, which require for this work and processes this oxygen also. And more than just sufficient. 
(The usual lot of oxygen breathing does the body provide more with oxygen, the more (enough) iron the body is provided with. Note: Vitamin C does support the intake of iron.) 
Sorry, the wording "organs and parts of the body" I just cannot do better exactly. 
I just intend to indicate this connection, this knowledge, this just easy understandable way, please. (I could figure it out this way by myself, so I cannot search for sources and cannot name sources. Sorry, please. 
To mention still: in Germany does exist a natural herbs product for iron deficiency, for pregnants and ´similar´ urgent need, if OK to note to. From other countries I cannot say.)
