13. cobalt integral part of vitamin B12, which is necessary for human existence. Overdose cobalt leads to numerous diseases to cancerous tumors including.

15. Zinc refers to elements that are necessary to all living beings on earth. It is important for metabolism and is found in many important enzymes.



16. iodine component of hormone thyroxin and triiodothyronine, which produces the thyroid gland. Lack of iodine can cause severe disturbances in metabolism.



17. Selenium is an essential trace element for. At the same time, an overdose, it is highly toxic, so its use as a dietary supplement, causes great debate in the circles of scientists.



18. To date, not yet fully how fluoride is necessary for our body. Undisputed fakt- most of the fluoride contained in bones and teeth. Fluoride, like selenium, is highly toxic in overdose
