I Plan To Drink the "1st Step Energy" vitamin supplement but it has trace minerals. Are these dangerous?

A 1 ounce sample of the "1 Step Energy" vitamin supplememnt contains less than 1/2 microgram of the following trace minerals: Trace Minerals: Bismuth, Boron, Bromide, Cerium, Cesium, Chloride, Cobalt, Copper, Dysprosium, Erbium, Europium, Fluoride, Gadolinium, Gallium, Germanium, Gold, Hafnium, Holmium, Indium, Iridium, Kjeldhal, Nitrogen, Lanthanum, Lithium, Molybdenum, Neodymium, Nickel, Niobium, Platinum, Praseodymium, Rhenium, Rhodium, Rubidium, Samarium, Scandium, Silicon, Silver, Strontium, Tantalum, Tellurium, Terbium, Thullium, Tin, Titanium, Tungsten, Vanadium, Yiterbium, Zirconium. I am wondering if any of the above trace minerals should stop me from drinking this drink because of health issues related to the mineral. I plan to drink this after every workout. Are the above minerals safe? Does anyone drink this "1st Step Energy?"

Answer
I cannot tell you specifically about each of the minerals but in general trace minerals are known to be very good for you and strongly enhance and support the immune system. Some of them such as boron and selenium are vital for the proper functioning of our organs. Here is a website where you might find more about the particular trace minerals and their value in the vitamin supplement you are taking. http://www.traceminerals.com/

Answer
Major minerals are minerals you absolutely need to get everyday for good health (sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and sulfur). They regulate fluid in your body, as well as help you absorb amino acids and all that good stuff. Trace minerals are minerals that you only need a little bit of (iron, zinc, copper, chromium, fluoride, iodine, selenium, manganese, and molybdenum). They help absorb nutrients and with the oxygen flow in your blood.

What Are "Trace Minerals And Elements" In the Context Of Nutrition???

Trace Minerals should be consumed as supplements and they can potentially delay physical ageing. Does anyone know what these "Trace Minerals" Are???

Answer
Minerals such as manganese, chromium, copper, molybdenum, zinc and other heavy metals, among others, are usually considered trace minerals. These minerals (and others) when consumed in larger quantities can be quite harmful (as they are not water soluble), but small amounts are needed on a molecular level for overall good health. Most high-end vitamins include these items.
