INTRODUCTION
Micronutrients are one of the major groups within specific varied nutrients in body needs
where they includen specific vitamins and minerals such as iron and calcium, which are necessary
for energy production, strong immune system functioning and blood clotting functions.
Minerals plays an important role in growth, bon healthcare and fluid balance within other processes
in body which plays essential role for proper nutrition in body. The report will examine specific
focus on discussing essential micronutrients in body, food essential sources in body and
requirements across human lifespan. Study will also discuss factors essentially needed for proper
absorption in body, and depletion parameters at different life stages.
Role of micronutrient in human biology
Micronutrient in human biology is one of the major groups among nutrients, essentially
needed in body which includes vitamins and minerals essential for energy production and immune
aspects within function in body Minerals plays important role in growth, bone healthcare and fluid
balance and several other procedures significantly. The role of micronutrients including calcium
and iron is to further enhance functional abilities in immune functions, blood clotting and other
functions in body among humans. Calcium and iron further also make body bones strong, immune
system strong for making body effective to fight from diseases and also maintain fluid balance and
several other procedures in consistency within body functionally. Micronutrients maintain human
biology maintenance functionally, and enhance operative strength in body for ideally developing
strong internal biology system diversely. There are various factors, such as keeping check on
appropriate dietary sources and also taking up specific care on lifespan within body for longer
healthy life. The recommended daily intake, and deficiency analysis further also enhances abilities
people to come up with significant diet requirements. It can be also analysed that keeping
significant check on iron and calcium requirements further enhances abilities, where sufficient
excess dietary plans further have to be also evolved. The role of micronutrients in body is also to
maintain proper immune system check within body, and further generate proper check on food
eating aspects significantly.
