Elements Composition of Our body
Posted in 2014

There are several ways to consider the composition of the human body, including  the elements or type of cells. Most of the human body is made up of water, H2O, with cells consisting of 65-90% water by weight. Therefore, it isn't surprising that most of a human body's mass is oxygen. Carbon, the basic unit for organic molecules, comes in second. 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of just six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus.
  1. Oxygen (O) - 65% - Oxygen together with hydrogen form water, which is the primary solvent found in the body and is used to regulate temperature and osmotic pressure. Oxygen is found in many key organic compounds.
  2. Carbon (C) - 18% - Carbon has four bonding sites for other atoms, which makes it the key atom for organic chemistry. Carbon chains are used to build carbohydrates, fats, nucleic acids, and proteins. Breaking bonds with carbon is an energy source.
  3. Hydrogen (H) - 10% - Hydrogen is found in water and in all organic molecules.
  4. Nitrogen (N) - 3% - Nitrogen is found in proteins and in the nucleic acids that make up the genetic code.
  5. Calcium (Ca) - 1.5% - Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body. It's used as a structural material in bones, but it is essential for protein regulation and muscle contraction.
  6. Phosphorus (P) - 1.0% - Phosphorus is found in the molecule ATP, which is the primary energy carrier in cells. It's also found in bone.
  1. Potassium (K) - 0.35% - Potassium is an important electrolyte. It's used to transmit nerve impulses and heartbeat regulation.
  2. Sulfur (S) - 0.25% - Two amino acids include sulfur. The bonds sulfur forms help give proteins the shape they need to perform their functions.
  3. Sodium (Na) - 0.15% - Sodium is an important electrolyte. Like potassium, it is used for nerve signaling. Sodium is one of the electrolytes that helps regulate the amount of water in the body.
  1. Chlorine (Cl) - 0.15% - Chlorine is an important negatively-charged ion (anion) used to maintain fluid balance.
  2. Magnesium (Mg) - 0.05% - Magnesium is involved in over 300 metabolic reactions. It's used to build the structure of muscles and bones and is an important cofactor in enzymatic reactions.
  3. Iron (Fe) - 0.006% - Iron is found in hemoglobin, the molecule responsible for oxygen transport in red blood cells.
  4. Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), Selenium (Se), Molybdenum (Mo), Fluorine (F), Iodine (I), Manganese (Mn), Cobalt (Co) - total less than 0.70%
  5. Lithium (Li), Strontium (Sr), Aluminum (Al), Silicon (Si), Lead (Pb), Vanadium (V), Arsenic (As), Bromine (Br) - present in trace amounts
You have maintain all above daily with your food till the end of your life.
Many other elements may be found in extremely small quantities. For example, the human body often contains trace amounts of thorium, uranium, samarium, tungsten, beryllium, and radium.
The above elements must be maintained till the end of our life if not we may face health problems.   Doctors see your analysis of your body with various tests and prescribe you the element in the form of Medicine.   If you take healthy food all the above will be maintained daily.
