minerals
Zinc, iron, calcium
Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances with a definite chemical composition.
In nutrition, minerals are essential elements like iron, calcium, and zinc that the body needs in small amounts.
Informally, minerals often means mineral water: I'll have a gin and minerals.
In British usage, minerals can mean soft drinks generally.
