What is Organic and Inorganic Chemicals

Firstly, we need to know what is Organic and Inorganic :

Basically Organic Chemistry is :

       - Matter in its various forms that contain carbon atoms in its chemical structure.

 

And Inorganic Chemistry is :

1.       Matter in its various forms that do not contain any carbon atoms in its chemical structure which consists of  salts or mineral salts.

2.       Naturally found or man-made (Fertilizers )

Dietary elements (commonly known as dietary minerals or mineral nutrients) are the chemical elements required by living organisms :

The 19 are :

The 4 basic organic elements

1.       Carbon

2.       Hydrogen

3.       Nitrogen

4.       Oxygen

The 7 major dietary elements

1.       Calcium

2.       Phosphorous

3.       Potassium

4.       Sulfur

5.       Sodium

6.       Chlorine

7.       Magnesium

8 Important "trace" or minor dietary elements, necessary for Human survival

1.       Iron

2.       Cobalt

3.       Copper

4.       Zinc

5.       Molybdenum

6.       Iodine

7.       Bromine

8.       Selenium

Organic Minerals - these are minerals from a living source i.e. fruits, vegetables, grains and eggs. These minerals can be absorbed (assimilated) by our body and form part of our body nutrient requirements. Minerals found in our food supply are known as "organic".

Inorganic Minerals - are those minerals from mother earth i.e. magnesium, calcium, iron and potassium etc. Minerals found in drinking water are known as "inorganic".

Unfortunately for the human body, it cannot absorb most minerals directly from water because they are in inorganic forms. Humans cannot convert inorganic minerals into organic minerals.

Only plants can absorb inorganic minerals and transform them into organic minerals to nourish our body. Furthermore, the minerals content in water is very minimal (or in trace amounts).
