Minerals
“You can trace every sickness, every disease and every ailment to mineral deficiency.”
Dr. Linus Pauling Ph.D. (Two times Nobel Prize Winner)
Minerals are necessary in aquaculture for maintenance of osmotic pressure, acid-base balance, regulation of pH of blood, haemolymph, urine and other body fluids. They play a vital role in soft tissues, enzymes, some vitamins, hormones and respiratory pigments which are essential for muscle contraction and transmission of nerve impulses.
