Classification of Micronutrients

if you haven't read the first post of it, you can read first... Micronutrients : Slightly needed with High Benefit...

Micronutrients have three classification :
  1. Vitamins,  is an organic compound required by an organism as a vital nutrient in limited amounts. An organic chemical compound (or related set of compounds) is called a vitamin when it cannot be synthesized in sufficient quantities by an organism, and must be obtained from the diet.
  2. Minerals, is a naturally occurring substance that is solid and stable at room temperature, representable by a chemical formula, usually abiogenic, and has an ordered atomic structure. It is different from a rock, which can be an aggregate of minerals or non-minerals and does not have a specific chemical composition. and of course because it's about nutrition so, mineral is a substance that has a function in the body
  3. Marginal Compounds, is a micronutrients compound that are not included on Minerals or Vitamins.
