The best remedy depends on which mineral is low—so confirmation matters. In general, three pillars help: (1) mineral-dense foods (legumes, whole grains, leafy greens, dairy, eggs, fish, red meat, nuts/seeds); (2) absorption-supporting habits (pair iron with vitamin C, avoid heavy tea/coffee immediately after meals, maintain adequate protein); and (3) lifestyle basics (sleep, stress management, hydration). If supplements are needed, form and dose are crucial: some magnesium forms are better tolerated; prolonged high-dose zinc can disrupt copper; unnecessary iron can cause GI issues and other risks. A practical workflow is evaluation + targeted labs + an 8–12-week plan + recheck.\n\nSource note: NIH ODS mineral fact sheets (sources, absorption, interactions, safety).
