Minerals in Nuts, ginkgo nuts, canned
Minerals are classified as micronutrients, because you don’t need too much of them, but that doesn’t negate their importance. Your body cannot make minerals, so it’s essential you get them all from your food. Minerals don’t contain calories, so they aren’t a direct source of energy.
Sodium (307 mg), Potassium (180 mg) and Phosphorus (54 mg) are some of the minerals present in Nuts, ginkgo nuts, canned.
