Everyone has heard the names of at least a few of the elements in the periodic table. Oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, etc. Some may know a lot about chemistry- down to the smallest quarks and gluons- and some just know the basics- uh, yeah, we, like, breathe oxygen, right? But how does knowledge apply to everyday life? This website is dedicated to the discovery of what role elements play in the human body. Through these pages, find out what elements make up the human body, the role they play, how one can get these elements, and the toll a body would take if it did not ingest enough.
