Selenium is a trace mineral that is part of many important enzymes, which are substances that our bodies make to speed up chemical reactions. 

We all need some fat in our diets, including the essential omega-3 fat alpha-linolenic acid (ALA).

Calcium is a nutrient that helps to build strong and healthy bones and teeth. It is also involved in our nervous system, blood clotting and muscle function. 

Vitamin B12 is needed to help speed up chemical reactions in our bodies.

Protein gives our bodies structure as part of our muscles and bones.
