Nutritional labeling. The concentration and type of minerals present must often be
stipulated on the label of a food.
Quality. The quality of many foods depends on the concentration and type of minerals they contain, including their taste, appearance, texture and stability.
Microbiological stability. High mineral contents are sometimes used to retard the growth of certain microorganisms.
Nutrition. Some minerals are essential to a healthy diet (e.g., calcium, phosphorous, potassium and sodium) whereas others can be toxic (e.g., lead, mercury, cadmium and aluminum).
Processing. It is often important to know the mineral content of foods during processing because this affects the physicochemical properties of foods.
