Dan Baumgardt, a Senior Lecturer at the University of Bristol, emphasizes the significance of the periodic table in human health through a detailed analysis of the elemental makeup of the human body. Astonishingly, 98.5% of our body is made up of just six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus.

The remaining 1.5% consists of vital trace elements like potassium, sulfur, iron, zinc, and copper. This research sheds light on the fundamental building blocks of life and their implications for our health and well-being.
