Molybdenum
Molybdenum (Mo) is a trace mineral that supports essential enzymatic processes in the body. It plays a key role in detoxifying harmful sulphites and breaking down amino acids. Although molybdenum deficiency is uncommon, maintaining adequate levels is important for overall health. Good dietary sources include legumes, grains, nuts, and dairy products, which help support natural detoxification and healthy enzyme function.
