Buy Minerals – From Magnesium & Calcium to Zinc & Selenium
Minerals are inorganic nutrients that the body cannot produce itself and that are therefore taken in through food. According to the quantity required, they are divided into macro-minerals such as magnesium, calcium and potassium, as well as trace elements such as zinc, selenium and iron. In this category you'll find individual minerals and combinations from Scheunengut – vegan and lab-tested.
Origin & Extraction
Minerals originally come from rock and soil and enter the food chain via plants and water. For food supplements they are used as defined compounds, for example as citrates, bisglycinates, oxides or carbonates, which differ in bioavailability and tolerability.
Standardisation & Format
The decisive factor is the statement of the elemental content – that is, the actual amount of the pure mineral per daily dose, not the weight of the entire compound. Minerals are available as a capsule, tablet, powder or drops. They are often combined as an electrolyte complex or supplemented with suitable vitamins.
What to Look For When Buying
- Elemental content and compound form transparently declared
- Origin and quality of the raw materials used
- Vegan, without unnecessary additives
- Independently lab-tested purity

Häufige Fragen zu Minerals
What does the body need minerals for?
Minerals are inorganic nutrients that the body cannot produce itself and absorbs through food. They perform central tasks: magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, calcium to the maintenance of normal bones, zinc to normal immune function and iron to normal oxygen transport. Without minerals, many metabolic processes wouldn't work.
What's the difference between macrominerals and trace elements?
Minerals are divided according to how much the body needs. Macrominerals such as magnesium, calcium and potassium are needed in larger amounts, while trace elements such as zinc, selenium and iron are only needed in very small concentrations. Both groups are essential – they differ only in the amount required, not in their importance.
What does bioavailability mean for minerals?
Minerals are used as defined compounds – such as citrates, bisglycinates, oxides or carbonates. These forms differ in solubility and tolerability. What always matters is the elemental content – that is, the actual amount of pure mineral per daily dose. We declare exactly this value transparently.
Supplement individually or as a combination?
With us, you'll find individual minerals for targeted needs and combinations for broad everyday nutrition. Which approach suits you depends on your goals. All products are made in Germany, lab-tested and vegan, with a clearly stated content and without unnecessary additives.
