ABSTRACT. Body element status and its relationship to the physical and functional condition of the body were estimated in army conscripts (Internal Troops, 36 males). The presence of correlations between physiological parameters and element status was demonstrated. The greatest number of correlations was observed for macro elements, primarily calcium, magnesium and phosphorus, with higher functional characteristics of the body corresponding to relatively low content of macro elements in hair. An association of indices, characterizing the adaptation reserves, to zinc and potassium levels was found. There was also found a negative dependence of height-weight indices and adaptation indicators on the levels of toxic trace elements cadmium, mercury, nickel, arsenic, as well as a positive one – on selenium level.

KEYWORDS: element status, macro elements, trace elements, hair, blood serum, body functional state.
