Nutrient sources can provide important minerals that are necessary for prevention and elimination of mineral deficiency.These sources are cost-effective, safe, available and convenient.At the same time (Salau and Hasan, 2014) it was proven in the course of study that the food can be an effective source of elements when you choose appropriate products.
The priority elements (iodine, iron and zinc) were listed in the addition to the previously selected elements (selenium, copper, calcium and magnesium) in various joint researches and publications WHO / FAO (WHO, 1996; WHO / UNU / UNICEF, 2001; Yip, 2001; FAO / WHO, 2004).Different supplements can be the sources of these essential elements.However, sometimes supplements have some side effects or toxicity when they are administered in excess or not tolerated by the human body.In this regard, there is a need to study the influence of feeding (certain foods) on the elemental composition of the body.
The mineral deficiency and diseases caused by it constitute approximately 11% of the total global disease burden and take the main position in health care (Lancet, 2008).Countries can lose up to 3% of GDP per year because of deficiency of iron, iodine, zinc (WHO, 1996).
It is necessary to take into account that not only parents can be influenced by nutrition, but also a similar predisposition may arise in the offspring (Ong and Muhlhausle, 2011;Bayol et al, 2009).The influence of nutrition and active consumption of carbonated soft drinks raise concerns about the health (Milei et al., 2011;Nseir et al., 2010;Malik et al., 2006).
It is well known (Skalny, 2003) that it is possible to study the element deficiency based on the elemental composition of hair (wool) (www.microelements.ru).Element analysis of human hair is used when cancer At the same time, there are not enough data on the comparison of the elemental composition of hair and body tissues.Thus, a significant increase of K, Na, P, Cr, Mn, Ni, Si, Sr was observed in the hair of laboratory animals regardless of their diet and during physical exercises.At the same time, the concentration of Ca, Cu, Fe, V, Pb and Al decreased (Alidzhanova et al, 2009).Elemental composition of body, hair and thyroid changed after the artificial change in thyroid status (Notova et al, 2014).
The objective of this research was to study the influence of food stress on elemental composition of muscular tissue and hair of lab animals.
The products were purchased in a retail network.According to the results of laboratory tests (test center, All-Russian Research Institute of Beef Cattle Breeding, accreditation certificate No.ROSS RU 0001.21PF 59) they met the requirements for food products.

Biological substrates
The following biological substrates were used to study elemental status: instant food (general diet, semisynthetic diet), hair (sample collection was taken from side and upper body in the end of research), muscular tissue (after decapitation -skeletal musculature was separated to get an average sample of muscle tissue, then it was ground, homogenized and dried to constant weight).Three samples were taken from each animal; all in all, 135 measurements were recorded (n i ).

Analysis
Duration of the experiment was 60 days.The animals were weighed weekly before feeding and watering.Element analysis of the researched bio-substrates and feed of animals (major feed, IF) was carried out in the lab of ANO "Centre for Biotic Medicine", Moscow, Russia (accreditation certificate ROSS RU.0001.513118 as of May 29, 2003

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Analysis of mineral composition of major and semisynthetic diets used in the experiment attests that the content of chemical elements in them is significantly different (Table 1).
So, semisynthetic diet differed by significantly higher (36.7 times) content of Na and K (4.1 times), lower level of Mg (1.5 times) against a background of practically constant level of Ca and Ð.Among essential and conventionally essential elements in semisynthetic diet lower content of Cu (1,3 times), Fe (1.5 times), Co (1.8 times), Zn (1.6 times), Mn (2 times) and higher levels of Cr (6.6 times), I (3 times), V (1.9 times) was recorded.Higher content of such toxic elements Influence of the studied food mixtures on the elemental composition of skeletal muscles of rats has not yet been studied, that is why the obtained results could not be compared with the published data.At the same time it was previously noted (Prescha et al., 2014) that concentration of calcium and iron in skeletal muscles of rats decreased after the addition of cellulose and pectin to the diets containing chromium.Low calcium levels can adversely affect muscle contractility (Moe, 2005).Calcium increased in bones and liver after the increase of calcium carbonate in the diet of rats by 0.5-1.25%(Shackelford et al., 1994).Moreover, concentration of phosphorus, zinc and magnesium increased in liver, and iron concentration decreased.In this study, the difference in calcium content between control and experimental groups was 0.7%.
Sodium content in I and II experimental groups increased significantly, its level exceeded the control value 3.2 and 3.7 times, respectively.It It is known from literature sources that carbonated mineral water, rich with sodium promotes the reduction of risk of cardiovascular diseases and metabolic syndrome (Schoppen et al., 2004).
When 50% of drinking water was replaced by the carbonated beverage in the diet, it had no significant influence on the content of macroelements in muscular tissue.At the same time, it is observed (Lo et al, 2008) that the consumption of carbonated sugary drinks in greater volume may increase the risk of bone fractures, caries development and promote obesity.
Long-term consumption of IF, and IF with carbonated beverages has resulted in reduction of the following essential elements in muscle tissues of body: zinc by 12.2 -20.6% (P <0.05), Mn by 48.4 -64% (P <0.05), selenium by 6.4 -25% (P <0.05) as compared with the control group (Table 3).In previous studies (Rossowska and Nakamoto, 1993) antagonistic effects of calcium and zinc in muscle tissue were observed, they were characterized by calcium decrease in homogenate and zinc increase.In our studies with respect to zinc, we observed the opposite effect -an increase of calcium and reduction of zinc.The reduction of selenium causes no decline in the quality of protein, but it is required to maintain an optimal rate of muscle cell differentiation (Ueda et al., 1999).

Differences in zinc concentration were registered in group I and II (p<0.05)
Concentration of copper and cobalt increased 2.5-2.9 times and 1.3-2.2times, respectively, in muscle tissue of experimental groups compared with the control.The level of iodine remained virtually the same in all groups.As we can see, despite the relatively low content of copper in the diet of experimental groups, its significant accumulation in muscular tissue was registered.It can be assumed that this tissue is vulnerable to the action of this element and other tissues of the body (Kumar et al, 2015).Furthermore, it is known that high concentrations of cadmium in the diet can induce oxidative stress by increasing malonic aldehyde, which in its turn causes a reduction of copper in organs and tissues (Erdem et al, 2015).In the performed studies, copper concentration increased in muscular tissue despite the high concentration of cadmium in the experimental diets.
Researches (El-Seweidy et al., 2008) demonstrate that feeding with IF causes zinc reduction in tissues of rats that is connected with antioxidative processes (Esen Gursel and Tekeli.2009).At the same time, iron concentration increases in the same tissues.A similar change was observed in our study.
After IF was added to the basic diet, the following macroelements increased significantly in hair of experimental animals: phosphorus increased 1.9 and 2.0 times, potassium -5.5 and 5.6 times (Table 4).The increase of sodium was the highest; its level exceeded the control values 8.0 and 8.8 times in the I and II experimental groups respectively.
At the same time, decrease of calcium by 6-34% (P <0.05) and magnesium was observed.Previous studies demonstrate that significant increase of potassium, sodium, phosphorus and decrease of calcium and iron were observed in the hair of laboratory animals, regardless of the diet (Alidzhanova et al, 2009).
Consumption of IF, including its mixture with carbonated beverages caused the increase of the following essential microelements in hair: zinc 1.3 and 1.2 times (Ð<0.05),manganese 5.4 and 1.5 times (Ð<0.05),iron 4.4 and 1.9 times (Ð<0.05),cobalt 4 and 2 times, iodine 2 and 1.7 times in comparison with the control group (Table 5).Studying the influence of cadmium on organism of rats (Mou, et al, 2004) it has was also found that cadmium in the diet causes a loss of zinc.In our experiment, the level of cadmium in experimental diets were higher than in the control group, and since, according to some authors (Skalny A.V., Bykov A.T., 2003) the content of chemical elements in the appendages of skin reflects the trace element status of the body in whole and it is an integral indicator of mineral metabolism, increasing zinc in hair is its loss.
Among the experimental groups there were differences in the concentration of manganese, copper, iron (P <0.05).At the same time there was a decrease in copper concentration in the experimental groups by 9 -22% and selenium by 78 -89%.When the effect of fatty acids of different quality as part of the diet of rats was studied (de Castro Barra et al, 2015), a decrease of calcium and selenium in liver tissue was registered.

CONCLUSION
Thus, under the experimental conditions the elemental composition of animal hair changed in accordance with the pool size of the most elements in the muscular tissue.An increase in concentrations of phosphorus, potassium, sodium, iron and cobalt (1.1-8.7 times) was registered together with the increase of calcium, zinc, manganese (1.3 -1.4 times) and decrease of the total pool in muscular tissue.
