False.

Minerals are inorganic elements or compounds that are essential for various biological functions. They are needed in small amounts by the body to maintain health. Unlike organic molecules, which contain carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds, minerals do not contain carbon-hydrogen bonds and are not considered organic.
