Percentage in Body figures

The 'Percentage in Body' figures are misleading. Assuming that the first eleven (11) figures are correct (that is, from Oxygen to Magnesium), the figure for trace elements should not read 'less than 1.0', but rather 'around 0.1' (or 'less than 0.2'). Adding all previous percentages amounts to 99.9%, so of course trace elements will be 'less than 1%', the problem is that this is very misleading.Oulipal (talk) 14:56, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
