If we have metals like iron and zinc in our blood, why doesn't that set off metal detectors?

Is it too small an amount of metal? Or is it because it's tiny particles of it instead of a big chunk?

It comes in too small of traces to be picked up by a metal detector.

@SW-User Good thing, that, or else we'd beep every time we went to the airport.
