Mineral Chelation...
Fast Track to Nutrient Delivery and
Benefit to Your Body
Mineral supplements provided as chelated minerals have dramatically improved absorptions over minerals supplements provided as simple "mineral salts" like zinc chloride. Heres why...
Chelation is literally the protective enclosure of a mineral like zinc or iron within amino or other natural organic acids. This provides tremendous advantage.
"Prepackaging or chelating minerals within natural organic acids protects the enclosed mineral from interfering molecules within the intestinal lumen that can bind the mineral and prevent absorption."
Lets take a closer look at your digestive process to appreciate the importance of chelated minerals...
The food you ingest must first be broken down or dissolved into liquid by stomach hydrochloric acid and numerous enzymes before intestinal absorption can occur. Any nutrients in food remaining in the solid or un-dissolved state simply cannot be absorbed by the intestine and utilized by your body.
