Chelation increases absorption by as much as six-fold because the chelating agents wrap themselves around the mineral ion, much like a protective overcoat. This tends to neutralize the charge, making it much easier for the mineral to pass through the villi and into the bloodstream. The NutriBiotic process for chelating protects the nutrients while increasing absorption potential. First, they use the most soluble forms of minerals, and next, use natural amino acids as chelating agents in a two to one ratio. This produces a two-layer, heavily protected coating that totally shields and neutralizes the magnetic charge.
Increased absorption is accompanied by less irritation to stomach lining and intestines as well.
This chelation process is unrelated to the process whereby EDTA is used to detoxify heavy metals through intravenous administration. NutriBiotic Nutritional Support Products, including multi-mins.
