Chelation is the result of minerals being chemically bonded to amino acids in a very specific way. Chelation occurs during the digestive process to facilitate the movement of minerals across the intestinal wall so they can be used throughout the body. Amino acids aren't the only "chelating agents" available, but they are ideal for minerals. The body is very efficient at absorbing individual amino acids, and Albion has identified the amino acid glycine as the preferred molecule for the formation of organic chelated minerals. Glycine is easily identified and absorbed across the gut wall, and Albion's glycinate chelates are actually small enough to go straight into the cells themselves!
