Chelate” is a specific term identifying a type of bond between an inorganic mineral atom and an attached molecule structure referred to as a ligand.

3. ALBION is the world leader and innovator in mineral amino acid chelate
nutrition. Since its establishment in 1956 Albion has sought to manufacture highly
bioavailable nutritional mineral forms and to understand their function and prove
their effectiveness through third party research and clinical studies
Albion was founded by Dr. Harvey H. Ashmead in 1956.
The success of ongoing research into the safety and efficacy of minerals chelated to
amino acids convinced the Ashmeads that Albion was ready to move into human
nutrition.
Many companies around the world quickly accepted Albion’s research and
incorporated Albion’s amino acid chelates in their own brands of products

Albion holds itself to the highest industry standards for product quality and manufacturing
processes.

Certified Kosher (selling or serving food prepared in accordance with dietary laws)
 Halal

8. Each of the following systems in the body utilizes minerals. Research shows
that imbalances or deficiencies in mineral nutrition can affect these
systems:
 Immune System: Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), Iron (Fe) and Selenium (Se)
 Energy Production: Magnesium (Mg), Phosphorus (P) and Manganese
(Mn)
 Hormone System:Iron (Fe), Manganese (Mn), Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu),
Magnesium (Mg) and Potassium (K)
 Vitamin Production: Cobalt (Co)
 Blood Production: Copper (Cu) and Iron (Fe)
 Enzyme Systems: Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), Potassium (K), Manganese
(Mn), Magnesium (Mg), Iron (Fe), Calcium (Ca) and Molybdenum (Mo)
 Skeletal System:Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg), Zinc (Zn), Manganese
(Mn), Boron (B) and Phosphorus (P)

10.  Large particles cannot easily pass through the intestinal wall.
Mineral products on the market have molecular weights too large to be absorbed
intact.
 Albion produces chelated minerals with molecular weights small enough to easily
pass through the intestinal wall.
 The Albion chelate is similar to that which the body itself produces by natural
chelation.


11. Why are Albion Chelated Minerals
Better?
Neutrality
 The process of chelation results in the final mineral compound becoming neutral, i.e
containing no electrical charge.
 Electrically charged mineral compounds can interact with other dietary
components such as phytates and other oppositely charged molecules, and from
substances that are not absorbable.
 In addition, charged mineral compounds are reactive and can deactivate other
important nutrient factors, such as vitamin E, ascorbic acid, various B-vitamins, and
certain medications.
