Bio-availability and Chelated

Bio availability is a term that means that the best form of supplement is the one that is available for our body to absorb for its immediate use or for future storage for optimum health. A label that says a supplement has the following does not really mean you are getting what you are paying for in the right amounts.


Chelated Minerals:

What does this term mean. Its a greek word meaning " Claw". In other words it means that the mineral is able to claw or grab onto a co factor such as an amino protein to make itself better available to be absorbed into our cells.

There are good and bad chelated mineral. Some of the good chelated are Picolinates, Gluconates, lactates and citrates, and amino acid chelated minerals. these are more stable in our bodies.

Bad chelated minerals are those such as oxides, sulphites and chlorides.

When you buy a calcium supplement look to see if these are present and select the one with teh good chelated minerals in them.

A safe a trusted supplement is the Calcium manaufactured by Leading US Nutritional Company and the only way you may buy them are online. The supplements were by rated by Yahoo7 TodayTonight Channel 7 on the 9th August as the best in Australia.
