According to Jeppsen et al, in their presentation at the 6th International Symposium on Chelating Agents in Pharmacology, Toxicology and Therapeutics, Albion amino acid chelates are less irritating than other forms of inorganic mineral supplements.* These ultra-trace minerals, as well as some of the others, could have very narrow margins between what are useful and what are toxic doses. Lithium doses somewhat higher than those in this formula are used by some practitioners to support healthy brain function.
The amount of glutamate between brain cells at a stable, healthy level. Lithium is thought to help regulate the neurotransmitter glutamate by keeping It also appears to have positive effects on insulin and glucose metabolism.
Animal research suggests vanadium has important interactions with magnesium. As yet, neither a requirement for ultra-trace elements, nor deficiency symptoms have been demonstrated in humans. Lithium and vanadium are known as ultra-trace elements. Malic acid is also thought to increase energy levels in healthy humans.* Because of malic acid’s role in energy production, NADH (which yields three ATPs) is formed and may therefore support muscle energy production. Swedish researchers noted that a reduced content of high-energy phosphates in the muscles of some patients could be contributing to the muscle energy deficits experienced by these patients. A double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over pilot study using 400 mgs of malic acid three times a day (approximately the same amount as in Minerals Plus) along with magnesium supported feelings of wellness in subjects’ joints, muscles, tendons, and other soft tissues. Malic acid participates in the energy production cycle.

This means that 100% of the mineral/amino acid compound has nutrient value.*Īnother reason why Minerals Plus stands apart from other mineral formulas on the market is because it contains malic acid, lithium, and Unlike the ligand picolinicĪcid, which gets excreted unchanged in the urine, the amino acid glycine has nutritional value. The minerals in Minerals Plus differ from those in many formulas in that they are bound to the ligand, glycine. Three very important features of the chelated minerals in Minerals Plus assist in absorption: (1) theĪbsence of an electrical charge, which renders them less likely to interact with other dietary substances such as phytates, other vitaminsĪnd minerals, or medications (2) small molecular weights that facilitate transport across the intestinal mucosa and (3) the chelates remain intact and stable throughout the ranges of pH in the digestive tract.* This combination appears to improve absorption by enhancing the minerals’ transport across the intestinal wall. Many of the minerals in Minerals Plus are bound to dipeptides. Some other products on the market, which are purported to be chelates, are merely mixtures of proteins and minerals that lose stability during digestionĪnd consequently have lower bioavailability.* The result, it has been demonstrated, is that the bioavailability of Albion’s chelates is superior. Albion Laboratories uses patented processes To increase bioavailability of supplementary minerals, special processing is needed to create a stable bond between the minerals and the amino acids.
The body transports minerals across the intestinal wall by bonding (or chelating) them to amino acids. Furthermore, balance-or the ratio of one mineral to another-is key to mineral utilization.*īioavailability is perhaps the most important consideration when selecting a formula containing minerals. Minerals Plus, NutriMedical’s highly absorbable and balanced multi-mineral formula, is composed exclusively of Albion®’s patented and fully reacted mineral amino acid chelates, malates, and mineralĪ sufficient intake of minerals is important for the production of energy the synthesis of blood, bone, and hormones the immune system enzyme function and reproduction.
