Chelating is the chemical process by which a mineral (iron, cobalt, copper, zinc, and manganese) is combined with a mixture of amino acids and peptides. The resulting substances are known as chelates. These Amino chelated minerals are thought to be more digestible than nonchelated forms.

These amino Chelated trace minerals are basically formed by the reaction of micro (trace) minerals (Zn, Cu, Mn, Fe, Co) or macro minerals (Mg, Ca) to an amino acid in a 1:1 molar ratio. This process helps protect the metal from being tied up by antagonisms (Fe, Mo, S) during digestion and allows for the metal to remain part of this organic molecule as it is absorbed primarily in the jejunal area of the small intestine.
