The Calcium and Magnesium in this product are reacted with a special rice protein concentrate containing a higher level of amino acids than ordinary rice, creating a more complete amino acid chelate. This advanced chelation process is intended to improve mineral bioavailability. The addition of glutamic acid is intended to enhance promotion of a healthy stomach pH. A balanced stomach pH can promote mineral absorption for individuals with low stomach acid.

Krebs Cycle Chelates provides a balanced combination of essential and trace minerals to enhance cellular energy and support healthy cardiovascular function. With the exception of iodine, each of the minerals in Krebs Cycle Chelates is chelated (bound) to the five Krebs cycle intermediates: citrate, fumarate, malate, succinate, and alpha ketoglutarate. Minerals chelated to these organic acids are more readily absorbed and utilized by the body.
