Preferably, the metal is Mg, but Ca, Zn, Fe, Cr and Mn are also preferred. The creatine chelates of the present invention are capable of being absorbed in the stomach or intestines via active transport without substantial metabolism of the chelate. In other words, the creatine ligand is protected by the metal from undergoing cyclization in the acidic environment of the stomach and the metal is made more bioavailable due to the presence of the creatine ligand.Field of SearchNitrogen containingNitrogen or halogen containing Nitrogen containing Nitrogen containing (e.g., zinc ethionates, etc.) Nitrogen containing (e.g., ferric chelates of ethylenediaminetetracetic acid, etc.) Selenium or tellurium containing Heavy metal containing DOAI Copper Nickel or cobalt Iron Cadmium or chromium |
