- HIGHLIGHTS
It does not affect product organoleptic characteristics : The stabilized sources doesn't alter the taste, smell, color and texture; It does not alter product stability : In the process of stabilization, the metallic ion is associated to aminoacids, decreasing the reactivity of the metallic ion as catalyst factor of rancidity eactions.; Complying with the specifications of the Food Chemical Codex.; High Bioavailability : The concept of Bioavailablity in nutrition refers to the proportion of a nutrient that is digested/absorbed and metabolized through normal pathways. All our mineral sources have high bioavailability.
