DESCRIPTION
True Complex Albion Mineral Process - Potassium cannot be chelated, so Albion Laboratory has chosen to complex potassium. Albion's patents include the complexing of minerals with pure amino acids. Potassium complexed as a glycinate complex was designed by Albion to maximize absorption and provide glycine as "the other half" of the complex. Albion has chosen glycine as a nutritionally functional complexing agent, for its metabolic use in the body including preserving muscle mass, its role in creatine synthesis, and other important enzyme systems.* All Albion's processes are patented, and Albion has invested heavily in the research of its minerals for many years.
Potassium - Potassium is an important mineral and electrolyte, which means that it is able to carry a tiny electrical charge (along with sodium and chloride).* We need potassium to maintain electrolyte balance and function, as well as for muscle contraction, sending nerve impulses, and releasing energy from protein, fat, and carbohydrates during metabolism.* Balance between potassium and sodium in the cells is very important, and people with higher salt intakes are advised to eat more potassium-rich foods to help maintain this balance.* Foods high in potassium include bananas, cantaloupe, grapefruit, oranges, tomatoes, prunes, and potatoes. True Complex Potassium provides a highly bioavailable form of potassium to give the body what it needs for its electrolyte functions.*
RESEARCH SUMMARY
- Electrolyte Functions* - Potassium has been well-researched for its role as an electrolyte in the body. It is important for the sending of nerve impulses, contraction of muscles, and releasing energy from protein, fat, and carbohydrates during metabolism.*
