Swanson Albion® Molybdenum is classified as a trace mineral because the body only uses it in small amounts, but Molybdenum plays a major role in maintaining good health as a vital component of enzymes involved in metabolism and waste excretion. Unfortunately, the body™s ability to absorb this vital mineral declines with age, which is why Swanson Albion Chelated Molybdenum features TRAACS® molybdenum glycinate chelate, a form that is readily taken up by the body for optimal effectiveness.

Albion Molybdenum supplies molybdenum as a glycinate chelate. Molybdenum is a trace mineral that your body uses in several enzymes involved in sulfur amino acid metabolism and the breakdown of certain naturally occurring compounds in food.
Because only small amounts are needed, molybdenum is not usually taken for a dramatic short-term effect. Albion Molybdenum is more about filling a specific trace mineral gap, and the chelated form is included for good mineral delivery.

What is the benefit of Albion Molybdenum being a glycinate chelate?
That form is used to provide the mineral in a form designed for reliable absorption and tolerance.
