Chelated Minerals are minerals that are bound by organic acid or sugar. One of the miraculous therapy is chelation therapy where in mineral solutions are utilized to prevent or reverse cardiovascular problems by binding tightly the arteries and removing calcium as well as other minerals from plaques in the arteries. Because of this property of binding, Chelated Minerals are called organic which are easily absorbed by the body. Chelated minerals also pass easily through the intestinal wall during digestion and into the blood stream.
Chlorophyll is best example of a naturally occurring chelate. Chlorophyll is a chelate type of magnesium. The hemoglobin in red blood cells that carries oxygen to the tissues of the body is a naturally occurring chelate type of iron.
