Vitality Trace Minerals + Chlorella, Chelated Zinc Copper Selenium Chromium and Boron with Organic Chlorella, One Capsule Daily, 30-90 Vegetable Capsules

Vitality Trace Minerals + Chlorella Details

Seven trace minerals in chelated and citrate forms, with organic chlorella. One capsule daily.

The mineral forms are what distinguish this from a cheap multimineral. Manganese is bisglycinate, chromium and molybdenum are amino acid chelates, zinc and copper are citrates, and selenium is selenomethionine. Chelated and organic-acid forms are generally better absorbed and gentler on the stomach than the oxides and sulphates that fill budget products.

Zinc and copper appearing together at 5mg and 1mg is deliberate. The two compete for absorption, and zinc supplementation on its own over time can drive copper deficiency. A roughly 5:1 ratio is the standard way of avoiding that, and it is one of the more common design failures in single-mineral products.

Selenium at 50mcg as selenomethionine is the form found in food. Worth knowing that selenium has an unusually narrow window between adequate and excessive — the tolerable upper limit for adults is 400mcg daily from all sources, so check what else you are taking.

Organic chlorella rounds out the formula as a whole-food source. Available in 30 and 90 capsules.

Vitality Products is a Canadian supplement company, and its formulas lean toward chelated and bisglycinate mineral forms rather than cheaper oxides and sulphates.

Who Vitality Trace Minerals + Chlorella Is For

This suits anyone whose diet is likely light on trace minerals, which is common where food comes from depleted soils, and anyone wanting to cover the minor minerals without stacking five separate bottles. The one-capsule dose makes it easy to run alongside a magnesium or vitamin D.

It is not a substitute for a full multivitamin — there are no B vitamins, no vitamin D and no calcium or magnesium here. Check your total daily intake before adding it to a multivitamin that already contains zinc, copper or selenium; selenium in particular has a narrow safety window. Consult a practitioner before use if pregnant, breastfeeding or on medication.
