What are amino acid complexes and what makes them better than other sources?
|
Amino acid complexes are organic trace minerals produced by Zinpro Performance Minerals. A single trace mineral metal ion is bound to a single essential amino acid molecule to create a specific amino acid complex. These organic minerals are easily absorbed into the bloodstream and transported to tissues and organs to be utilized. Our products contain amino acid complexes of copper, cobalt, manganese and zinc. |
Are your products Organic?

Our products do contain some organic ingredients but as a whole are not organic. |
Where are the Nutritional Services products manufactured?
|
All of our products are manufactured in our private feed mill located in Hermiston, Oregon. |
Why does it matter that it is a private feed mill?
|
A private feed mill means that only our products are produced from it which gives us the ability to guarantee the integrity of the products. There is no chance for cross contamination or exposure to things like antibiotics or animal bi-products to occur. |
