Albion® Minerals, The Originals

Balchem’s chelated magnesium bisglycinate by Albion® Minerals is also set to take center stage at the show.

In light of the recent 31.6% rise in sales of magnesium-containing supplements and 106.8% boost for magnesium-enriched beverages in 2024, ¹ this is a particularly exciting area of innovation in today’s nutraceuticals arena. Renowned for its exceptional effectiveness and tolerability, Albion® Minerals’ magnesium bisglycinate addresses key consumer health concerns – including muscle relaxation, ² sleep, ³ and heart health, ⁴ - and can be used in a wide range of on-trend, convenient applications such as fortified drinks, powders and gummies. Balchem’s experts will also be on hand to discuss TRAACs (The Real Amino Acid Chelate System), a hallmark of quality in the chelated minerals market for human nutrition, ensuring fully reacted, truly chelated minerals, with all the associated benefits.
