Why we pay more for this form: Copper sulfate (the inorganic form) can upset stomachs, and copper and zinc can compete for absorption.²⁷ Our chelated form is wrapped in amino acids. Think of it like giving copper a little protective jacket for the mineral traffic jam. That's why we chose a chelated form for a meal with lots of other nutrients.²⁷
