Aspartates
Some dietary supplements are made by combining minerals and trace elements with the amino acid aspartic acid. They are then known as mineral aspartates, and effectively provide a double supplement of both mineral and amino acid. Potassium and magnesium, and possibly other mineral supplements appear to be more readily absorbed when taken as aspartates.
