Iron (II) amino acid chelates with reducing agents attached thereto
The present invention is drawn to compositions and methods that include iron (II) amino acid chelate having a reducing agent bonded thereto. The reducing agent can be configured to substantially maintain the iron (II) in its ferrous oxidation state. The iron (II) amino acid chelate can have an amino acid ligand to iron (II) molar ratio from 1:1 to 2:1 and a reducing agent ligand to iron (II) molar ratio from 1:1 to 4:1, with a proviso that the combination of the amino acid ligands and the reducing agent ligands satisfies from 3 to 6 of the coordination sites of the iron (II).
