The Spectrum Support Minerals Part B are chemically bound to amino acids to enhance cellular energy production. These minerals are extremely well absorbed, utilized, and tolerated, more so than minerals bound to sulfate, oxide, carbonate, or chloride. All of the mineral formulas do not contain iron or copper, as many individuals on the spectrum have issues with metals. Supplementation of copper and iron should be based on individual need, working with a medical practitioner. The Spectrum Support Minerals are made without any added flavors; they are not available in Lemon Lime. The 32-ounce bottle provides over a two month supply for a 25 pound child, a one month supply for a 50 pound child, or a 23-day supply for a 100 pound child.
