<p>A cereal grain kernel coated with a metal amino acid chelate, a method for mineral or metal fortification of cereal grain kernels and a coating composition is disclosed. Unlike other metal or mineral fortificants, cereal grain kernels may be coated with iron, calcium, zinc and/or other metals in the form of an amino acid chelate without pulverizing individual kernels. Further, the coated kernels are stable, palatable and contain highly bioavailable metals.</p> |
