Life Extension® Only Trace Minerals
While many focus on bulk minerals like calcium and magnesium, essential trace minerals are the unsung heroes of whole-body health. Life Extension’s Only Trace Minerals is a science-based formula designed specifically to fill these crucial nutritional gaps. It provides a carefully selected blend of seven vital trace minerals in highly bioavailable forms to support everything from immune response to glucose metabolism.
Science-Based Formulations, Superior Bioavailability
Over 40 Years of Trust: Life Extension is dedicated to providing premium, science-based supplements. Our formulas are backed by clinical research, and we use only the highest quality ingredients. Our Non-GMO LE certification guarantees our commitment to clean, effective nutrition.
“The form of a mineral dictates its absorption. This formula’s use of chelated and patented forms like OptiZinc® and Crominex® 3+ is critical for efficacy. It ensures the body can actually absorb and utilize these micronutrients, which act as essential cofactors for countless enzymatic reactions, from immune function to blood sugar regulation. It’s a very intelligently designed supplement.”
The Importance of Bioavailable Chelated Minerals
Many mineral supplements are difficult for the body to absorb. Our formula uses chelated mineral forms, where the mineral is bound to an amino acid. This process protects the mineral and enhances its absorption in the digestive tract. We take it a step further by using patented, clinically-studied ingredients to ensure you get the maximum benefit from every capsule.

Targeted Support for Glucose Metabolism and Immune Health
This formula delivers powerful support for two of the body’s most critical systems. It includes Crominex® 3+, a highly stable and active form of chromium, which is essential for helping to maintain already-healthy blood sugar levels. It also features OptiZinc®, a superior bioavailable form of zinc, to support the body’s natural immune defenses.
Essential Cofactors for Bone and Cardiovascular Wellness
Trace minerals are vital for more than just immunity. Our blend includes Boron and Manganese, which are important cofactors for enzymes that help build and maintain strong, healthy bones. Additionally, minerals like copper and molybdenum provide antioxidant support and are essential for overall cardiovascular health.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why would I need “Only” Trace Minerals?
This formula is designed for individuals who may already get sufficient bulk minerals (like calcium and magnesium) from their diet or other supplements, but want to ensure they are not missing the essential, low-dose trace minerals that play a huge role in overall health.
What does “chelated” mean for a mineral?
“Chelated” means the mineral is chemically bonded to an amino acid. This makes the mineral more stable in the digestive system and significantly easier for the body to absorb and utilize compared to standard, inorganic mineral forms.
What are OptiZinc® and Crominex® 3+?
They are patented, high-quality forms of zinc and chromium that have been clinically studied for their superior bioavailability and stability. Using these forms is part of Life Extension’s commitment to providing the most effective ingredients possible.
