Iron(II) glycinate refers to an iron complex of glycinate. Such species are transition metal amino acid complexes. Some compositions are used as dietary supplements and in food fortification in the place of other sources of iron, often under the trademark Ferrochel. It is sometimes sold as a hydrochloride salt.
