Chromium Picolinate

200mcg

Chromium picolinate aids in the management of blood glucose levels.

This biologically active form of the trace element chromium is chemically bound to picolinic acid.

Picolinic acid is naturally produced by the body to enhance the assimilation of trace minerals at the cellular level. Chromium in its fully reacted picolinate form eliminates a metabolic step, thereby improving absorption rates. Research indicates that supplementing with chromium picolinate can enhance metabolism and reduce glucose levels. Chromium also improves insulin's ability to lower serum glucose levels, making it beneficial for individuals with common risk factors for metabolic syndrome—a collection of health issues that elevate the mortality rate in North Americans.

Athletes engaged in extensive training may also find supplementation advisable, as excessive perspiration can lead to chromium deficiency.
