Chromium Picolinate promotes sugar and carbohydrate metabolism, lowering blood sugar, triglyceride levels and some types of high cholesterol. Chromium Picolinate may also help reduce body fat and build lean muscle mass. This trace mineral plays a major role in the sensitivity of cells to insulin. Insulin helps cells absorb and use glucose effectively. Efficient use of glucose helps convert food to energy rather than stored fat.
Chromium Picolinate is a trace mineral that shows promise for
help in controlling Type 2 diabetes, lowering blood sugar, triglyceride levels,
and some types of high cholesterol. Studies are being conducted on the ability
of
Chromium Picolinate to help reduce body fat and build lean
muscle mass.
Main Functions
Chromium Picolinate promotes sugar and carbohydrate metabolism.
Chromium Picolinate is a necessary factor in carbohydrate and sugar metabolism.
The trace mineral chromium plays a major role in the sensitivity of cells to insulin. Insulin helps cells absorb and use glucose effectively.
Considerable evidence indicates that chromium functions as a co-factor in all
insulin-regulating activities. Supplementing the diet with chromium has been
shown to significantly improve insulin action; decrease fasting glucose and
triglyceride levels; and increase the HDL-cholesterol level by enhancing insulin
sensitivity.
It should be noted that exceeding the recommended dosage will not enhance beneficial
effects and could lead to undesired results, including weight gain, rather than
weight loss.
Be sure to consult your physician if you have kidney or liver conditions, diabetes
or suffer from anxiety or depression.
Chromium Picolinate is not a magic bullet for weight loss, however when used
as directed with an exercise program and proper diet, it can help your body
process carbohydrates and sugars more efficiently, leading to a more rapid weight
loss.
