CHROMIUM POLYNICOTINATE


Functions:

  • Promotes normal insulin function
  • Promotes healthy blood sugar levels
  • Promotes healthy blood lipid (cholesterol) levels
  • Promotes cardiovascular health
  • Promotes lean body mass
  • Promotes healthy weight control.


Chromium helps insulin metabolize fat, turn protein into muscle and convert sugar into energy. Chromium-activated insulin increases the amount of blood sugar available for energy production nearly twenty-fold. ChromeMate® is a unique, patented form of biologically active niacin-bound chromium called chromium nicotinate or polynicotinate that dramatically increases the effectiveness of chromium. Researchers have shown that ChromeMate® with its unique, patented oxygen-coordinated niacin-bound chromium complex is the safest and most potent form of chromium available as a dietary supplement.
Chromium is at the heart of a biologically active complex called Glucose Tolerance Factor, or "GTF", which is responsible for potentiating (increasing) the action of insulin in the body. Insulin is a vital hormone responsible for transporting glucose inside cells and maintaining proper blood sugar and blood lipid (cholesterol) levels in the body.
