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.
