Description

         Chromium supplements are available in different forms: picolinate, nicotinate or chloride. Bio-Chromium uses picolinate, known for its superior absorption and effectiveness.

Chromium plays a role in insulin sensitivity, which is crucial for blood sugar control. It is therefore important in the maintenance of not only glucose and carbohydrate metabolism, but also in the utilization of fat and protein in the body. Researchers have found that appetite and food cravings are reduced with Chromium Picolinate, and scientific studies also indicate that it may play a role in cardiovascular health.

Up to 1,000 micrograms (mcg) is considered safe for pre-diabetics and those with diabetes type 2, but a healthy person would do well taking at least 200 mcg for proper blood sugar regulation and metabolic support.
