Natural form Chromium Polynicotinate.

Studies show that this dietary supplement may provide benefits including weight loss, lowered serum cholesterol and glucose, burned fat, and build muscle.
Chromium is an essential trace mineral that helps the body maintain normal blood sugar levels and may help those with Turners syndrome - a disease linked with glucose intolerance.
Chromium is needed by the body to regulate blood sugar levels. In order for it to be utilised, however Chromium needs to be combined with Vitamin B3 and three amino acids, to form the compound GTF (glucose tolerance factor).
Chromium Polynicotinate (not the synthetic picolinate) is Chromium already bound to Vitamin B3 (nicotinic acid), providing two major components of the glucose tolerance factor. Glucose tolerance factor regulates blood sugar and insulin sensitivity. It is also involved in the maintenance of healthy cholesterol levels.
Low nutritional diets generally always result in the lack of proper intake of the minerals we all needs to maintain a healthy lifestyle. The high incidence of adult-onset diabetes suggests to some doctors that many people should be supplementing with small amounts of chromium in an effort for prevention.
Chromium supplements may also help weight loss, it does not burn fat but it may help increase lean body mass which in turn burns fat. The larger the muscle mass, the larger the amount of fat than can potentially be burned by the muscles. Chromium may also have an effect on lowering cholesterol and triglyceride levels in a non-insulin dependant diabetic as well as non-diabetics.
