Chromium helps to avoid the 'highs and lows' of hunger patterns which can often lead to cravings and snacking between meals.

What does Chromium do?
Chromium is essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates, fat and protein, helping to maintain healthy blood glucose levels. It is an important component of the chromodulin molecule (formerly glucose tolerance factor), which together with insulin, regulates carbohydrate metabolism and blood glucose balance. Chromium makes the action of insulin more effective and helps the body to remove glucose from the bloodstream.
What is the best form of Chromium to take?
Chromium supplements are available in both organic and inorganic forms; although inorganic forms of chromium are cheaper, the body absorbs organic forms of chromium much more efficiently. Chromium supplements are available in several forms (e.g. chromium picolinate, chromium polynicotinate and chromium chloride).
Bio-Chromium
Our Chromium tablets each contain 100 micrograms of chromium in the form of an organic cellular bound chromium yeast, ChromoPrecise. ChromoPrecise does not contain live yeast cells, but a chromium containing protein-rich powder made from yeast cells. Dietary chromium is obtained from wholemeal cereal and grain products (provided soils are not chromium depleted), nuts, seafood and yeast. Little chromium is contained from highly refined foods (e.g. refined sugar, refined flour used in white bread) which are easily lost during cooking or food processing.
