Chromium Picolinate Supplements - Minerals

Chromium Picolinate

Chromium picolinate is a combination of chromium with picolinic acid, a natural chelator that promotes mineral absorption. Chromium's main function is to help insulin transport glucose from the blood into cells, for energy. It also plays a part in the metabolization of protein, fats and carbohydrates. Chromium picolinate supplements are believed to be beneficial for weight loss, supporting loss of fat instead of lean muscle. Another benefit of chromium picolinate is that it may promote overall cardiovascular health, as it assists with healthy insulin function. While chromium is not normally well-absorbed by the body, chromium picolinate is a highly bioavailable, purified form.
