Chromium is an important trace element that works inside the cells and regulates the smooth functioning of insulin, for faster and more efficient metabolism of fat, carbohydrates and proteins. Chromium enhances the action of insulin in the body and possibly promotes its entry into cells, facilitating its transport across cell membranes.
The natural form of chromium is called GTF chromium and is more easily absorbed by the body.
Research studies suggest that chromium can be used as a supplement for weight loss, while it becomes necessary in endurance athletes or dynamic sports, since urinary chromium loss increases after exercise.
In type 2 diabetes, although the pancreas produces enough insulin, muscle cells and other tissues develop resistance to its action. Many research studies indicate the positive effect of chromium supplements in patients with type 2 diabetes, and that chromium supplements actually improve blood sugar control.
NOW's GTF Chromium contains 200 mcg of GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) chromium per tablet, able to help stabilize glucose levels.
