Formulation Notes

Chromium is an essential trace mineral that plays an important role in helping insulin regulate blood glucose. Along with a nutritious diet, chromium may help maintain healthy blood sugar levels already within a normal range. In addition, chromium is involved in the release of energy from cells and is required for proper receptor functioning necessary for nutrient metabolism. This formulation contains trivalent, biologically active chromium.
