Chromium is an essential trace mineral that helps the body to make glucose available for energy and to maintain normal blood sugar levels. It is also important for the metabolism of amino acids and fats. People ages 55 and older who exercise regularly are at risk of deficiency and therefore may benefit from taking supplementary chromium.
Chromium is widely believed to be useful in the treatment of diabetes. Chromium also may lower the risk of heart disease. People with higher blood levels of chromium are at lower risk of developing heart disease, and chromium may also lower total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels, while also raising levels of HDL cholesterol.

ReplyDeleteI have used Chromium with great success through the years. It gets the sugar out of the blood, and into the muscle tissue. This will dramtically increase your Energy Levels.
