What does Chromium do?

Chromium is essential for the metabolism of carbohydrates, fat and protein, helping to maintain healthy blood glucose levels. Chromium is a component of the so-called Glucose Tolerance Factor, which together with the hormone insulin, regulates carbohydrate metabolism and glucose balance within the body. Inorganic chromium is not incorporated into the GTF, and not all forms of organic chromium are GTF active. Chromium makes the action of insulin more effective, and helps the body to remove fat 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 chemical forms (e.g. chromium picolinate or chromium polynicotinate).

Each Bio Chromium tablet contains 100 microgram of chromium in the form of organic ChromoPrecise yeast.

Dietary chromium is obtained from wholemeal cereal and grain products (provided soils are not chromium depleted), nuts, seafood and yeast. Highly refined foods (e.g. refined sugar, refined flour used in white bread) contain little of this essential mineral, which is also easily lost during cooking or food processing.

How much should you take?

Pharma Nord recommends 1-2 tablets per day or as directed by a physician.  Tablets are best taken with food, particularly that with a high fibre content.

Suitable for vegetarians.

Recommended Daily Allowance

Chromium is 50 to 200 microgm/day.

Are there adverse effects from taking Bio-Chromium?

Bio-Chromium should not be taken by those with an allergy to yeast.

Pregnant or lactating women and those on medication should consult a doctor before using any product
