Chromium

Chromium is an essential trace element that the body needs in very small amounts. It occurs naturally in many foods, for example in meat products, fish, legumes and cereals. In this product, chromium is present as chromium(III) picolinate. Trivalent chromium is the form of chromium that is also found in food.

• Chromium contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism.
• Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels.

How to use?

Take one tablet a day with a glass of water. The manufacturer does not specify a particular time of day, so you can take the tablet, for example, in the morning or with a meal – what matters is taking it the same way every day. Do not exceed the recommended daily amount. If you are also using other food supplements that contain chromium, such as multivitamins or mineral complexes, take their chromium content into account as well. Always close the container properly after use.
