Description
Chromium is an essential trace mineral that is vital to cardiovascular health and the metabolism. The mineral is a metal element‚ activates healthy insulin production‚ which helps influence the metabolism of protein‚ fat‚ and carbohydrates. It may promote increased muscle strength and allow you to reach fitness goals.
Chromium is not made by the body‚ and must be obtained through diet or supplements. Food sources of chromium include brewer's yeast‚ whole grains‚ cheeses‚ lean meats‚ organ meats‚ oatmeal‚ and many nuts. If you don't often eat many chromium-rich foods‚ you can increase your intake with a dietary supplement.
Chromium Picolinate by Douglas Laboratories is a convenient source of the mineral. Each capsule provides 250 mg of chromium picolinate‚ which is a form more easily absorbed by your body. Furthermore‚ your tissues can store and retain substantially more chromium picolinate than other forms of the mineral. Health benefits of chromium include:
- Support for heart health and strong muscles
- Support for a healthy metabolism
- A boost for your mood
- Support for a healthy reproductive system
Each 100-capsule bottle of Douglas Labs’ Chromium Picolinate 250 mcg should last for about three months at the recommended dosage of one capsule daily.
