Supports healthy blood sugar levels. Contains the body's natural form of chromium. Supports insulin action. Helps regulate blood sugar and lipoprotein balance. Provides a superior form and effective dose of chromium picolinate. Chromium is an essential trace mineral needed by the body for several vital biological functions, the most well-known of which is blood sugar management. It is based on its ability to unlock the "cell door" to the hormone insulin, allowing it to enter cells. In addition to supporting insulin action, documented effects of chromium include reducing sugar cravings, facilitating weight loss, and improving glucose metabolism. These benefits of chromium are attributed to its ability to help stabilize blood sugar levels. Since insulin resistance and high blood sugar appear to be risk factors for heart disease and metabolic syndrome, chromium supplementation may also help reduce the risk of developing these diseases. Chromium picolinate is most commonly used for weight loss, but it has several other benefits related to maintaining normal blood sugar levels. AOR chromium is a specific form of chromium bound to picolinic acid and recognized as the natural form found in all living things.

AOR's formula provides an effective dose of this important nutrient to maintain blood sugar control.
