Chromium is a trace mineral that is significantly reduced in the American diet due to the overprocessing of our foods. One capsule provides 170% of the daily value for the essential element. Chromium is an essential mineral that helps the body maintain normal blood sugar levels. Chromium, in a form called chromium picolinate, has been studied for its potential role in altering body composition. Preliminary research in animals and humans1 suggested that chromium picolinate increases fat loss and promotes a gain in lean muscle tissue. Double-blind research has also reported a reduction in body fat2 and body weight3 in people given 400 mcg of chromium (as chromium picolinate) per day for three months.
