What is chromium picolinate?

Chromium picolinate, an organic trivalent chromium, is of great significance to the biological activity of Glucose Tolerance Factor (GTF). It is widely used as a nutritional additive in food and livestock production. Studies have found that chromium picolinate can lower blood glucose and lipid levels as well as ease the symptoms related to glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism disorders. Chromium picolinate has overtaken calcium supplements to become the second-largest dietary supplement in human nutritional health products. In the production of livestock and poultry, supplementing chromium picolinate can increase pig growth and lean meat yield, boost livestock and poultry immunity, strengthen the body’s anti-stress ability, and improve the fertility of female animals.

Chromium picolinate functions:

● Treat diabetes

Chromium picolinate can promote the metabolization of fat and carbohydrates in the body and has some efficacy in diabetes. Typically, people with diabetes cannot secrete insulin normally. Using chromium picolinate can help with glucose intolerance. At the same time, it can improve and enhance insulin resistance. So chromium picolinate can enhance insulin activity and significantly reduce the amount of sugar retained in the blood.

● Lower cholesterol

High cholesterol is caused by the presence of large amounts of fat in the blood, which can build up in the walls of the arteries and cause diseases such as heart disease and stroke. However, with chromium picolinate, cholesterol levels can be lowered. It also lowers blood cholesterol & triglyceride levels and is more easily absorbed by the body to regulate cholesterol.

● Protect the heart

According to research, chromium picolinate can maintain heart health. Elevated blood pressure and abnormal vascular function can lead to heart abnormalities. However, chromium picolinate can protect the heart without affecting blood pressure. It can also promote blood vessels, improve heart muscle function, and restore blood flow velocity.

● Benefits for livestock production

Existing experimental research shows that adding chromium picolinate can show good application effects on livestock and poultry. It can promote animal growth, improve the quality of animal products, especially the quality of the ketone body, improve the reproductive performance of female animals, increase the number of litters, improve the function of the endocrine system, and enhance the immunity and stress resistance of the organism.

Chromium picolinate applications：

● As a pharmaceutical and health food additive, the main functions of chromium picolinate are hypoglycemia and weight loss, muscle building, and immunity enhancement.
● As a feed additive, chromium picolinate has obvious promoting effects on relieving environmental stress, improving lean meat rate, and enhancing resistance.
