Now Foods Tri-Chromium is a dietary supplement which contains three forms of chromium (picolinate, Chelavite® and ChromeMate®) with the addition of cinnamon.

It aims at regulation in blood glucose levels, improvement in insulin sensitivity and decrease in the risk of insulin resistance and diabetes.

Chromium ‒ a trace chemical element which is necessary for the proper functioning of the human body system. It plays an important role in the regulation of blood sugar and insulin sensitivity. It is often used to reduce the appetite for sweets. It participates in the metabolism of proteins, lipids and cholesterol. It also affects the actions of many enzymes, including trypsin.

Cinnamon ‒ is a popular spice of root aroma, known for its ability to regulate blood sugar and improve the sensitivity of cells to insulin.

The combination of these two components can support each other action in the fight against blood sugar disorders and improper functions of insulin.

The formula combining three different chromium forms
The manufacturer of the supplement took care to have maximum effectiveness. The use of various forms can increase the absorption, and thus the chance of getting the desired effects of supplementation.

Among the forms used, we will find the classic chromium picolinate and two patented forms. The first one is Chromium Chelavite®, or amino acid chelate, and the second one ‒ ChromeMate®, which is chrome in the form of polynicotinate.

The influence on insulin sensitivity
The influence of this mineral on the regulation of the cell sensitivity to insulin is closely connected with the activity of the chromoduline. It is a protein that regulates insulin signaling. Its deficiency results in a significant reduction in the hormone ability to function properly.

Influence on the mood
What is interesting, the studies demonstrate an influence of chromium on the reduction in depressive symptoms. Since chromium is often used for slimming, which can cause a depressive mood due to the limited calorie intake, the antidepressant properties seem to be particularly beneficial.

Influence on the appetite
Numerous studies in rats indicate the influence of chromium on the reduction in appetite. It is speculated that this effect may results from the influence of chromium on the concentration of neurotransmitters affecting hunger.

The researchers have also observed a subtle reduction in overeating in people with eating disorders. The supplementation should be particularly effective in the case of people complaining about unbridled appetite and increased craving for sweets.

Reduction in PCOS symptoms
Next to the main function, which is the impact on the sugar balance, the researchers have also observed some other interesting chromium properties. One of them is the acne reduction in women suffering from polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

In the case of this disease, we can also observe a reduction in the symptoms of hirsutism, which is an excessive hairiness, as a consequence of the increase in androgenic hormone level in bloodstream.

According to the previously cited information, chromium can also cause an improvement in the condition of women with PCOS, as the disease is strongly associated with the excessive insulin concentrations and glycemic disorders.

Now Foods Tri-Chromium is recommended especially for people with chromium deficiency, complaining about excessive craving for sweets and for those who suffer from impaired glucose and insulin sensitivity.
