Chromium Ionic Mineral - 19 oz. - Liquid
Chromium                is a trace mineral essential for the proper metabolism of cholesterol                and glucose (blood sugar), as well as insulin production and regulation.                              Chromium deficiencies have been shown to aggravate and/or contribute                to, diabetes, hyper/hypo glycemias, high cholesterol, heart disease,                slow metabolism and weight fluctuation. Low intake of chromium is                associated with high blood sugar levels, glucose intolerance, and                adult onset diabetes, which in many cases is corrected or improved                with increased chromium intake.                               Chromium decreases insulin resistance and reduces the body's level                of triglycerides. It also helps to control obesity and can stimulate                weight loss. Proper insulin regulation promotes the production of                serotonin, a neurotransmitter that controls the appetite and curbs                sugar cravings.                              Analysis has shown that unrefined sugars and grains are rich in                chromium and other essential life supporting minerals. When chromium                is removed, (during the refining process into white sugar and flour)                the human body does not have the element it needs to effectively                deal with these two powerful energy sources. The refining of raw                sugars and grains gives them a longer shelf life. It also creates                foods which strip the body of chromium and other essential minerals                necessary for the proper metabolism of these energy foods. Consequently                the body must draw on other stores to process the sugar
