Pharmacological Properties: Chromium is a vitally important microelement for the human body. It ensures the activation of the enzymatic system involved in carbohydrate and fat metabolism. Chromium normalizes blood glucose (reduces blood glucose levels by 20%), triglyceride, and cholesterol levels, enhances insulin action (stimulates insulin receptors and ensures glucose utilization). This microelement participates in the breakdown of fatty acids, and also helps reduce appetite, particularly reducing the craving for sweets. Chromium ensures the absorption of atherosclerotic plaques, reduces cholesterol concentration on the aortic walls, and protects myocardial proteins from the damaging effects of free radicals. In addition to the main properties listed above, chromium participates in the hematopoiesis process. It strengthens muscle tone and ensures muscle tissue growth. This microelement also promotes growth and helps the body overcome stress.
