Chromium is an important trace element that works inside the cells and regulates the smooth functioning of insulin, for faster and more efficient metabolism of fat, carbohydrates and proteins.<\/p>\n
Chromium enhances the action of insulin in the body and possibly promotes the entry of insulin into cells, facilitating its transport across cell membranes<\/p>\n
The natural form of chromium is called GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) chromium and is more easily absorbed by the body.<\/p>\n
Research has shown that chromium can also be used as a supplement for weight loss, while it becomes necessary in endurance athletes or dynamic sports, since urinary chromium loss increases after exercise.<\/p>\n
In type 2 diabetes, although the pancreas produces enough insulin, muscle cells and other tissues develop resistance to its action. Many studies have looked at the effect of chromium supplements in patients with type 2 diabetes, and have shown that chromium supplements actually improve blood sugar control.<\/p>\n
