A New Organic Source of Trivalent Chromium

What is Chromium 454®?

  • Chromium 454® is created by the reaction of Chromium (Ill) with high-activity, water soluble small molecules from our proprietary GRAS Brewer’s yeast extract.
  • Most other available chromium supplements are synthetic complexes of Chromium bound to various ligands as salts.

Advantages

  • Cr3 content is 10.5%
  • Patent Pending
  • Soluble in H20
  • Stable
  • Affordable

In Vitro Study

  • Chromium 454® stimulated glucose uptake into human skeletal muscle cells in vitro up to 2.98 times.

Diabetes

  • Published data has shown that Chromium 454® reduced blood-glucose levels by 33% in insulin depleted diabetic animals compared to control.
  • Other trivalent chromium salts, at equivalent chromium dosage, showed a 17% and 18% blood- glucose reduction.

Solubility

  • Substances that are water-soluble often are more easily absorbed during transport through the gastric system.
  • Chromium 454® dissolves well in water at room temperature and exhibits a signature purple-violet color in solution.
  • Increased solubility gives Chromium 454® potential formulation advantages.

Benefits

  • Glucose Maintenance
  • Cardiovascular
  • Lipid Maintenance
  • Healthy Aging
  • Body Building
  • Dietary
  • Sports Nutrition
  • Muscle Function
  • Animal Health

Applications

  • Chromium 454® can support diets deficient in chromium.
  • Chromium 454® can be used to promote healthy glucose levels in athletes.
  • Chromium 454® can positively affect the symptoms of Syndrome X. Syndrome X describes the collection of abnormalities which indicate a predisposition to the development of Type II diabetes as well as a number of other chronic diseases.
  • Chromium 454® can aid in weight control programs.

Why Chromium?

  • Chromium can augment glucose metabolism and help maintain healthy blood glucose levels.
  • Chromium is known to play a role in the function of insulin and stimulation of glucose metabolism.
  • Chromium has also been cited in scientific literature as having a role in managing cholesterol and triglycerides, and in promoting heart health.
  • Other studies have shown chromium to be a modulator of lean body mass.
