Chromium Picolinate Bulk Powder

What is Chromium Picolinate Bulk Powder?

Chromium picolinate bulk powder is made by purifying, separating, and drying the product of complexing pyridine carboxylic acid oxidized by methyl pyridine with trivalent chromium compounds, with the chemical formula of C18H12CrN3O6.

Chromium picolinate is an amino acid metabolite produced in the liver and kidneys of humans and mammals and is found in large quantities in foods such as milk. Chromium picolinate can be absorbed by the human body because it combines with Cr3+ to form chromium picolinate. Chromium picolinate powder is an efficacious ingredient allowed by the Ministry of Health to be added to healthy foods. However, Chromium Picolinate should not be consumed in excess, as excessive consumption may result in loss of appetite, depression, fatigue, sleep disorders, etc., and in serious cases, it may also affect the transmission of neurotransmitters, thus damaging the human nervous system.

Benefits for Diabetics

Clinical studies have shown that chromium supplementation is effective in treating different types of diabetes (including type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes and steroid-induced diabetes). The use of organic chromium is more effective than inorganic chromium, and common types of organic chromium include chromium picolinate, chromium nicotinate, and chromium-rich yeast. Chromium acts as the active ingredient of GTF in conjunction with insulin and plays an important role in the metabolism of sugars, fats, proteins and nucleic acids.

The therapeutic effects of chromium picolinate on diabetes have been widely recognized and supplementation with chromium picolinate has become an appropriate nutritional intervention for diabetic patients. It lowers total cholesterol and increases density lipoprotein (HDL) concentrations. Clinical studies have shown that 200 micrograms of chromium per day can lower total blood cholesterol concentrations. When chromium is taken with OPC (grape seed extract), it can increase the percentage of good cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, or HDL) in addition to lowering total cholesterol.

Enhancement of Insulin Activity

Active chromium can enhance insulin activity, increase the number of insulin receptors, and enhance insulin receptor phosphorylation. Inadequate levels of active chromium in the body result in reduced insulin bioefficacy. Chromium picolinate powder provides better-acting organic chromium. It can smoothly pass through the cell membrane and act directly on the tissue cells to enhance insulin activity and improve glucose metabolism of the human body, which plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of diabetes mellitus.

Blood Sugar Control

Chromium picolinate plays an important role in blood sugar control. Studies have shown that chromium picolinate increases the sensitivity of body tissues to insulin and improves the effect of insulin. Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood glucose, prompting glucose to enter cells and reducing blood glucose levels. Chromium picolinate powder increases the number and activity of insulin receptors, enhances the effects of insulin, and also improves the utilization of glucose in the body. Therefore, chromium picolinate is very beneficial for people with diabetes and unstable blood sugar.

Sports Enhancement

Chromium picolinate is used as a sports enhancement supplement by some athletes and fitness enthusiasts. Studies have found that chromium picolinate can increase metabolic rate during exercise, helping to burn fat and increase muscle mass. Chromium increases the rate of oxidation of fats and sugars, which reduces fat synthesis and increases the body's energy expenditure. In addition, chromium picolinate increases the uptake of glucose by the muscles, providing more energy and enhancing exercise capacity and endurance. Therefore, Chromium Picolinate Powder is effective in increasing muscle mass and improving athletic performance.

Lowering Cholesterol

The reason for high cholesterol is the presence of large amounts of fat in the blood. It also builds up on the walls of the arteries and causes diseases such as heart attack and stroke. With the use of chromium picolinate, it is possible to lower cholesterol levels, as well as the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. Moreover, chromium picolinate is more easily absorbed by the body to achieve cholesterol regulation.

Anti-aging

Chromium picolinate also has anti-aging properties. It has been found that chromium picolinate slows down the aging and senescence process of cells by reducing DNA damage, protein oxidation, and apoptosis. Chromium inhibits the production and scavenging of free radicals, reducing damage from oxidative stress. In addition, chromium picolinate increases the activity of antioxidant enzymes and improves the antioxidant capacity of cells. Therefore, chromium picolinate has a positive effect on delaying aging, improving skin quality, and enhancing immune function.

Applications:

For Health Products:

Chromium picolinate can reduce sugar and weight loss, strengthen muscles and the body, and enhance immunity. In 2003, the Ministry of Health determined the method for determining the content of chromium picolinate in health food. The standard specifies that chromium picolinate can be added to healthy food such as tablets or capsules as an efficacy ingredient, which has an important auxiliary therapeutic effect on diabetic patients. As a nutritional supplement, the minimum intake of chromium picolinate per person per day is 15 μg and the maximum intake is 150 μg in the Regulations for Declaration and Evaluation of Nutrient Supplements.

Nutrition 21 (USA) has conducted applied research on chromium picolinate and found that as an insulin cofactor supplement, chromium picolinate can be used to treat diseases associated with insulin resistance.

Chromium picolinate powder can be added to health food products and it is recognized as an ideal chromium source supplement for pharmaceutical and health food applications.
