Produktinformation

• Name: Chromium picolinate
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Chromium picolinate is a compound that contains chromium and picolinic acid. It has been shown to increase the levels of growth factor-β1 in tissue culture studies. Chromium picolinate may have genotoxic effects, but these have not been studied in humans. Chromium picolinate has been used as a nutritional supplement for weight loss and body mass index (BMI) management. The toxicity of this drug is low, with no significant side effects reported at doses below 1,000 mcg per day. Chromium picolinate is absorbed well by the body and excreted quickly via the urine. The analytical method for chromium picolinate is stable complexes with picolinic acid. There are no established physiological levels for chromium picolinate in human serum or urine, so any benefits are assumed to be due to its ability to bind copper ions and prevent copper deficiency.
