The Solgar Chromium Picolinate is a dietary supplement with chromium in chelated form (bound with picolinic acid). The package contains 90 capsules.
It is aimed at adults who want to cover their chromium intake through a dietary supplement, as part of a balanced diet.
Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood sugar levels and the normal metabolism of macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats, proteins). These are the two approved health claims for chromium under Regulation (EC) 1924/2006, unlike many other metals and trace elements that have none.
The chelated (picolinic) form of chromium is generally considered well absorbed, as it utilizes amino acid absorption pathways in the intestine, different from the inorganic forms of metals.
It suits adults who want to cover their chromium intake, as part of a balanced diet. The product is not intended for the prevention, treatment or cure of diabetes or any other diagnosed condition, and does not replace a medical diagnosis or treatment. Anyone with diagnosed diabetes or sugar regulation problems should consult a doctor, as chromium may interact with diabetes medications.
Main ingredient per capsule: chromium (as picolinic salt) 200mcg. The complete list of ingredients is not listed on the current product page, we refer to the packaging for the full label.
Chromium is found in foods such as whole grain cereals, broccoli, potatoes and meat, however in small amounts. A supplement can act as a complement when dietary intake is not sufficient.
