Description
Matrix Nutrients GTF Chromium with Antioxidants (Glucose Tolerance Factor) supplement provides natural chromium in a Food State nutrient Form.
GTF Chromium is an essential mineral found in very low concentration in the body as it is very difficult to absorb. The GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) Chromium form of this important mineral is the more biologically active form helping to regulate blood sugar levels. It is estimated that only 3% of chromium from food is retained in the body.
The GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) Chromium form of this important mineral is the more biologically active form helping to regulate blood sugar levels. GTF Chromium can help to inhibit the ability of refined sugar to cause hypertension.
A good diet and regular exercise has been described as the key to keeping ourselves healthy and reducing the potential of disease however, due to factors of our modern farming methods and the over processing of food this grossly overlooked mineral is being destroyed and we are faced with being chromium deficient.
It has been estimated that approximately 25% – 50% of the world's population is deficient in Chromium. Research has shown that chromium levels decrease with age and that chromium deficiency may be a widespread problem in today's population. The consumption of refined foods, especially simple sugars, increases the problem since these foods are not only low in chromium but also increases the loss of chromium through urine excretion.

Notes: GTF Chromium is necessary for the normal regulation of insulin. The body's Chromium content declines in tandem with the aging process. GTF Chromium has been found to increase the levels of the good cholesterols (HDLs) and reducing the less desirable LDL cholesterol levels. High stress levels have been found to reduce the body's absorption of Chromium.
