It is easier than ever at the moment to over-indulge in unhealthy foods, but a word of caution – refined sugars really are really harmful to your health
GTF Chromium Helps Regulate Blood Sugar: GTF Chromium is a mineral that helps balance blood glucose levels, and has become a more important supplement with the significant rise in the consumption of refined sugars. GTF stands for Glucose Tolerance Factor, and as well as regulating blood sugar levels it also helps to metabolise carbohydrates, fats and protein as it enhances the action of insulin, the body’s fat storage hormone.
Why Foodstate Chromium? Our GTF Chromium is better absorbed and longer retained than the isolated chromium normally found in supplements. Ours is made from a species of broccoli that has been hydroponically grown in a chromium rich environment. As such it is a wholefood form of the mineral with high bio-availability
