Chromium helps to carry proteins to where they are needed in the body, as well as metabolizing amino acids from those proteins for growth and life. It metabolizes glucose for energy, thereby helping regulate energy production as well as growth and repair in the body. The liver requires Chromium to be present as it combines other nutrients to create fatty acids.*^
Chromium supports insulin function and glucose utilization. It, along with
Zinc,
Vanadium and
Magnesium, work to maintain insulin and blood sugar levels that are already within the normal range. It may help with daily anxiety and occasional fatigue.*^
Chromium supports*^:
- Exercise. Chromium supports the liver in making fatty acids from stored glucose for energy that is used during exercise.
- Insulin levels within normal range.
- Blood Sugar levels within normal range.
- Healthy heart and vascular system.*^
Magnesium is important for muscle contraction and relaxation. Exercise increases the amount of it that is stored in the bone, with a consequent increase of bone strength. Nerve communication depends on it. Magnesium is involved in blood pressure regulation and restful sleep. Body tissue purification and impurity purging is another activity of Magnesium. It is a door-man for each cell in your body, allowing nutrients into each cell and also sending out waste materials. Magnesium activates over 300 enzyme reactions in the body! It is lost in sweat and is easily depleted by its many activities. Magnesium must be replaced and maintained consistently.*^
Nerves, the bowels, bones, ligaments and cells store it. Absorption rates for it may decline as the body ages. Selenium is necessary for its absorption in the intestines while Boron may reduce the rate of its excretion from the body.*^
Magnesium supports:
- Bone strength
- Good muscle contraction and relaxation.
- Good nerves.
- Blood pressure regulation.
- Restful sleep.
- Healthy cell metabolism.*^
Potassium is vital for the elimination of waste products in the body. It neutralizes acids in the blood stream and joints. It’s involvement in healthy nerve function, healthy cardiovascular function, healthy water balance, healthy muscle strength and energy and general recuperative powers makes it important for sports recovery.*^
Potassium supports:
- Healthy blood.
- Healthy joints.
- Healthy nerves.
- Healthy water balance
- Healthy muscle strength
- Healthy activity recovery.
- Healthy cardiovascular function.*^
Vanadium supports the circulatory system, including the heart. It supports cholesterol and blood sugar levels that are already within their normal ranges. It also promotes red blood cell growth and assists in iron metabolism. It supports the healthy mineralization of both teeth and bone.*^
Vanadium supports:
- Healthy blood.
- Healthy blood sugar levels.
- Healthy cardiovascular system*^.
Zinc is a daily must-have! And especially in sports recovery*.^
Zinc aids over 200 activities that occur in your body either directly or indirectly. Proper assimilation of vitamins and other nutrients and maintenance of body tissues and proteins are all under its influence. Other activities include: sexual function, natural detoxification, wound healing, proper sense of taste and smell, and synthesis of DNA. It is an anti-oxidant. It influences blood sugar levels. Furthermore, it is a key part of 100 or so enzymes.*^
Moisture in the eyes, lungs, nose, urine, and saliva and all other body fluids contain Zinc. Therefore it is in all the fluids as they move through the body. Because it is in all the fluids in the body, it is quickly and easily available for any of its many functions.
Don’t be caught without it!*^
Zinc supports:
- Vitamin and other nutrient assimilation
- Healthy tissue and protein maintenance.
- Healthy detoxification.
- Healing
- Healthy DNA.*^
*This is generic information about these elements.
