Product classification of chromium rich yeast

1.Inorganic chromium products
There are many types of products, mainly produced by mixing chromium chloride with milk powder or other trace elements such as iodine, zinc, selenium, magnesium, etc. These products not only bring convenience to people's chromium supplementation, but also have many insurmountable problems:
(1) Low absorption rate, generally below 10%;
(2) It has no biological activity and needs to be converted into GTF chromium with biological activity in order to regulate metabolism. But the body of patients with diabetes and coronary heart disease basically does not have this transformation ability;
(3) The harmful effects of inorganic chromium have been found in animal experiments. Rats fed with inorganic chromium have a large amount of fat accumulation on the abdominal omentum and inorganic chromium accumulation in the basal cells of the kidneys. During dialysis, renal failure patients taking inorganic chromium found that the concentration of inorganic chromium in their blood was much higher than that of those who did not take inorganic chromium.
2.Organic chromium products
There are three forms of organic chromium in the product: pyridine chromium carboxylic acid, niacin chromium, and yeast chromium.
⑴ Chromium Picolinate
Active ingredient: Chromium Picolinate Pure product is a rose red crystal, slightly soluble in water and dilute acid solution. Due to the formation of stable complexes between chromium ions and three picolinate molecules, it has ideal stability and is easily absorbed by animals.
Mechanism of action: Chromium is one of the essential trace elements for animals and an active ingredient in animal glucose tolerance factor (GTF). The complex containing trivalent chromium is an enhancer of insulin. It can significantly promote the binding of insulin to cell receptors. Furthermore, it stimulates the tissue's uptake of glucose by the body. Chromium also participates in protein synthesis and metabolism of nucleic acids and fats.
Efficacy: It is stable and fat soluble. It can directly act on tissue cells through cell membrane. It is an organic chromium that is easily absorbed by the human body. It can regulate blood sugar, enhance insulin activity, improve human glucose metabolism, prevent and improve diabetes fatigue, polyuria, thirst and other symptoms, and prevent the occurrence of diabetes complications.. Increase lean meat ratio and reduce carcass fat content; Improve stress resistance and enhance the body's immune function; Improve feed efficiency and promote animal growth; Improve the litter size of sows; Reduce the mortality rate of piglets.
Usage and dosage: Add in the form of a premix, with an effective organic chromium content of 0.2% or 0.1%. Add 100-200 grams per ton of full price material.
⑵ Chromium nicotinate
Appearance: The pure product is a gray blue powder, slightly soluble in water, easily soluble in dilute acid, insoluble in ethanol, with chromium being trivalent.
Molecular formula: Cr (C6N4NO2) 3
Mechanism of action: Chromium is an important active ingredient of glucose tolerance factor, and the complex containing trivalent chromium is an enhancer of insulin. Significantly promote the binding of insulin to cellular receptors. Furthermore, it promotes protein synthesis and metabolism of sugars and fats, reduces body fat content, and increases lean meat percentage. The biologically active Cr3+can also enhance animal immunity, reproductive capacity, and improve the body's resistance to adverse conditions and stress. This product is non-toxic and residue free.
Effect: Reduce backfat thickness and increase lean meat ratio; Improve sow litter size, live litter size, and reproductive performance; Improve stress resistance and enhance the body's immune function; Improve feed efficiency and promote animal growth;
Suggested dosage: This product is added in the form of a premix, with an effective organic chromium content of 0.1% or 0.2%. For piglets, fattening pigs, and breeding pigs, 100-200 grams of full value feed should be added per ton.
⑶ Yeast chromium (chromium rich yeast)
Natural blood glucose regulators play a special role in the body's glucose and lipid metabolism. The essential trace element chromium activates insulin activity, regulates blood glucose, and inhibits the conversion of sugar into fat.
Main functions of chromium rich yeast
Enhance insulin activity and control blood sugar. Can regulate fat storage and help with weight loss. Reduce the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood to prevent cardiovascular disease.
① Reducing the blood sugar of diabetes patients can also improve their hypoglycemic response, which has a dual regulatory effect on blood sugar, can effectively control diabetes and eliminate abnormal glucose tolerance.
② It can significantly reduce serum cholesterol levels and alleviate symptoms of arteriosclerosis.
③ Can correct glucose tolerance abnormalities in children with chromium deficiency and long-term parenteral nutrition patients.
④ Can effectively increase human muscle mass and reduce fat.
⑤ Adding chromium to the diet of growing/fattening pigs can significantly increase the lean meat percentage of the carcass, improve feed conversion rate, reduce back fat thickness, and also improve the breeding performance of sows and the survival rate of piglets.
⑥ It can increase the egg production rate of laying hens, reduce egg cholesterol, increase the growth rate of broiler chickens, and lower the fat content of breast muscles.
⑦ Can improve animal endocrine and enhance stress resistance.
The optimal dosage of chromium rich yeast
The daily health and wellness dose is 100 micrograms per day. For therapeutic purposes, it is recommended to use 200 micrograms per day. Active dry yeast for brewing is the best way to consume it. Research has shown that 200 micrograms of yeast chromium per day can lower blood sugar by an average of 18%. Supplementing with over 200 micrograms of yeast chromium cholesterol daily will significantly reduce it.
