Additional information

Chromium, an essential nutrient for sugar metabolism, works with insulin to support the uptake of glucose into cells. Physical activity and a diet high in sugary or carbohydrate-rich foods may increase the loss of chromium from the body, contributing to unstable blood sugar levels and sugar cravings in healthy people.

In Blackmores Sugar Balance™, chromium is combined with other nutrients that support sugar metabolism, including vitamin D3, zinc, manganese and magnesium.

Together, these nutrients support the body’s efficient uptake of blood sugar into the cells, where it can be burned as fuel.

B-group vitamins are involved in the conversion of carbohydrates, proteins and fats into energy.

Exercise and dieting may deplete body levels of many of these vitamins and minerals, so supplementation can provide extra support for those following weight loss programs.
