Proper
blood sugar maintenance can dramatically impact your health. From your
cardiovascular system to your weight to your muscles, maintaining healthy
levels of blood sugars can help you support long-term health.
While a
proper diet and exercise is a great start, sometimes our bodies need more for
healthy blood sugar support. That's why we've created Isotonix Isochrome,
a complete blood sugar maintenance supplement.
One small
study suggests that chromium picolinate may reduce the risk of insulin
resistance, and therefore possibly may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes.
Providing two unique forms of chromium into our formula - including chromium
picolinate - enables Isotonix Isochrome to help provide healthy blood sugar support
and help maintain healthy levels of blood sugars.
This
blood sugar maintenance formula also includes B vitamins, coenzyme Q10 and
L-Carnitine, each of which work to support Isotonix Isochrome's unique benefits
for energy and weight management.
And, like
all Isotonix nutritional supplements, Isotonix Isochrome provides its powerful
formula using a highly bioavailable form of nutritional supplementation - the
Isotonix Delivery System, helping ensure greater absorption and results.
Ingredients
Chromium Picolinate
Chromium
picolinate is an essential trace mineral which promotes efficient functioning
of insulin, which is important because good insulin activity is critical for
hunger control, supporting metabolism, building and retaining muscle and vital
organ tissue. Chromium picolinate is good for individuals trying to lose weight
since it helps retain muscle mass. When muscle tissue is lost, it may reduce
the metabolic rate.
Chromium Arginate
Chromium
arginate is a form of chromium that is bonded with the essential amino acid
Arginine. Like chromium picolinate, it too can support normal insulin activity
and the metabolism of protein, fat and carbohydrates. Together with chromium picolinate, chromium arginate helps to support cardiovascular health by helping to maintain normal insulin sensitivity. It also helps maintain healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels, preserve lean muscle mass and control sugar cravings.
Coenzyme Q10
Coenzyme Q10 belongs to a family of substances
called ubiquinones and is a fat-soluble, wax-like substance that is part of the
respiratory chain. It is synthesized in the cells and is involved in electron
transport and energy production in mitochondria where about 95 percent of the
total energy required by the human body is generated. In the cellular system,
CoQ10 functions to generate energy from oxygen, in the form of ATP. CoQ10 also
exhibits activity as a free radical scavenger and an antioxidant. The
antioxidant activity in the mitochondria and cell membranes protects against
peroxidation of lipid membranes.
Coenzyme Q10 can be found in spinach, broccoli, nuts, meats and fish. In the body, it is found in highest concentration in the cells of the heart, liver, kidney, spleen and pancreas, which all require vast amounts of energy. Supplementation with CoQ10 may be most beneficial for adults because the levels of CoQ10 in the body tend to peak around the age of 20 and then decline with age.
L-Carnitine
L-carnitine
is an amino acid that is found in nearly all cells of the body. L-carnitine
supports fat metabolism in the heart, organs and tissue. L-carnitine occurs
naturally in animal products and only very small amounts are found in plants,
with a few exceptions, such as avocado and some fermented soy products. It also
plays an essential role in the transportion of long chain fatty acids into the
mitochondria of the cell, which results in additional energy in the form of
adenosine triphosphate (ATP). L-carnitine is synthesized in the body, mainly in the liver and kidneys,
from the essential amino acids L-lysine and L-methionine.
Lipase
Lipase is
a fat-digesting enzyme that supports the body's normal breakdown of dietary
fats into an absorbable form. Lipases, such as human pancreatic lipase, support
the normal conversion of triglyceride substrates found in oils from food to
monoglycerides and free fatty acids. Some lipases also work within the interior
spaces of living cells to support the normal degradation of lipids.
