Your body only needs a tiny amount of chromium, but that tiny amount does a lot. Chromium is a trace element you get through your diet. Think of broccoli, whole grains, and nuts. Yet, many people don't get enough. This LUTO Supplements supplement provides 200 µg of chromium per tablet, bound to picolinic acid. This is a form that your body absorbs more easily than simple chromium salts. One jar contains 100 tablets, enough to last more than three months.
Chromium helps maintain normal blood sugar levels. That might sound technical, but here's how it works: when you eat, your blood sugar rises. Your body then produces insulin to transport this sugar to your cells. Chromium plays a role in this process. It enhances how your cells respond to insulin. Furthermore, chromium contributes to the normal metabolism of macronutrients. These are carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. In short: the trace element helps your body process nutrients.
What many people don't realize: pure chromium is barely absorbed by your gut. The absorption of inorganic forms of chromium is particularly low. This is where chromium picolinate comes in. In this form, chromium is bound to picolinic acid, a substance your body also produces itself as a byproduct of tryptophan metabolism. This binding means the trace element passes through your gastrointestinal tract more stably and is more available for absorption. The difference is therefore not in how much chromium is in the tablet, but in how much actually reaches your bloodstream.
The label states 500% of the reference intake. This sounds like a lot, but for trace elements, the picture is different than for vitamins. The reference intake for chromium is set at 40 µg per day. In clinical research, dosages between 200 and 1000 µg are often used. With 200 µg per tablet, this LUTO product is at the lower end of these research dosages. This is a deliberate choice: enough to make a difference, without unnecessarily high dosing. The tablets are also small and easy to swallow.
The ingredient list is short. Besides chromium picolinate, you'll find microcrystalline cellulose as a filler, magnesium stearate, HPMC, and silicon dioxide. No colorants, no lactose, no gluten, and no animal-derived ingredients. The tablets are vegan and GMO-free. Production takes place in Europe according to DIN EN ISO 9001 and HACCP standards. These are quality systems that provide guarantees on purity and consistency per batch. By the way, for a single-ingredient product like this, such a short ingredient list is exactly what you want. Nothing superfluous that doesn't belong.
With 100 tablets per jar and one tablet per day, this LUTO Supplements chromium supplement lasts you for more than three months. A simple product with a well-thought-out form choice and a dosage that matches what is common in research. Nothing more, nothing less.
In this supplement, chromium is bound to picolinic acid. This is an organic compound that your body also produces itself. Inorganic forms of chromium, such as chromium chloride, are barely absorbed by your intestine. Binding to picolinate makes the trace element more stable as it passes through your gastrointestinal tract and more readily available.
In clinical studies, dosages between 200 and 1000 µg of chromium per day are often used. At 200 µg per tablet, this product is at the lower end of this frequently used range. Enough to be relevant, without unnecessarily high dosing.
The jar contains 100 tablets. At one tablet per day, it lasts for more than three months. The tablets are small and easy to swallow.
The ingredient list is short: chromium picolinate with only plant-based excipients. No artificial colors, no lactose, no gluten, and entirely vegan. Manufactured in Europe according to ISO 9001 and HACCP standards.

Chromium is a trace element that helps maintain normal blood sugar levels. It enhances the way your cells respond to insulin, the hormone that carries sugar from your blood to your cells. Additionally, chromium contributes to the normal metabolism of macronutrients, meaning the assimilation of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
The official reference intake is 40 µg per day. In clinical research, dosages of 200 to 1000 µg are used. This tablet contains 200 µg, which corresponds to the lower limit frequently used in research. This is well above what most people get from their diet.
Preferably during or after a meal. Chromium plays a role in macronutrient assimilation, so taking it with a meal is a logical time. Additionally, you generally tolerate the tablet better on a full stomach.
At one tablet per day, this jar will last you for over three months. That's longer than many supplements with 30 or 60 capsules. Additionally, LUTO Supplements offers a tiered discount if you order multiple jars at once.
Pure chromium is barely absorbed by your intestines. The absorption of inorganic forms of chromium is particularly low. Picolinic acid is a substance that your body also produces itself as a byproduct of tryptophan metabolism. By binding chromium to picolinic acid, it passes through your gastrointestinal tract more stably and is better available for absorption. The difference, therefore, is not in the amount of chromium in the tablet, but in the amount that actually reaches your bloodstream.
The most common forms are chromium picolinate, chromium chloride, and chromium yeast. Chromium chloride is an inorganic form that your body absorbs poorly. Chromium yeast contains chromium bound to yeast cells, which improves absorption but is less standardized. Chromium picolinate is a chelate in which chromium is coupled to picolinic acid. This bond makes it stable and relatively well absorbed. In clinical research, chromium picolinate is one of the most commonly used forms.
