Chromium Picolinate Overview

Meals on the go, sudden cravings, energy fluctuations... In everyday life, maintaining stable blood sugar levels can quickly become a challenge.

To support this balance, chromium is an essential trace element: it contributes to glucose metabolism and helps the body use insulin more effectively, thereby promoting steady energy levels throughout the day.

We selected CrPix® chromium picolinate, a highly bioavailable patented form providing 200 µg of chromium (500% of the NRV).

For enhanced efficacy, it is paired with two cofactors: vitamin B3, which optimizes the body's utilization of chromium, and active vitamin B6, involved in the balance of neurotransmitters linked to appetite and focus.

The result: a comprehensive formula designed to support balanced blood sugar levels, efficient metabolism, and better management of sugar cravings, while supporting everyday nervous system balance.

For who ?

Our Chromium Picolinate can be used by different types of people looking to optimize their metabolism and well-being.

In case of recurring sugar cravings
If you constantly crave sweets, it's often a sign of unstable blood sugar levels. Chromium helps smooth out these fluctuations and naturally reduces these cravings, especially if you have a sweet tooth or experience energy crashes after meals.

In the phase of dietary rebalancing
Chromium picolinate is an excellent ally for losing weight or maintaining your weight. By helping to manage sugar cravings and supporting your metabolism, it makes it easier to stick to a balanced diet.

In case of an unbalanced diet
Our modern lifestyle, rich in processed foods and poor in whole foods, can lead to chromium deficiencies. Supplementation is beneficial if you primarily consume refined products, frequently eat out, or lack time to cook.

For sporty people
Athletes have increased metabolic needs. Chromium supports the metabolism of carbohydrates and proteins, optimizing energy use and muscle recovery.

During periods of chronic stress
Chronic stress disrupts blood sugar levels and increases sugar cravings. Chromium helps to better manage these metabolic imbalances, especially if you tend to snack when stressed.

After 50 years
With age, chromium absorption decreases. Supplementation helps maintain optimal metabolism and prevent blood sugar imbalances, which are more common after age 50.

Directions for use

Take 1 capsule daily with a large glass of water, preferably in the morning on an empty stomach.

Duration of treatment
We recommend a 4-month course for optimal results. The first effects appear within the first few weeks, but the full benefits for metabolism develop over time, depending on individual lifestyle and metabolism. The Chromium Picolinate course can be repeated as needed.

Additional advice
To maximize the effects of chromium, eat a balanced diet rich in fiber, engage in regular physical activity (30 minutes a day), and stay well hydrated. Limit your consumption of alcohol and coffee, which can reduce chromium absorption.

Ingredients

Bulking agent: acacia gum, vegetable capsule (coating agent: hydroxypropylmethylcellulose), niacin (nicotinamide), coconut flour, vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5'-phosphate), chromium picolinate CrPix®.

Precautions for use

Chromium picolinate is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women (as a precautionary measure), children and adolescents under 18 years of age, or people with diabetes undergoing treatment. Since chromium can affect blood sugar levels, medical advice is essential to adjust your treatment if necessary. This product is not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Store in a dry place, away from heat and light.

Why choose our Chromium Picolinate?

Those recurring mid-afternoon sugar cravings, the rollercoaster of energy levels throughout the day, the sudden hunger spikes that return despite a balanced diet... Blood sugar imbalance is often the culprit. And chromium, one of the few nutrients to hold an official EFSA claim on blood glucose, is among the most thoroughly documented supports available.
Our Chromium Picolinate was formulated as a deliberately minimalist solution: 3 active ingredients, nothing more. At the heart of the formula is patented CrPix® chromium in picolinate form (200 µg per capsule, 500% of the NRV) the most bioavailable and extensively researched form on the market. Enriched with vitamin B3 and vitamin B6 (P5P) for complete support of energy-yielding metabolism.

CrPix® Chromium : the most bioavailable picolinate form

Not all forms of chromium are created equal. Chromium chloride is often poorly absorbed, and chromium nicotinate remains under-researched. Chromium picolinate is the most bioavailable and scientifically documented form. Our formula features patented CrPix® Chromium, developed by the lab Nutrition21, providing 200 µg of elemental chromium per capsule (500% of the NRV). Picolinate acts as a natural carrier that enhances the transport of chromium across the intestinal barrier.

Vitamin B3 & B6 Synergy

To enhance the action of chromium, we added two complementary vitamins. Vitamin B3 (niacin in the form of nicotinamide) contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and the normal functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin B6 in its active P5P form (pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, supplied by DSM) contributes to normal protein metabolism and normal psychological function. Together, these three active ingredients form a cohesive trio focused on energy and glucose metabolism.

Vegan and natural formula

Our Chromium Picolinate is formulated without controversial additives. The capsules are 100% plant-based (HPMC), making our product suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets. We do not use magnesium stearate, titanium dioxide, or any artificial colors or flavors.

Made in France

Your supplement is made in France, in compliance with ISO 22000 and HACCP standards. Every batch undergoes rigorous quality controls to guarantee its purity and dosage accuracy.

Convenient & Cost-Effective Format

Our bottle contains 120 capsules, providing a 4-month supply at one capsule per day. It offers excellent value for money, allowing you to complete a full regimen for lasting results.

Composition
Use
Effects

Why did you choose CrPix® chrome?

The CrPix® is apatented form of chromium picolinaterecognized for its exceptional bioavailability. Unlike conventional forms of chromium(chloride, oxide)Because chromium is poorly absorbed by the body, CrPix® optimizes intestinal absorption through its binding with picolinic acid. This form ensures greater effectiveness even at low doses, making it a benchmark in chromium supplementation.

Why combine chromium with vitamins B3 and B6?

We chose to formulate our supplement with vitamin B3 and B6 for several reasons: vitamin B3 improves the bioavailability and effectiveness of chromium, while vitamin B6 balances neurotransmitters related to appetite (dopamine, serotonin).

This synergy allows us to act on both blood sugar regulation and the management of cravings, for a complete action on metabolic balance.

What is the difference between chromium picolinate and other forms of chromium?

Chromium picolinate has a significantly higher bioavailability than other forms(chloride, oxide)Picolinic acid acts as a "carrier," facilitating the passage of chromium through the intestinal wall. As a result, your body absorbs chromium more effectively, allowing you to fully benefit from its positive effects on blood sugar and metabolism!

Why propose a dosage of 200 µg (500% of the NRV)?

This dosage corresponds to the recommendations of scientific studies for achieving significant effects on blood glucose and metabolism. It is perfectly safe and allows for concrete results, even in people with increased chromium requirements. European health authorities authorize this dosage because chromium does not present a risk of toxicity at the recommended doses.

Does your formula contain any additives or allergens?

No, our formula is 100% clean and therefore contains no additives or allergens.

We use only naturally derived excipients (acacia gum, coconut flour) and vegetable capsules. The product is free of controversial additives, GMOs, nanoparticles, gluten, lactose, and is suitable for vegans.

Where do your ingredients come from?

As indicated in the "composition" section of this page, CrPix® chromium comes from India (supplier Nutrition21), while vitamins B6 and B3 are produced in China by DSM, a world leader recognized for the quality of its ingredients.

Our product is then manufactured and encapsulated in France, in a certified laboratory that meets the strictest standards.

When to take chromium : morning or evening?

Chromium is more effective when taken in the morning on an empty stomach.

Can chromium be combined with other Novoma dietary supplements?

Yes, chromium pairs very well with other supplements for a synergistic effect. We particularly recommend combining it with :

  • Magnesium Bisglycinate : to better manage stress, which can disrupt blood sugar regulation and increase sugar cravings.
  • Multivitamins : to fill nutritional gaps and provide overall support for your metabolism.
  • Probiotics : to optimize your digestive health and metabolic balance.
  • Omega-3 : for comprehensive cardiovascular and metabolic support.

Simply space out the doses by at least 2 hours to optimize the absorption of each supplement.

How long does a chromium treatment last?

We recommend a minimum 4-month course of chromium for optimal results. One bottle of our Chromium Picolinate contains 120 capsules, which is exactly a 4-month supply. You can repeat the course as needed or incorporate it into your daily routine long-term without interruption.

Can I open the capsule if I have trouble swallowing it?

Yes, you can certainly open the capsule and mix its contents with water, juice, or food (such as applesauce or yogurt). Simply make sure to consume the mixture immediately and take the entire contents to receive the full dose.

Can I take chrome continuously or should I take breaks?

You can take chromium continuously without needing to take breaks. Chromium is an essential trace element that your body needs daily. Regular supplementation is even recommended if you have a diet low in chromium or increased needs.

What if I forget to plug in a socket?

If you miss a dose, don't panic! You can simply continue your treatment as normal the next day. Do not double the dose to compensate. Regularity is important for good results, but an occasional missed dose will not significantly impact overall effectiveness.

How long will it take to feel the effects of Chromium Picolinate?

The first effects of a Chromium Picolinate treatment generally appear within the first 1 to 2 weeks: improved mental focus, a slight reduction in sugar cravings, and better mood stability. After 3 to 4 weeks, the benefits intensify with a noticeable reduction in blood sugar spikes and hunger pangs. The most profound and lasting effects are felt after 6 to 8 weeks of treatment.

It's important to note that results vary from person to person depending on their metabolism and lifestyle. Consistency is key when taking dietary supplements.

Can chromium help me lose weight?

It is important to distinguish chromium from a fat burner or a slimming treatment.

Chromium can, however, support weight loss by helping to better manage sugar cravings and supporting metabolism. By helping to stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce hunger pangs, it makes it easier to adhere to a balanced diet.

To lose weight sustainably, chromium must be part of a comprehensive approach including a balanced diet and physical activity.

Does chromium affect cravings for salty or only sweet things?

Very good question!

Chromium primarily helps curb sugar cravings by stabilizing blood sugar levels. Sugar cravings are often linked to blood sugar fluctuations. In contrast, salt cravings generally have other causes (stress, habits, mineral deficiencies). The vitamin B6 in our formula can, however, help better manage compulsive eating behaviors in general.

Will I experience any side effects?

Chromium picolinate is generally very well tolerated. It is important to adhere to the prescribed dosage.

In rare cases, some people may experience mild digestive upset or temporary headaches at the start of treatment, which usually disappear after a few days. If you experience persistent side effects, we recommend stopping the medication and consulting a healthcare professional.

Are there any side effects or contraindications?

Chromium picolinate is generally very well tolerated as long as the dosage is correctly followed. In rare cases, mild digestive upset or transient headaches may occur at the start of treatment and usually disappear after a few days.

Important contraindications:

  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women (as a precautionary measure).
  • Children and adolescents under 18 years of age.
  • People with diabetes or undergoing antidiabetic treatment: it is essential to consult your doctor before taking this product, as chromium can influence blood sugar levels.
  • People taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or corticosteroids: ask your doctor for advice.

If you are taking medication, always consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting chromium supplementation.

Can chromium replace my diabetes medication?

No, chrome is adietary supplementand cannot in any way serve as a medicine or replace medical treatment.

If you are diabetic or undergoing antidiabetic treatment, consult your doctor before taking chromium.

Can I take chromium if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

As a precautionary measure and in the absence of specific studies, we advise against chromium intake for pregnant or breastfeeding women. Consult your doctor or midwife for personalized advice tailored to your situation.

Can chromium cause hypoglycemia?

In a healthy person, chromium does not cause hypoglycemia. It helps maintain normal blood sugar levels without causing them to drop excessively. However, if you are diabetic or taking medication that affects blood sugar, medical supervision is necessary because chromium can potentiate the effect of your medication.

Why am I not feeling any effects after 2 weeks?

The effects of chromium vary from person to person depending on your diet, lifestyle, and initial health status.

Some people experience benefits within the first few weeks, while others need more time. The most significant effects are generally felt after 6 to 8 weeks of regular use. Be patient and continue your regimen to fully benefit from chromium.

Does chromium picolinate help with weight loss?

Chromium is not a miracle weight-loss product. It's not a fat burner that melts away pounds effortlessly.

However, it can be a helpful tool in a weight management program. By helping to regulate blood sugar and reduce sugar cravings, it makes it easier to stick to a balanced diet and limits dietary lapses.

To lose weight sustainably, chromium must be part of a comprehensive approach including a varied and balanced diet, regular physical activity and good sleep.
