GTFEXCELL 250 HIGH CHROMIUM YEAST

GTF Excell® Chromium Yeast 250 is a highly bioavailable and stable form of chromium, supporting increased health benefits.‡

Chromium is a compound used by the liver to manufacture fatty acids, lecithin, cholesterol (HDL), and lipoproteins. Our resilient chromium yeast supplement ingredient also helps manage already healthy blood sugar levels, accelerates glucose transport to cells, and stabilizes appetites for healthy weight management.‡

Chromium is a trace mineral that supports the metabolization of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. GTF Excell is organically bound with the prebiotic yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, making it highly bioavailable and better utilized than other forms of Chromium. Data shows that chromium yeast helps to increase levels of absorption of chromium over the long term, making it key to optimizing chromium levels in the body.‡

WHAT IS GLUCOSE TOLERANCE FACTOR?

Glucose tolerance factor (GTF) is the biologically active form of chromium that functions to regulate carbohydrate metabolism and enables insulin activity. GTF chromium yeast is widely studied for its potential health benefits.‡

The limitations of the bioavailability of chromium are widely recognized, making the discovery of GTF a game-changer in chromium supplementation and bioavailability. Research reveals that GTF and food-bound chromium may be better absorbed into the body’s tissues, leading to the development of yeast fortified with chromium. Chromium yeast is a more bioavailable form of chromium. ‡

  Chromium Yeast Research Data  

Chromium yeast and chromium are widely studied for their potential health benefits:

Research shows that supplementation of chromium-enriched yeast is considered safe and may support beneficial changes in oxidative stress. 5, ‡

Chromium supplementation may support beneficial changes in individuals seeking to maintain already healthy blood sugar levels 6, ‡

Research suggests potential benefits of GTF for a range of conditions including to support healthy blood sugar and blood pressure levels already in the normal range, cardiovascular health, and healthy weight management. 2, ‡

May support healthy glucose metabolism. 7, ‡
