This overlooked trace mineral may be the secret to shedding pounds, according to a new research conducted by the University of Vermont.
Yale researchers also found this mineral to be an effective way to help diabetics manage their glucose levels.
What could this magic mineral be? The answer is chromium.
According to the researchers at the University of Vermont, supplementing diets with chromium helped dieters not only lose pounds, it helped eliminate unsightly, unhealthy excess belly fat, as well. Chromium helps fight cravings for carbohydrate-dense foods and sugar-filled snacks by promoting balanced blood sugar levels throughout the day.
Interestingly enough, eating food with high sugar content not only increases your chances of becoming overweight due to calorie consumption, it also depletes the chromium in your body.
So, to get the most out of a chromium supplement, it is best to eat a diet low in sugar, with lots of vegetables, fruits, lean proteins and healthy fats. Eating a healthier diet will not only make you lose weight, it can also make you feel better. If you want to speed things up, add chromium to your diet. This trace mineral will definitely make it easier for you to feel better, faster.
