Most bioavailable form of chromium supporting insulin sensitivity
We rank Chromium Picolinate by price per 40mcg - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.
Chromium Picolinate is a mineral supplement that combines chromium, an essential trace element, with picolinic acid. This specific combination is used because it is the most bioavailable form, meaning the body can absorb and use it more effectively than other versions.
It is primarily used to support insulin sensitivity. Insulin is the hormone that helps your body move sugar from the blood into your cells to be used for energy.
To create this supplement, manufacturers chemically bond chromium to picolinic acid in a controlled environment. This process creates a stable powder that is then measured and packed into capsules or pressed into tablets for sale.
This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because the process of bonding the mineral to the acid is more involved than producing basic mineral salts, but the raw materials remain widely available and competitive.

| weight loss in overweight and obese subjects | 1000 micrograms per day | limited |
