Vanadium

Compare every Vanadium product across UK retailers on Suppio, ranked by true value - price per active dose, not pack size. Prices refreshed daily.

Trace mineral that may support insulin sensitivity

We rank Vanadium by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.

What it is

Vanadium is a trace mineral, which is a mineral the body only needs in very tiny amounts to function. It is a naturally occurring element found in the earth.

Why it's used

It is primarily used as a supplement to support insulin sensitivity. Insulin sensitivity refers to how effectively the cells in your body respond to insulin, the hormone that helps move sugar from your blood into your cells for energy.

How it's made

To create the supplement, vanadium is typically extracted from mineral ores through chemical processing. This process turns the raw mineral into a stable, soluble compound, such as a salt, which can then be ground into a fine powder and put into capsules or tablets.

What it typically costs

Vanadium is generally affordable. This is because the raw mineral is relatively easy to source from the earth and the chemical process used to refine it into a supplement is straightforward and common.
