Pure picolinate quality Made in Germany

It is an essential trace element and an important mineral that the human body needs for vital metabolic processes. As we cannot produce it ourselves, our supply depends on our diet. A high-quality supplement can be particularly useful for sports or unbalanced eating habits in order to efficiently compensate for deficiencies.

We pay meticulous attention to quality when making our selection in the Gigas Shop. Many standard products use inorganic compounds that the body can hardly utilize. GN Laboratories, on the other hand, relies on an organic chromium compound: pure chromium picolinate.

Here the active ingredient is bound to picolinic acid. This structure significantly improves absorption in the body³. This ensures that the mineral arrives where it is needed. Another quality feature is the origin: the production of the chromium tablets is completely Made in Germany under strict controls.

Influence on sugar metabolism and insulin action

Why is this product so important for athletes and health-conscious people? The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) officially confirms two key effects:

  • Chromium contributes to a normal metabolism of macronutrients.
  • It contributes to the maintenance of normal blood sugar levels.

In practice, this means that a normal metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates is dependent on this element. Sugar metabolism is particularly relevant here. The micronutrient plays a role in how effectively insulin can work to transport glucose from the blood into the cells².

Optimized insulin action (sensitivity) helps to keep blood sugar peaks more moderate after eating sugar or carbohydrates. A stable level is often the key to avoiding cravings and maintaining consistent performance during training.

200 mcg daily portion for your chromium needs

The correct dosage is crucial, as the body needs quantities in the microgram range, but must use them efficiently. Age can also play a role, as the absorption capacity of minerals can decrease over the years.

Our picolinate 200 mcg tablets are highly dosed and provide you with maximum power per whole unit. This daily portion is ideal for safely covering even increased requirements.

Recommended intake: We recommend taking with a carbohydrate-rich meal (e.g. lunch). Thanks to the break notch, the tablet can easily be halved if you want to start with 100 mcg.

Information on ingredients and safety

Transparent information is important to us. A look at the ingredients shows: We do not use unnecessary fillers or allergens. This food supplement is vegan and very well tolerated. Excess amounts are generally excreted as a water-soluble mineral¹, which makes it very safe to use when dosed correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What are chromium tablets good for?
They primarily support macronutrient metabolism and help to keep blood sugar levels normal. This makes chromium tablets particularly valuable for diets and phases of body definition.
What is the difference between chloride and picolinate?
The difference lies in the bioavailability. Chloride is inorganic and difficult to absorb. Picolinate is organically bound, which improves absorption and increases efficiency.
Is the product highly dosed?
Yes, with 200 mcg of pure active ingredient per whole tablet, this preparation is one of the strongest dosages in our range.
When should I take chromium?
Preferably with a main meal. As the intake affects blood sugar, the timing together with carbohydrates (e.g. after training or at lunch) is ideal.
