Descriptionsof Chromium and Chromium-enriched Yeast:
1. Functions ofChromium:
(1) Chromium, an essential trace mineral forhuman body, plays an important role in assisting the functioning of humanimmune defense system and in the adjusting of blood sugar in human body.
(2) Chromium deficiency has been linked to an increased risk of coronaryvascular diseases such as high blood pressure and stroke.
--The Glucose Tolerance Factor (GTF) is responsible for controlling thebodies' regulation of blood sugars; while chromium is necessary for GTF towork, and assists with insulin causing it to work more efficiently.
2. AboutChromium-enriched Yeast:
Chromium-enriched yeast is a kind of special yeast which can provide ampleorganic chromium.
By adding inorganic chromium into the fermenter, theyeast can combine the chromium into the intracellular proteins orpolysaccharides during growth.
The chromium-enriched yeast can provide more safe and more effective chromium.
Characteristics ofChromium-enriched Yeast:
1. High chromium content: up to 2000mg/kg;
2. High absorbability: the organic chromium is easier to be absorbed by humanbody;
3. Low toxicity: the toxicity of the organic chromium is lower than inorganicchromium;
4. If combined use with other nutritional yeasts like selenium-enriched yeast,zinc-enriched yeast and yeast beta glucan,nutritional yeasts will have the best effect on human body.
Applications ofChromium-enriched Yeast:
1. The nutritional yeast (chromium-enriched yeast)can be adopted as the raw materials of all kinds of foods, functional foods andmedicines etc;
2. It can also be used as the raw materials of nutrient-fortified foods, suchas dairy products, biscuits, beverage, flour etc;
