Chromax Diet Pills Review

Chromax, developed by Nutrition 21, is not a diet pill so much as a single ingredient commonly found in a diet supplement: chromium picolinate. In fact, Nutrition 21 claims that their ingredient "is used almost exclusively as the key ingredient in chromium supplements marketed by the weight loss vitamins and supplements industry."

They state that chromium picolinate has been widely researched in over 35 studies with thousands of subjects, and that it has been found safe, effective and more bioactive than other forms of chromium, especially for those with insulin resistance. In fact, Nutrition 21 actually holds patents for specific uses of chromium picolinate, such as for blood sugar regulation, increasing lean body mass and helping to build muscle while decreasing body fat, supporting healthy cholesterol levels, alleviating PMS and decreasing depression.

Nutrition 21 does produce a product, called Iceland Health Chromax Plus, which contains two forms of highly absorbable chromium, chromium histidinate and chromium picolinate. This product is designed for "promoting healthy blood sugar, supporting cardiovascular health and helping increase energy and boost metabolic rate."

It appears that Nutrition 21 has done their homework and that much scientific research backs the use of Chromax chromium picolinate for various health issues. However, we see their Chromax Plus product as too one-sided to be considered a smart weight loss diet tool. Chromium picolinate provides just one factor in supporting a weight loss diet. We prefer to see chromium picolinate used in conjunction with gymnema sylvestre, garcinia cambogia and other ingredients to provide a more powerful and well-rounded approach to fast weight loss.

Conclusion: Because of the lack of other important weight loss diet supporting ingredients, Weight Loss Guide does not recommend the purchase of Chromax Plus Diet Pills.
