Chromium Picolinate from Swanson
Are you mindful of your diet and looking for a chromium supplement? Swanson's Chromium Picolinate provides 200 micrograms of chromium per capsule, bound to picolinic acid. Available in a bottle of 100 or 200 capsules, so you can choose what suits you best.
What chromium does in your body
Chromium is a trace mineral that you only need in small amounts. It can be found naturally in whole grains, nuts, broccoli, and meat. Chromium contributes to the normal metabolism of macronutrients, which is how your body processes carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It also contributes to the maintenance of normal blood sugar levels. Each capsule provides 200 micrograms, a fixed daily amount.
Why bound to picolinic acid?
In this supplement, chromium is bound to picolinic acid, hence the name chromium picolinate. It is one of the most commonly used forms of chromium in supplements.
Foods containing chromium
Chromium is found in small amounts in whole-grain products, nuts, broccoli, meat, and yeast. Because the amounts in each food are low, it is difficult to estimate exactly how much you are getting. A supplement provides a fixed amount per capsule. This way, you know exactly how much you are adding each day, in addition to what you already get from your food.
Choose between 100 or 200 capsules
This product is available in two sizes: a bottle of 100 capsules and a bottle of 200 capsules. At one capsule per day, the larger bottle will last you over six months. The capsules are small and easy to swallow with some water. Those who want to include chromium in their routine for a longer period usually choose the bottle of 200 for convenience and supply.
Good to know: this remains a supplement to a varied diet. With this chromium picolinate, you add a fixed amount of chromium in the size that suits you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does picolinate mean?
Chromium is bonded to picolinic acid, hence chromium picolinate. It is one of the most commonly used forms of chromium in supplements.
When should you take chromium picolinate?
With food and a glass of water, at a fixed time of day. One capsule per day is sufficient. A fixed time helps with adherence.
Should I choose the 100 or 200 capsule jar?
That depends on your plan. The 100-capsule jar is convenient for trying it out, while the 200-capsule jar provides over half a year's supply if you take one capsule per day.
What foods contain chromium?
Chromium occurs naturally in whole grains, nuts, broccoli, and meat. The amounts are small because your body needs very little chromium. A supplement specifically tops up these levels.
