| Description of Chitosan 500mg with Chromium 120 Caps, NOW Foods | |
Chitosan is a dietary fiber derived from the shells of crustaceans that
has been shown in non-clinical studies to bind to fat and cholesterol in the digestive
tract. NOW Chitosan contains LipoSan Ultra, a patented high-density form of Chitosan
that binds up to five times more fat than conventional Chitosan according to laboratory
testing. A published clinical study has demonstrated that LipoSan Ultra, taken
as directed, may aid in the support of healthy body weight and serum cholesterol
levels already within the normal range.
NOW Chitosan has also included Chromium in this formula. Chromium is an
essential trace mineral that works with insulin to support healthy blood glucose
levels and plays an important role in the proper utilization of protein, fat and
carbohydrates.
