Chromium Picolinate
Chromium picolinate is an essential trace mineral deficient in 90 percent of American diets. It promotes efficient functioning of insulin, which is important because good insulin activity is critical for hunger control, supporting metabolism, building and retaining muscle, and vital organ tissue. For dieters, it is important for chromium picolinate to retain muscle because up to 30 percent of weight lost on most diets is muscle tissue. When muscle tissue is lost, it reduces the metabolic rate, which can promote weight rebound, known as the “yo-yo” diet-syndrome. Chromium picolinate helps to keep muscle and maintain or increase the metabolic rate.*
Chromium Arginate
Chromium arginate is a form of chromium that is bonded with the essential amino acid Arginine. Like chromium picolinate, it too can support normal insulin activity and the metabolism of protein, fat and carbohydrates. Recent scientific reports published in scientific and medical journals prove that it is effective in fat metabolism. Nutritionists believe that it is the supplement of the new millennium.
Together with chromium picolinate, it helps to support cardiovascular health by helping to maintain normal insulin sensitivity. It also helps maintain healthy blood sugar and cholesterol levels, preserve lean muscle mass, and control sugar cravings.*
Co-enzyme Q10
Coenzyme Q10 belongs to a family of substances called ubiquinones and is a water-insoluble, wax-like substance that is part of the respiratory chain. It is synthesized in the cells, and is involved in electron transport and energy production in mitochondria where about 95 percent of the total energy required by the human body is generated. In the cellular system, it functions to generate energy from oxygen, in the form of ATP, for bodily processes. CoQ10 also exhibits activity as a free radical scavenger and an antioxidant. The antioxidant activity in the mitochondria and cell membranes protects against peroxidation of lipid membranes.*
Coenzyme Q10 can be found in spinach, broccoli, nuts, meats and fish. In the body, it is found in the highest concentration in the cells of the heart, liver, kidney, spleen and pancreas, which all require vast amounts of energy. Supplementation of CoQ10 may be most beneficial to adults because the levels of it in the body tend to peak around the age of 20, and then decline with age. The affects of supplementation with CoQ10 have shown to be especially beneficial to patients with heart failure and patients on cholesterol-lowering medications.
L-Carnitine
L-carnitine is an amino acid that is found in nearly all cells of the body. It supports fat metabolism in the heart, organs and tissue. L-carnitine occurs naturally in animal products. Normally, only very small amounts of L-carnitine are found in plants, with a few exceptions, such as avocado and some fermented soy products. It also plays an essential role in the transportion of long chain fatty acids into the mitochondria of the cell, which results in additional energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). L-carnitine is synthesized in the human body, mainly in the liver and kidneys, from the essential amino acids L-lysine and L-methionine.*
Living a full and active life requires energy, but muscle fatigue and weakness can run you down. L-carnitine aids in combating fatigue and promoting energy and stamina, which is most useful for dieters, seniors, vegetarians, athletes and individuals that are suffering from chronic fatigue and muscle weakness. It helps preserve lean muscle mass, and is a cofactor in the utilization and absorption of chromium into the body.
Lipase
Lipase is a fat-digesting enzyme that supports the body’s normal break down of dietary fats into an absorbable form. Lipases, such as human pancreatic lipase, support the normal conversion of triglyceride substrates found in oils from food to monoglycerides and free fatty acids. Some lipases also work within the interior spaces of living cells to support the normal degradation of lipids.

Why is fructose in isotonic products?
Fructose is the sweetest of all naturally-occurring sugars. It helps to make nutraMetrix Isochrome pleasant-tasting with fewer calories. Consuming fructose does not produce the extreme “highs” and “lows” in blood sugar levels that ordinary table sugar might.
What is the best time of day to take nutraMetrix Isotonix Isochrome?
Because Isotonix Isochrome contains CoQ10, a fat soluble co-enzyme, Isotonix Isochrome is best taken with a meal.
Is chromium picolinate safe?
Yes. Over 35 clinical trials have been conducted to analyze chromium picolinate and its effects. Studies have shown that 400 mcg per day is a good base level for most adults. If you are more active, you may need more. If you are less active or over the age of 65, 200 mcg per day is recommended.
Can you get L-carnitine from any food sources?
Yes, L-carnitine can be found in meats, vegetables and grains. It typically comes in higher concentrations in red meats, such as beef or lamb, and in lower concentrations in white meats and vegetables. Since vegetables are low in carnitine, it is good to supplement your diet with L-carnitine.
What are the other ingredients in Isochrome useful for?
Isochrome also includes boron, potassium, and vitamins B2 and B6. Potassium is a mineral that helps maintain fluid balance in the body, promotes normal nerve transmission, muscle relaxation, glycogen and protein synthesis, and proper heartbeat. Vitamin B2 promotes glycogen synthesis, supports energy production, and supports the normal breakdown of fats while functioning as a cofactor in activating vitamin B6 and folic acid. Vitamin B6 helps to promote protein metabolism, and the normal break down of glycogen, supports the conversion of linoleic to arachidonic acid, and promotes the normal synthesis of brain chemicals, niacin, antibodies, red blood cells, DNA and elastin.
