| Fight Fat And Stay Lean With This Amazing MineralWant to supercharge your fat loss efforts? Just use this one incredible mineral and you’ll be able to burn more fat, keep more muscle, and have an easier time staying lean and toned. You normally get this mineral in food… but nowhere near enough. And, if you’re working out on a regular basis, chances are you’re deficient in it.
That’s because exercise causes the body to lose most of it. What mineral am I talking about?
Chromium!
Simply put, chromium plays an important role in your body, as far as maintaining stable sugar levels. But as research is pointing out, it can do a whole lot more… For example, a study published in the Journal of Animal Science gave a large group of pigs a chromium supplement. Nothing else was removed or added to their diet. The end result was a SIGNIFICANT reduction in weight and an increase in muscle mass. Another separate study done at the University of Kentucky found the same exact thing. They gave pigs chromium and the result was an increased percentage of muscle and a decreased percentage of fat.
Okay, so now you’re probably thinking, “That’s great for pigs. But what about for humans!?”
Well, the good news is chromium has the same powerful fat-burning, muscle-building effect on humans. Australian researchers took two groups of people. One group was given a calorie-restricted diet. The second group could continue eating whatever they normally ate, but were given a chromium supplement. The researchers studied both these groups for 6 months. Of course, the calorie-restricted group lost weight. But the surprising thing was that the folks taking the chromium supplement lost just as much weight! What’s more, they actually had a slight increase in muscle too. And here’s the kicker… when they gave chromium to the group that was starving themselves thin, they increased their muscle mass, without gaining extra fat.
How’s that for one little amazing mineral? So if you aren’t already, you SHOULD take chromium to maximize your fat loss efforts. You can find it at any local health food store labeled as chromium picolinate. Most will come in doses of 200mcg – 400mcg. So train hard, eat clean, and take some chromium if you want to start seeing some incredible, mouth dropping, head-turning results!
