Blackmores Sugar Balance helps reduce cravings for sweet foods that may develop due to dieting or low blood sugar. This formulation is specially designed to enhance chromium absorption and help balance blood sugar levels.
One of the biggest challenges in sticking to weight-loss diets is not succumbing to sugar and carbohydrate cravings. These cravings may be the result of having low blood sugar due to dieting, leaving long intervals between meals, increasing exercise, eating refined and processed foods low in essential nutrients, or having a stressful lifestyle. Blackmores Sugar Balance has been formulated to help:
* balance sugar levels in the body
* balance the appetite and reduce tiredness due to low blood sugar
* reduce cravings for sweet foods that can develop due to dieting
* replace nutrients needed for energy production and appetite control that are lost due to increased exercise
* support the production of energy from the metabolism of food
Blackmores Sugar Balance is a chromium formulation to help reduce cravings for sweet foods that may develop due to dieting or low blood sugar. It is specially designed to enhance chromium absorption. Blackmores Sugar Balance also helps replace nutrients needed for energy production and appetite control that are lost due to increased exercise.
Blackmores Sugar Balance contains chromium, an essential nutrient for sugar metabolism, plus manganese, vitamin D, zinc and magnesium which also help to control sugar levels. These nutrients are utilised by the body for efficient uptake of blood sugar into the body cells where it is burned as fuel.
