Chromium supplementation associated with exercise: a systematic review
Abstract
One of the dietary supplements that has gained most notoriety is the mineral chromium, the literature states main functions potentiate the action of insulin with a better connection liver protein GLUT4 capturing more glucoseand reduce the lipid profile inhibiting hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA liver enzyme reductase. Thus, there is just one possible outcome hypoglycemic and lipid-lowering. Its usefulness oriented to sports uses not only the organic replacement, but mainly becausethe chromium may further the anabolic via an increase in insulin sensitivity, which benefits the adaptive metabolic response with increased amino acid uptake and protein synthesis accordingly. Thus, itseems appropriate review to elucidate the chromium action on individuals undergoing physical tests and training.
