Abstract in brief

  • The study investigated how chromium picolinate (CrPic) affects food intake and feelings of hunger, particularly in overweight women craving carbs, and in rats.
  • Results showed that in women, CrPic reduced food intake, hunger, and fat cravings over 8 weeks, and in rats, central (brain-based) injections of CrPic decreased food consumption more significantly than peripheral injections.
  • These findings suggest that CrPic may help regulate food intake by acting directly on the brain, which could explain its potential to help manage weight gain.]

@Epi_Net Sí que tiene evidencias. No tanto sobre la pérdida de peso como sobre el control del apetito y de las glucemias. Te dejo un estudio y un hilo citando más investigaciones. La que adjuntas es del 2006 y en ratas. Ojo con eso. https://t.co/hByoWJ09lf https://t.co/jyLYSKnQkG
