The metabolic syndrome is characterized by a group of metabolic risk factors in one person. They include:


  • Abdominal obesity (excessive fat tissue in and around the abdomen
  • Atherogenic dyslipidemia (blood fat disorders)
  • Elevated blood pressure
  • Insulin resistance or glucose intolerance (the body can’t properly use insulin or blood sugar)
  • Prothrombotic state (e.g., high fibrinogen or plasminogen activator inhibitor–1 in the blood)
  • Proinflammatory state (e.g., elevated C-reactive protein in the blood) 

People with the metabolic syndrome are at increased risk of coronary heart disease and other diseases related to plaque buildups in artery walls (e.g., stroke and peripheral vascular disease) and type 2 diabetes. The metabolic syndrome has become increasingly common in the United States. It’s estimated that over 50 million Americans have it.

How GTF Can Manage Metabolic Syndrome?

CHROMIUM Chromium is one of the component in GTF which is can helps to normalize blood sugar, potentiating the action of insulin (Glucose Tolerance Factor) and plays an important role in the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates.

Chromium is an essential nutrient required for normal carbohydrate and fat metabolism. Insufficient dietary intake of chromium leads to signs and symptoms that are similar to those observed in diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Dietary intake in the U.S and most industrialized countries is suboptimal due to the extensive processing of our foods.

The estimated and safe daily intake for chromium is 50 to 200 micrograms. Most diets, however, contain less than 60% of the minimum suggested intake. Supplemental chromium given to people with impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes leads to improved blood glucose, insulin, and lipid variables.

Strenuous exercise, high sugar diets and physical trauma result in high chromium losses and increase the need for chromium supplements. Chromium has been also shown to improve lean body mass in humans and certain animals. A significantly increased rate of growth was observed in a group of malnourished children given a chromium supplement.
Response to chromium is dependent upon the form and the amount of supplemental chromium.

GTF WORKFLOW ACTIVITY

Glucose Tolerance Factor (GTF) is sometimes also known as “insulin booster.” Insulin must interact with GTF and insulin receptor to successfully send glucose into cells so it can be converted to energy. GTF can therefore be said to boost the biological activity of insulin and enhance the insulin receptors’ sensitivity.

By promoting the binding of insulin and insulin receptors and increasing the permeability of the cell membrane, GTF enables blood sugar to enter cells.

GTF thus helps insulin accomplish its function of reducing blood sugar.

As long as the elements of insulin, GTF, and insulin receptors are functioning properly, insulin can play its role as the body’s sole hormone responsible for reducing blood sugar.

But if any one of these three elements is missing, hypoglycemia and diabetes will occur.

Chromium is a constituent ingredient of what is called the Glucose Tolerance Factor (GTF). It works closely with insulin to facilitate the uptake of glucose into cells. In individuals with impaired glucose tolerance, such as those with diabetes, hypoglycemia, and obesity, supplementation with chromium is of paramount importance. Without chromium, blood sugar levels stay elevated because the action of insulin is blocked so that glucose is not transported into the cells
