Cancer research, in particular, may benefit from DNA methylation analysis, because changes in the methylation status of nucleosomal DNA promise to be a powerful marker in the early detection of neoplastic events (9-11).
Chromium MAX assists in the uptake of glucose into cells. Chromium is a component of Glucose Tolerance Factor, the biologically active form of chromium, involved in glucose metabolism. A diet high in simple sugars or refined carbohydrates increases chromium requirements.
Chromium enhances the actions of insulin and is necessary for maintaining normal metabolism and storage of fats, proteins and carbohydrates. Inadequate intake of chromium has been linked to the development of glucose intolerance, a condition seen in type 2 diabetes.
