  • BioPerine®
    BioPerine® is an innovative form of piperine devoid of chemicals used for growing plants such as: fertilizers, concentrates, nutrients, pesticides or other plant protection products. The safety of its use has been confirmed by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Thanks to better absorption, in comparison to the conventional form, and the use of this form, a significant increase in bioavailability of other valuable components of this supplement is observed. This even leads to a 30-fold increase in its effects. In addition, BioPerine® contains more piperine than black pepper extract, which further intensifies the effectiveness of the product.

• Chromium 60 μg (150%*)
  • Chromium (Cr)
    If you’re into strength training, you may know chromium picolinate as a supplement useful in building muscle, burning fat, and metabolizing carbohydrates. Beyond these benefits, chromium moves blood sugar, also known as glucose, from your bloodstream into your cells. Here, glucose can be used to transform the macronutrients you eat – fats, carbohydrates, and proteins – into energy. Allows you to reduce the problem of snacking. Thanks to the stabilization of blood sugar, it suppresses the appetite. Supports the metabolism of macronutrients.
