Chromium and High Active Red Beet: Standard of Excellence
It is a beautiful Sunday in Bellevue, WA, and the sun is out! A wonderful treat for us in Washington State. A few words on Chromium seemed appropriate - it is all about enjoying our life, breathing deeply, and loving exactly where we are at now.
And of course, it is about becoming healthier. Take a look at the exciting research below.
Chromium with High Active Red Beet Root is 9 time stronger, with 50mcg of elemental trivalent chromium (whole molecule is 500mcg). The ligand on each of the new trivalent chromium is a molecule of nicotinic acid – Niacin.
Chromium is well represented in scientific literature with findings on cardiovascular health, including blood sugar metabolism and weight loss support (Hua et al., 2012; Wright & Hunter, 2014; Kim, 2018; Nair, 2019).*
High Active beet root offers a standardized 10,000ppm plant nitrate, which the body converts to nitric oxides (McDonagh et al., 2018). Beets promote nitric oxide bioavailability, which is shown in research to relax blood vessel muscles and open up circulation. Beets are reputed to be heart healthy, enhancing phase II liver enzyme (our body detoxification pathway), weight loss, and energizing the body with more oxygen (Hobbs et al., 2012; Beals et al., 2017; Krajka-Kuźniak et al., 2013; Clifford et al., 2015).
Yours as always,
Dohrea

My Research: Peace and a word on Metaphysics
Metaphysics, as we have learned, is beyond this changeable world, it is about things that do not change. Our intent in learning about metaphysics is to figure out what is not changeable within Kant’s Laws of Freedom- and as first causes, or universal truths that do not change. Last year I wrote that Kant’s (1785) Categorical Imperative is futuristic and impressive: “act only on that maxim through which you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law” (KA 4: 421). Even in the midst of wars, political chaos, and authoritative rulers of the 18th century, and against the popularity of Hobbesian thesis of anarchy in the international system, Kant formulated the Categorical Imperative. The core intention for the supreme moral law is quite simple: “to realize freedom.” Freedom is one of these unchangeable laws, but why? |
