Niacin
Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, is a water-soluble vitamin found in a variety of foods, including meat, poultry, fish, and fortified grains. It plays a variety of roles in the body, including in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It is also necessary for the production of energy in the body and in the synthesis of different hormones. Niacin deficiency is rare in developed countries, however, supplementation has been shown to have several positive benefits. For example, it can reduce the risk of diabetic neuropathy (i.e., nerve pain) and has been shown effective for treating some types of high cholesterol (extended-release niacin is used as a prescription drug in the United States for this purpose). There is a multitude of niacin forms available as dietary supplements, including NADH, niacinamide, and nicotinamide riboside, all with different properties.

Zinc
Zinc is a mineral that is essential for the proper functioning of the human body. It is involved in many important physiological processes, including immune system function, wound healing, taste, and smell. Zinc is found in a variety of foods, including meat, seafood, and whole grains, and it is also available as a dietary supplement. Zinc supplements may be used to treat or prevent zinc deficiency, which can occur due to certain medical conditions, such as gastrointestinal disorders, alcohol abuse, and certain medications. Zinc supplements may also be used for other purposes, such as to boost the immune system, improve acne, and reduce the severity and duration of colds. There are several different forms of zinc supplements available, including zinc gluconate, zinc acetate, and zinc sulfate. The most common form of zinc supplements is zinc gluconate, which is well absorbed and is less likely to cause stomach-related side effects than other forms of zinc.

Chromium
Chromium is a trace mineral that is found in small amounts in the human body. It is believed to play a role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It is used as a dietary supplement for its purported ability to help with weight loss and blood sugar control. There is some evidence to suggest that chromium supplements may help to improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes, although the results of studies on this topic have been mixed. Some studies have found that chromium supplements can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce blood sugar levels in those with poorly controlled diabetes, while others have found no significant effects.

| General Statements |
- Saccharomyces cerevisiae is grown in a non GM soya-based medium. The yeast cell walls are gently pre-digested and broken down with enzymes from pineapple and papaya fruit to release the nutrients within each cell.
- This product is not tested on animals.
This is one of three products in The Stream Line Pack.
Charitable organisations policy: supplements regularly donated
- Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels.
Niacin and Vitamin B6 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
- Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.
- Fermentation is a very special process, which enriches yeast with all the nutrients used in the growing mixture, forming natural organic bonds and loose complexes. Yeasts take in nutrients rather than consuming them and are for this reason valued food sources for nutrients. The active nutrients are added to a completed fermentation of the culture Saccharomyces cerevisiae to form a homogenous mixture for better absorption in the gut and optimum bioavailability of all nutrients. GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) is an organic molecule containing chromium used by the body to help maintain normal sugar levels. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the richest known food source of GTF.
- This bottle has a UV filter.
|
| Precautions |
- Some people have an allergic response to yeast but the allergen, which causes an allergic response, is a protein on the yeast cell wall and when broken down the protein’s ability to evoke an allergic response is largely lost.
- Keep out of reach of children.
