Fortunately, more Americans than ever before are becoming more conscious of the benefits of certain kinds of nutritional supplementation. Most of the major news magazines have recently carried cover stories emphasizing the advantages of a wide array of natural remedies.

As Vern S. Cherwatenko, MD, co-author of The Diabetes Cure, aptly puts it: "The plant kingdom has always been a medicine chest for man."

The latest breakthrough from the plant kingdom is a unique product called Ultimate HCA with Chromium and Vanadium--a potent combination of ingredients that have been extensively researched.

HCA (hydroxycitric acid) is naturally derived from the fruit of the Asian Garcinia Cambogia tree. Taken in sufficient quantities HCA has been found to reduce cravings for sweets while enhancing glucose utilization. It is so effective that it has been widely used as a natural alternative to pharmaceutically-based diet products.

Ultimate HCA with Chromium and Vanadium has been designed to nutritionally support the action of the pancreas and aid the body in assimilating essential nutrients.

HCA (especially in combination with Chromium) allows the muscles of the body to absorb more glycogen. When this happens a 'full' signal is sent to the brain so you eat less. In addition, HCA also binds to left-over glycogen in the bloodstream, slowing down the rate at which glycogen is converted to fat. The result is a natural approach to glucose control without side-effects.

Chromium is an essential trace mineral required for normal protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism. Research shows that the typical American diet is low in chromium, and that chromium supplements can often help control blood sugar and lower cholesterol. But not all chromium is the same.

Chromium Polynicotinate (as found in Ultimate HCA)--not Chromium Picolinate--is a superior biologically active niacin-bound chromium.
