Bis--picolinate OxoVanadium (BPOV) - complex trace element vanadium and picolinic acid. Vanadium is a trace element of the insulin-like activity, lowering blood glucose, so that it can participate in the transport of nutrients into the muscle cells. The picolinic acid has an anti-inflammatory potential and chelating properties. BPOV is included in the supplements for athletes and physically active people as creatine supplements, as a factor intensifying the uptake of nutrients by muscle cells.
