I really like Chromium polynicotinate. I take 100mg, twice a day with meals.
It is helping to reduce my sugar levels.
Chromium is enhances the effectiveness of insulin, needed to process sugars (glucose). Supplemental chromium reduces blood glucose levels.
I read somewhere that it's estimated that more than 90% of U.S. adults have a deficiency of the mineral chromium.
Make sure you take chromium polynicotinate, and NOT chromium picolinate!
"Nobody should take chromium picolinate."
Chromium polynicotinate is much more safe and effective.
Research has found large amounts of chromium picolinate cause chromosome damage, whereas chromium polynicotinate did not.
Since this mineral assists in the production of insulin, it helps to stabilize blood sugar levels and can be beneficial both for people with hypoglycemia and diabetes. It is also critical to the synthesis of cholesterol, fats, and proteins.
Chromium Polynicotinateis more effective than any other type of chromium, as it binds the elemental chromium to niacin (vitamin B-3). This provides a biologically active form of chromium, which is safe and more absorbable in the body.
Consumers are urged to switch to a nontoxic form of chromium, such as niacinbound chromium, also known as chromium polynicotinate. Niacin-bound chromium is the safest and most bioavailable form of chromium. Most health food stores carry niacin-bound chromium polynicotinate.
