RECOMMENDED READING

Chromium

Chromium is an important mineral for sugar and carbohydrate metabolism.

People who are chromium deficient often complain about cravings for sugar or sweet things, or have large swings in blood sugar, with symptoms of hypoglycaemia some time after eating.

Chromium also helps in diabetes, in that it helps with sugar metabolism, and some studies have shown that it stabilises and helps with the blood sugar control.

The most useful form of chromium is chromium picolinate, which is found in our capsules.

Recommended Dosage

One or two capsules daily.

May be increased if necessary – as advised by a health practitioner.

Cautions / Adverse Reactions

Chromium is extremely well tolerated, with no side-effects known at the recommended dosage.

There are no known contra-indications at the recommended dosage.

  • Chromium picolinate 200mcg
