What positive effects can chromium supplements have?

Chromium, a mineral found in a variety of foods (especially mushrooms), seems to help control blood sugar. Taking 200 micrograms a day of the supplement chromium picolinate can help aid the uptake of insulin, to help your cells use blood sugar for fuel. Chromium increases your cell's sensitivity to insulin and is depleted by refined sugars, white flour, and lack of exercise.

One study showed users lost 4 pounds over 10 weeks compared to no pounds from a control group. Though the studies aren't definitive at this point, I recommend the supplement for waist -- and blood sugar -- control. You should take it with magnesium, which reduces low-grade inflammation that can be associated with insulin resistance.

A dose of 600 micrograms of chromium has been shown to be effective for those with Type 2 diabetes, but for others, stick to the recommended dose of 200 micrograms. Just because a little is good doesn't mean taking a lot more is better. Taking too much chromium can hurt your kidneys.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
