Chromium Picolinate, called by some "the Miracle Mineral", was originally developed by the USDA as a nutritional supplement and has been heralded in many fitness publications. Chromium is an essential trace mineral that is readily absorbed by the body in our patented liquid form.

Approximately 90% of all Americans are chromium deficient. Strong sugar cravings may be a sign of such a deficiency. Taking chromium supplements may help: ***

•  lower insulin levels
•  lower triglycerides
•  raise good-type HDL cholesterol
•  discourage artery-clogging and heart disease
•  lower bad-type blood cholesterol
•  normalize blood sugar
•  reduce the risk of adult-onset diabetes
•  thwart cancer growth
•  boost immune functioning
•  increase energy
•  increase lean body mass
•  improve production of anti-aging hormone DHEA

Chromium toxicity is very low. According to some studies, a 150-lb. person could take approximately 175,000 doses of 200-mcg chromium tablets and show no signs of toxicity. *** However, since chromium might be deposited in the liver and kidneys and because extra high doses are generally unnecessary, there is no reason for the average person to take above the regular dosages found in chromium supplements. **

Caution: If you are diabetic, take chromium supplements only with a doctor's supervision. Chromium may alter insulin requirements.
