Q.What is Chromium?
A. Chromium is a metal. It is called an “essential trace element” because very small amounts of chromium are necessary for human health. Chromium is used for improving blood sugar control in people with prediabetes, type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and high blood sugar due to taking steroids.

Q.How does Chromium works?
A.Chromium might help keep blood sugar levels normal by improving the way our bodies use insulin.

Q.What are the possible uses of Chromium?
A.Type 2 diabetes. Some evidence shows that taking chromium picolinate (a chemical compound that contains chromium) by mouth can lower fasting blood sugar, lower insulin levels, and help insulin work better in people with type 2 diabetes. Chromium picolinate might decrease weight gain and fat accumulation in type 2 diabetes patients who are taking one of the prescription drugs called sulfonylureas.

Q.What are the side effects of the Chromium?
A.Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Chromium is LIKELY SAFE during pregnancy and breast-feeding when taken by mouth in amounts that are equal to or less than “adequate intake” (AI) levels. However, women should not take chromium supplements during pregnancy or breast-feeding unless advised to do so by their healthcare provider.
Kidney problems: There are at least three reports of kidney damage in patients who took chromium picolinate. Don’t take chromium supplements, if you already have kidney problems.
Chromate/leather contact allergy: Chromium supplements can cause allergic reactions in people with chromate or leather contact allergy. Symptoms include redness, swelling, and scaling of the skin.

Q.What can high-chromium foods do for you?
A.Help maintain normal blood sugar and insulin levels
Support normal cholesterol levels

Q.What wre the food sources of the Vanadium?
A.The best food sources of vanadium are mushrooms, shellfish, black pepper, parsley, dill weed, beer, wine, grain and grain products, and artificially sweetened drinks. Vanadium exists in several forms, including vandal sulfate and vanadate. Vanadyl sulfate is most commonly found in nutritional supplements.

Q. How does Vanadium  work?
A.There is some evidence that vanadium might act like insulin, or help to increase the effects of insulin.

I've been taking this for a while to balance my sugar levels. I have severe hypoglycemia and this really helps.
