Chromium
Chromium increases insulin binding to cells. It also increases action
of insulin on body cells. Because of increase binding and action of insulin, administration of chromium as diabetes nutritional supplement results in improvement of blood glucose control in diabetic patients. Anyone taking Chromium????ThanksStephenwww.net-diabetics.com

Yeah, same here. I suspect it'd only be helpful if you were deficient in it. Given that best sources are romaine lettuce, tomatoes and onions, I'm probably swimming in it, and I certainly don't supplement. http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?t...trient&dbid=51 Nicky.

Actually, picolinate is not useless, but it may have some damaging effects, hence the preference for GTF. Picolinate works just fine for insulin sensitizing. Susan
