Chromium is an essential trace mineral that potentiates insulin action and influences carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism. However, most self-selected diets contain less than 50 mcg per day, which is below the minimum of the Estimated Safe and Adequate Daily Dietary Intake established by the National Research Council, Food and Nutrition Board. Studies have shown that supplemental chromium may be useful for the maintenance of healthy blood sugar.
Suggested Use
As a dietary supplement, adults take 1 capsule daily with meals, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
