Benefits
- Aids recovery by enhancing glycogen synthesis
- Helps keep energy levels high

Cautions
- As with anything, there are always potential “negatives” and here are a few things you want to watch out for. Generally speaking, Chromium has been shown to be safe, when taken in proper dosages. However, a few things to consider:
- You should not exceed 1000 mcgs daily.
- Do not take it on an empty stomach and then not eat for a while. It may lower your blood sugar too much. It’s best to take prior to a meal.
- Chromium Polynicotinate is the most absorbable and ChromeMate® is the patented branded that’s been tested for both effectiveness and safety.
- Also, make sure you always take Chromium along with Biotin for correct balance to prevent deficiencies. Blood Sugar Optimizer™ has this correct 3:1 ratio.
