    Supplements: Chromium Picolinate


    Source of Recipe


    3 Fat Chicks on a Diet
    Chromium is believed to be an essential trace mineral. One form, chromium picolinate, has been sold as a weight loss aid for many years. It is claimed to boost athletic performance, build muscle, and promote weight loss. The Federal Trade Commission have determined these claims to be deceptive.
    While chromium may have health benefits, extensive clinical trials have shown that chromium does not have an effect on weight loss. Chromium can cause side effects in many people, including everything from stomach discomfort to genetic mutations in DNA. Chromium may also interfere with other supplements or medications.

    Conclusion:
    Avoid chromium supplements. They do not aid weight loss, and could result in health problems.
