I've been using chromium picolinate for years to help manage my blood sugar. I've noticed that if I run out of chromium, the effect on my blood sugar is the same as if I ran out of a prescription diabetes drug. The increase in my blood sugar is immediate and noticeable. The lady who said it made her jittery might not have read the part about being careful about drinking too much caffeine

Comment:
I have only taken Chromium for about 1 month now. I take 200-400 mg daily for diabetes. Not sure if it will help but I felt it worth a try. I also take Metformin and Glipizide along with 35 units of Lantus daily. My dr. is placing me on fast-acting insulin. Not sure if I will be able to continue Chromium with all this. May be too much and cause low-blood sugars. Will be interesting to see.
