Re: Chromium is essential for proper blood sugar

 Duh. Chromium is a trace mineral. I'm tired.

So, kids especially need chromium supplimented because most kids don't eat very well, right?

Definitely won't hurt.  For kids though, unless they are diabetic I recommend 200mcg once daily.  Chromium rich foods also a good idea if you can get them to eat them.  Sources include nutritional yeast, onions, whole wheat, oysters, peas, and green stevia.

How many pills (all suppliments total) should we be taking a day, and is this forever, or do we take breaks?

You don't have to take breaks.  But unless you are diabetic, prediabetic, or have reactive hypoglycemia daily supplementation is not as important since you are likely getting enough chromium in your diet.

Thanks Hv.

What projects are we keeping you from? I'm sure glad you're here. Maybe something wonderful will happen and you'll be able to do it all, or have your projects done for you;-)

Mostly writing my book.  I think I have typed more here in the last few weeks than I have typed for my whole book so far.  My other project I have already completed my part and it is in someone else's hands right now.  Tonight I just took a group down to Chinatown to the herb shop.  That was fun.

I wish you much success.
