Doctors most often prescribe ‘diet and exercise’ for recently diagnosed diabetes patients. But more and more physicians are adding chromium to the prescribed mix, to control, in some cases, reverse excess blood sugar and weight. If you’ve ever heard the dreaded words ‘You’ve got diabetes’ from your doctor, you’ve also heard him say the words ‘diet and exercise’ as a prescribed remedy for the Type 2 condition.
This is standard physician boiler plate advice. It’s general, but hard to dispute as a way to counter a diabetic condition that, if left unchecked, could be fatal.
Now, doctors are expanding their prescription to include a miniscule level of trace mineral, called chromium, to treat diabetes.
Chromium was first discovered to have beneficial diabetic qualities back in 1958, as a mechanism for controlling healthy blood sugar activity.
More recently, researchers are finding that a specific type of chromium not only keeps blood sugar under control, but it also addresses another diabetes triggering condition – overweight or obesity.
You can find a variety of chromium types – picolinate, acetate and chloride on the market. But a relatively recent variation, called oxygen-coordinated, niacin-bound chromium, can address both unhealthy blood sugar and excess weight.
In clinical studies conducted at Harvard, Creighton University, UC Berkeley and others, niacin-bound chromium was found to help normalize blood sugar levels and reduce body weight. Specifically, body weight results proved to be three times greater than those realized, following the traditionally prescribed ‘diet and exercise alone’.
Recently, several noted physicians, including Dr. Harry Preuss, Georgetown University Medical Center, and Dr. Nicholas Perricone, author of four best-selling books, identified niacin-bound chromium as beneficial to non-diabetics, as well.
These benefits include lower cholesterol, lower blood pressure and increased longevity. For more information please look below.
