What brand of chromium should I use?

Q: Is any brand of chromium picolinate ok to use? I know all the research used chromax brand. Thank you in advance for answering my question, and I look forward to reading your book when it arrives. I feel I have suffered from atypical depression all my life. I had a bad experience with a high dose antidepressant (Prozac) I took 10 years ago. I don't want to suffer anymore, but I don't want any more prescription drug side effects

A: There is more than one good brand of chromium. There are, however, some brands that are not effective. After much trial and error, the brand that I'm most comfortable recommending, the brand that works the best, is Chromax chromium picolinate made by Nutrition 21. It has been the most extensively researched and is the brand currently being used in several major, NIH-sponsored trials. It is far less expensive than pharmaceutical drugs and it has no serious side effects.

Good luck, and please let me know if Chromax chromium picolinate helps you.
