Hi Friend,

Long ago, our ancestors would fertilize

their fields with compost and manure.

This "full spectrum" fertilization concept

kept trace minerals, like chromium, in

the soil and in the food supply.

Today, modern agri-business does not

add chromium to the soil and, hence,

each time we harvest a crop, there

is proportionately less amounts of

chromium both in the soil and the

food supply. We then take what

precious chromium is in the food

and strip it out in the milling

of grains and the refining of sugar.

While the Food and Nutrition Board

of the National Academy of Sciences

considers 50-200 micrograms daily of

chromium to be adequate, 90% of

Americans do not consume at least

50 mcg of chromium per day.

Chromium plays a pivotal role

in the crucial molecule "Glucose

Tolerance Factor" which, along

with insulin, "opens the doors"

of the cell membrane to allow

glucose into the cell for fuel.

Chromium deficiency is common

in America, even by conservative

standards, and plays a major role

in the growing incidence of Type 2

diabetes in this country. Chromium

supplements seem to benefit diabetics

who are chromium deficient, which

is the majority.

In one large placebo-controlled

trial examining the role of chromium

supplements in Type 2 diabetes,

60 diabetics were given placebo

(inert ingredients), 60 others were

given 200 mcg of chromium daily,

and the third group of 60 diabetics

were given 1000 mcg of chromium daily.

All patients continued their medication

and medical monitoring of their condition.

Chromium supplements helped regulate

fasting glucose, reduce glycosylated

hemoglobin, insulin values and total

cholesterol--all in a dose-dependent

fashion, meaning that 1000 mcg of

chromium worked better than the

200 mcg dosage.

Best food sources of chromium are

foods grown on chromium rich soil,

which is a "hit or miss" concept

because most of us don't know where

our food is grown. Liver, meat,

cheese, legumes, beans, peas,

whole grains and molasses

(but not white flour or white sugar)

are good sources of chromium.

Far and away the richest source

of the active form of chromium,

Glucose Tolerance Factor,

is brewer's yeast. See the

"superfood" newsletter.

Talk to you soon.

Warm Regards,

Martha
