 How much Chromium Picolinate in each capsule? February 20, 2010
Walter A. Byrd (Denver, CO USA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have read the description, and the details, I can not find out how many micro-grams in each capsule. That makes me suspicious. It is as if they have something to hide. I am especially suspicious when I read about so many 5-star reviews from the same person.

'NOW' OFFERS THE RIGHT KIND OF CHROMIUM IN CAPSULES July 14, 2006

THE RIGHT FORM OF CHROMIUM AND IN CAPSULES FROM 'NOW'!!
WHAT IT IS:
Chromium is a trace mineral that has been shown to be helpful for [in descending order]; Diabetes, High cholesterol, Hypoglycemia, High triglycerides, Insulin resistance syndrome (Syndrome X), Athletic performance, Depression, Weight loss.
WHY THIS CHROMIUM?
This product is the right form of Chromium [Picolinate] and in capsule form so it is optimally absorbed. The price is excellent, about the same as Wal-Mart, but Walmart's brand is in tablet form. The "NOW" brand is one my favorite because of their consistently superb quality control, and the efficacy of their products. The expiration dates are have been excellent, [leaving 2-3 years] which indicates the product still has a long potential shelf life and has not been sitting in a wearhouse for too long.
If you have any type of digestive system disorder the "PICOLINATE" form is the only way to go because it does not require your pancreas to secrete anything in order for the chromium to be absorbed.
OTHER BRANDS?
I have also used the "SWANSON" and "NATURE'S WAY" brands with equally good results, but I will usually pick "Nature's Way" when given a competitive choice. Swanson though usually comes in somewhat less expensive, and in the right form, and in capsules. ThIS "NOW" brand is just as good, just a little less available and sometimes not as deeply discounted.
