Pure Chromium Polynicotinate Supplement - Made in USA - 200mcg + Vitamin B3 for Optimal Absorption, Veggie Cap, 14 Week Supply

This supplement seems to really help my A1c

I became interested in chromium when I discovered my fasting glucose was below 60 and I was tired all the time, especially after meals. I did micronutrient testing and found that my chromium levels were almost nonexistent. I take these with every meal along with digestive enzymes and while it is still early yet to say that all is back to normal, I do feel immensely better. In my research I find that there is very little on chromium and its role in metabolism. Most studies only refer to diabetics and those that are on parenteral nutrition (food through the veins, not the stomach). But what little I have found through alternative sources suggests that we as a nation, here in the U.S., are considerably lower in tissue samples of chromium than other nations, our soil is depleted and the refined food industry is rampant... a leading cause of chromium depletion in the tissues. In my case, as I eat very well, no refined foods or heavy sugars in my diet, it was a collaborative effect of being vegetarian and consistently under a significant amount of stress that caused my body to overly excrete chromium.I think the bigger issue here is that chromium testing isn't routine, yet at depleted levels it leads straight to diabetes. Chromium helps us to metabolized carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.... again in my case, having little to no chromium in my tissues prevented me from metabolizing properly and I ended up in a malnourished state according to my lab results. I am someone who juices regularly, protein smoothies one to two times per day and generally eat well. I thought it was the 15 hour days that were making me tired, but it was more than that, I wasn't able to properly utilize the nutrition that I was taking in. Had I not done the micronutrient testing, I would've never known about chromium.I bought this product because of the quality and the delivery along with the B vitamins. I want to make sure that I am able to absorb and utilized everything that I put into my body, that is the only way that I will regain my health. I am grateful to have found this product and to be taught such an important lesson regarding nutrition.If you feel tired all the time and particularly after meals, I suggest you get your chromium tested and then take this product. With in a few days to a week I was able to eat a meal and not feel like I had been drugged and so exhausted. This product is clean and it works.

This product works for me! Having the needed B3 included for proper absorption is a no-brainer, making the necessary combination an easy, 1-pill dose. Thank you for that! Struggling for years with sugar and carb cravings, and post-op roller coaster blood sugar levels led me to research Chromium Polynicotinate. Early on, I had some success with Chromium Picolinate, but it was short lived and just didn't work long-term. I had a successful RNY gastric by-pass back in the 90s, and although I dropped 243 pounds, the sugar and carb cravings in my brain eventually resurfaced, and I picked up extra weight. The cravings have little to do with stomach size; it's brain chemistry that runs the show. Combining the cravings with blood sugar spikes and plunges (after eating carb-based meals that bring on a food-drunk or drug-like sleep, and the potential damage as a result) pushed me to cut WAY back on carbs and dig until my personal research concluded that this form and specific brand of Chromium (Chromium Polynicotinate by SuperiorLabs), enhanced by the inclusion of B3, is the best form for bio-availability, giving me the results I need. Full disclosure: I'm Italian. Never eating pasta again isn't realistic! Depending on the meal, I still search for sweets after dinner (and some of that is definitely habit!), but I'm not totally obsessed with post-meal sweets as in the past. I'm convinced that with time and continued use, I'll be after dinner-hunting less and less. That's no small success for a night-eater that owns a food business and requires little sleep! The OTHER and most important MAJOR BENEFIT I'm finding is in giving it to my 85 yr old father who struggles with cognitive impairment and memory loss (Dementia). He takes NO DRUGS! Taking the Chromium Polynic daily with breakfast (along with the other supplements for his specific needs) is helping control his repetitive thoughts and statements, preserving MY sanity! His mood is also MUCH lighter, making him able to cope with the recent loss of my mother. THANK YOU GOD!! ("Yes Dad, your license expires in TWO YEARS and 3 months...we'll take care of it then!, "No Dad, your "fire" (furnace) won't go out.") I'm also noticing his after dinner fretting (Sundowning??) is vanishing. It seems apparent that Dementia is Diabetes of the brain, so balancing blood sugar in the elderly is paramount! I can't rest if he can't rest, and his mind is constantly ON! So, ANY bit of relief we can BOTH enjoy is GREATLY APPRECIATED! I'm hopeful! Bravo to SuperiorLabs! - Susan

Haven’t noticed anything with this product

Like most people, I am very careful when it comes to supplements, which are not tested for efficacy. However, I am using this product to help lower my Hemoglobin A1C. So far, the results have been slow and steadily down. I will keep using the product for several months. Since this condition takes years to develop, it's unreasonable that this supplement, or any other, could cure the condition overnight.One additional thing I should mention. Many nutritional supplements have traces of Niacin. Niacin is known to cause hot flashes, flushing and heart palpitations-I know this from personal experience. This formula DOES NOT contain Niacin but does contain niacinamide, which has been shown to help lower blood sugar but without those nasty side effects. Please remember that the opinions expressed here are just that-OPINION. I am not a health care professional and nothing in this review should be construed as a ​​​​statement of fact.

Very disappointed! The first bottle I bought had white medicine in the capsule. The second bottle has beige medicine in the capsule. I could see a difference with the first bottle. This second one not so much. I tried to exchange but the seller doesn't accept returns. I'm not sure what's in the capsules but it's definitely not what's on the label and I'll be purchasing else where.
