Diachrome improves blood sugar profiles in people with type 2 diabetes.

A study released at the 19th World Diabetes Congress meeting in Cape Town, South Africa, demonstrated that supplementing with chromium picolinate led to significant improvements in blood sugar levels of people with type 2 diabetes over a six-year period. In addition to existing treatments, 1056 patients with diabetes ages 20 to 90 years old were observed before and during supplementation with 500 mcg daily of chromium as chromium picolinate for one to six years. A significant decrease in fasting glucose levels of 4.67 mmol/L and postprandial glucose levels of 5.77 mmol/L was seen in patients taking chromium picolinate. The study showed that blood glucose levels continued to improve each year throughout the six years of study.
