- Time-dependent uptake, distribution and biotransformat ion of chromium(VI) in individual and bulk human lung cells: application of synchrotron radiation techniques: Such processes may also be important in reducing the potential hazards of Cr(III) dietary supplements, for which there is emerging evidence that they exert their anti-diabetic effects via biological oxidation to Cr(VI).

Low doses of chromium 6, combined with vitamin C, produce up to 15 times as many chromosomal breaks and up to 10 times more mutations ? forms of genetic damage that lead to cancer ? compared with cells that lacked vitamin C altogether.

- ChromoNexin - Metabolism - Weight Loss: Chromium Polynicotinate & Chromium Picolinate Matrix Chromium picolinate is a patented version of the trace mineral chromium. Studies show that this dietary supplements benefits include weight loss, lowered serum cholesterol and glucose, burned fat, and built muscle Picolinic acid is produced in the human body, apparently for the purpose of improving the cellular uptake of trace metal ions. Scientists have demonstrated that several minerals in picolinate form are many times better assimilated than most other forms of the same minerals.
