Dear Readers:
Please accept my apologies for not responding to your mail during the past several weeks. Just recently, I realized I was not receiving mail. Reason: I switched publishing platforms and somehow the contact form link fell into cyberspace. That has been corrected and I look forward to trying to answer your questions.

Does Chromium Help Tryptophan Enter the Brain?

Filed under Atypical Depression, Research
Dear Dr. McLeod
Thank you so much for your work on chromium and depression. Here is my question: I know that tryptophan is a precursor of serotonin, and that brain levels of serotonin are involed in depression. Has any research been conducted to answer the question whether chromium helps tryptophan enter the brain?
ANSWER:
Yes. Research on this topic has been conducted by a group on splendid investigators in the Department of Psychiatry at Warneford Hospital in Oxford, England. They concluded that “Chromium can modify brain 5-HT function in humans and animals, perhaps by altering the sensitivity of central 5-HT(2A) receptors.” This may be the mechanism whereby chromium helps some people. I would certainly like to see more research on this topic.
Thank you for your question.

OBSERVATION:
Dear Dr. McLeod:
I have been fighting Diabet. for a year now. I am 58, and overweight by 40lbs. I was taking 50 Lantice each night. (Excuse me, but I think you mean LANTUS, which is a type of basal insulin). Also 1500 Metformin, and 6 to 8 units of Humalog, each day. My sugar highs were 600 and lows 58. Needless to say, I felt terrible. I began taking th4e Chromax Plus, Ultra Strength four weeks ago. Because of this product, My sugar levels are now 90 to 120.
How Might Chromium Help Memory and Concentration?

Dr. McLeod,
I have followed your research and that of others that links chromium deficiency with impairment of memory and concentration. I tried chromium, and like George in your book (Lifting Your Depression), it helped me focus and think clearly. How does chromium help memory and concentration?
