Dosage of New Chromax

Dosage of New Chromax

hi dr. mcleod,
i stumbled upon your research and blog online today and am praying Chromax will help me in my 20 year battle with depression, pmdd, sad and 3 bouts of ppd. All of which run on both sides of my family along with diabetes.i noticed the 500 mg capsules of Chromax have 250mg of chromium picolinate and 250mg of chromium histidinate? If I need 1000mg of Chromium Picolinate according to your blog, should I take 2 or 4 of these pills each day? Have you studied both forms of Chromium? Think this is a new formulation of Chromax…..Thanks!

Answer:

Yes, you are referring to the newest formulation of Chromax. By clicking on the following link you can see how it is package and where to purchase: itIceland Health Chromax Plus. This formulation contains chromium that has been bound or chelated with picolinic acid and histidinate. The hope is that absorption of chromium will be increased by mixing these two forms of chroium. You should take 2 pills each day if your goal to to take 1000 micrograms of chromium per day.

Please let me know if this helps.
