![]() Chromium GTF is also necessary for the elderly and insulin-requiring diabetics, because they have difficulties converting Chromium to GTF on their own 7. This is because consumption of GTF does not get degraded when ingested, resulting in more available GTF in the body. Dietary Chromium GTF – where trivalent chromium is bound in a matrix of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae (Brewer’s Yeast) Nutritional Yeast is the most effective at reducing insulin resistance and performs best compared to other Chromium sources 6. ![]() Whatever.Though all trivalent Chromium sources lead to synthesis of GTF, not all chromium sources are created equal. From meat, milk, allergens, pollution, stress, your mother's traumas, tap water, soaps, underpaid jobs, pesticides in the orange juice, residues in table salt, GMO coconuts, metalic cookware and some fight you had with your brother when you were kids and you never "processed" (like processed cheese). You are gonna find papers on dangers of absolutely everything in our daily lives. Finding a simple solution that fixes so many things and allows you to live a happy life is, obviously, very healing. Or even better, forget about all this and live your life. If I would be you I would take the chromium, forget about the supposed dangers for a few weeks or months, and keep researching how you can keep improving metabolism and control glucose levels. I am not in favour of chromium "per se" but I'm sure it's much more carcinogenic to not digest, sleep, socialize, maintain blood sugar levels, handle stress, etc. "can cause", "possible", "long-term", "high-doses" You can't make definiteve statements with only one paper. There can be dozens of external variables that affect the paper claims. Things that make me think this should be taken with a grain of salt : Professor Lay said with the latency period for chromium(VI)-related cancers often greater than 20 years, the finding raised concerns about the possible cancer-causing qualities of chromium compounds and the risks of taking chromium nutritional supplements long term or in high doses." "We were able to show that oxidation of chromium inside the cell does occur, meaning it loses electrons and transforms into a carcinogenic form." Additional experiments have since been conducted at Australia's National Beamline Facility and the Photon Factory in Tsukuba Japan, (operated by the Australian Synchrotron) that has helped clarify the carcinogenic nature of chromium(V) and chromium(VI) formed in cells. "." The health hazards associated with exposure to chromium are dependent on its oxidation state. The latter gained notoriety from the book and 2000 movie, Erin Brockovich, which linked an elevated cluster of illnesses, including cancer, to hexavalent chromium in the drinking water of the Californian town of Hinkley." Trivalent chromium(III) picolinate and a range of other chromium(III) forms are sold as a nutritional supplements, while hexavalent chromium(VI) is its 'carcinogenic cousin'. Chromium is a trace mineral found primarily in two forms. Concerns have been raised over the long-term use of nutritional supplements containing chromium, after an Australian research team found the supplement is partially converted into a carcinogenic form when it enters cells. Ray has always cautioned against supplementing with chromium and I think we now know why. Ingestion of chromium III from dietary supplements can result into some cell metabolizing the "safe" chromium into the carcinogenic chromium VI. Well, this study found that this official story is not true. The official story has always been that chromium III is safe and it has no relation to chromium VI, and that exposure to chromium VI must be direct in order for cancer to develop. I am pretty sure most people on the forum are familiar with the movie "Erin Borkovich" and the story it tells on the intentional poisoning of a few cities in California with the carcinogenic chromium VI.
