Chromium
for Diabetes?
Researchers at the Dept. of Nutrition & Medicine, U. of Tenn.,
Knowville *, noted that they "...had previously shown that insulin
'reduces the constriction of blood vessels and speeds up the relaxation
and recovery from deleterious effects of induced calcium overloading, as
well as stimulating beneficial gene activity in smooth muscle cells.]
Note: amended to simplify the jargon only.
Their new research suggested that chromium picolinate may be effective
in insulin-resistant states in improving blood flow.
