Read this first Everything here is reference information drawn from the research literature, not medical advice, and Lamduan is neither a doctor nor a pharmacist. Supplements are not medicines and do not replace anything a doctor has prescribed. If you take regular medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, have liver or kidney disease, or have surgery coming up, speak to a pharmacist or doctor before starting anything on this page.

What it is

A trace mineral involved in insulin signalling, sold as a weight-loss aid and sugar-craving suppressant.

What it helps with Weak

Cochrane concluded there is no reliable evidence to inform a decision — in those words.

Effect on hormones Weak

Effects on insulin sensitivity are unreliable outside genuine chromium deficiency, which is rare.

Weight and fat loss Weak

The Cochrane pooled figure is about 1 kg, on low-quality evidence. Plainly: it barely works, but the marketing story has outlived the data.

Sleep No human data

Nothing to do with sleep.

Other health effects Weak

No confirmed benefit in people who are not chromium deficient.

Dose and ceiling

Commonly used: 200-500 mcg per day

No limit — because the data are insufficient to set one, not because it is proven safe. People with kidney or liver disease may be more susceptible.

Caution Isolated case reports of liver and kidney problems, rhabdomyolysis and hypoglycaemia — scattered reports rather than a clear pattern.

Interacts with medicines Adds to the effect of diabetes medicines and insulin, risking hypoglycaemia. Reduces thyroid medicine absorption — separate by 4 hours.
