Chromium
It has been estimated that 80% of Americans are deficient of this vital mineral. Our highly refined diet is the culprit – refining grains removes about 75% of chromium.
To make the situation worse, there is also now a lack of chromium in our soils and water supply.
Symptoms of deficiency may include
Glucose intolerance – borderline diabetes, anxiety, fatigue, atherosclerosis, heart disease, obesity
Natural sources
Brewers yeast, brown rice, wheat germ, meat, liver, cheese, whole grains.
