Default Anyone take chromium polycinate?

I was wondering if anyone took this vitamin. The IR diet book recommends 200mg/3 times a day. I want to try it. Has it helped anyone?? Any side effects??

I've been taking it for just over a month. I am currently just doing the 200mg/day with breakfast. Maybe I'll bump it up to see if there is a difference.

I take Chromium GTF and kelp.

I definately noticed a difference (in the UK we are often iodine deficient, hence the kelp)

As a side note when I was following Atkins induction and using ketostix I experimented and found if I didn't use chromium I couldn't get into ketosis unless I went as low as 15g of carbs per day and with chromium sometimes I was touching ketosis on 40g.

In my opinion I think it works! and I've never had any side effects.
