Default saw palmetto, magnesium & chromium picolinate

I posted this question in the alternative remedies a few days ago, but I'm thinking that maybe it would fit more appropriately under this section. So...

I was wondering if anybody can help me. I recently read that taking certain herbs/supplements can help with PCOS symptons, more specifically with the IR problems. However, the source that I found (plus numerous others, that I've managed to dig up) failed to say how many mg or mcg are suggested, per day. The ones that I am specifically curious about are:
Saw Palmetto
Magnesium (with Zinc)
Chromium Picolinate

Also, I was wondering if anybody else ever heard of/about Vanadium. It was also mentioned in this article I found, but I couldn't find it at the pharmacy, and the pharmacist I spoke to had never seen/heard of it before. Anybody know anything about these supplements???
Thanks a bunch!!!!
