In reply to Chromium useful in dysthymia, posted by andrewb on November 27, 1999, at 20:19:53
I used 200mcgs. chromium several years ago for almost a year, I was taking it to help control my weight, so I can't remember if it helped my depression. What I can remember is the reason I stopped taking it: I read a report that long term chromium usage had been proven to cause chromosonal changes in the body, specifically damaged chromosones. They didn't conclude what this actually meant to the individual, but since I knew that I wanted to get pregnant the next year, I didn't want to take any chances with my or my baby's chromosones.CarolAnn
