Actually, there is. There are two parts two chromium picolinate. The chromium ion in its pure state was shown to have no adverse effects. When picolinate was tested, it was found to have dose-dependent adverse effects. The problem is the picolinate, not the chromium.
Pubmed is down right now, or I'd show you the abstract.
