Chromium is the BFF of sweet tooths & sugar cravers

Sugar

 

If you’ve had to fork out at the dentist for fillings, need larger clothes than before, or know any of the 371 million diabetics (according to CBS news) you’ll know this information is priceless!

When you’re low in chromium you’ll crave sugar (if extremely low you’ll get an itchy scalp, and kids a rash they constantly lick around their mouth). Give will power the flick and raise your chromium levels so you don’t crave in the first place.

Our bodies don’t make it, you have to eat it (broccoli, grape juice, black pepper, celery, asparagus, potatoes…)

Supplements can be very useful however all brands are not equal. If the cravings don’t stop switch brands!
