What are the symptoms of deficiency of the mineral chromium in humans?
Dietary deficiency of chromium is believed to be widespread in the United States, a consequence of eating too many processed foods from which the naturally occurring chromium has been removed. Chromium deficiency leads to insulin resistance, a condition in which the cells of your body do not respond to the presence of insulin. Insulin resistance can lead to elevated blood levels of insulin (hyperinsulinemia) and elevated blood levels of glucose, which can ultimately cause heart disease and diabetes. In fact, even mild dietary deficiency of chromium is associated with a medical condition known as Syndrome X, which includes hyperinsulinemia, high blood pressure, high triglyceride levels, high blood sugar levels, and low HDL cholesterol levels, all of which can increase your risk for heart disease.
