does it work? Omg my cravings are really getting to me. I have cut out coffee as that was making it worse. I am eating a wholefood diet so I started taking chromium yesterday.

    My friend swears by it, I take it everyday, I do notice a bit of a difference on cravings. My friend has lost 130 lbs and
    is diabetic, I read somewhere it is more beneficial for diabetics.

    I've always read that Chromium Picolinate and L-Glutamine were great for cravings when taken together.

    I've read that Chromium Picolonate was good for that but not sure about the Glutamine. Glutamine is good for protecting your muscles during exercise. I have read that CLA was also helpful with diet and fat loss. Basically if you take an Amino Acid supplement in addition to any vitamins you'll consume a lot of your core Amino's and then you can get Chromium as a separate supplement.

    Waste of money. Most research shows a minimal result in the most obese patients. Save your money.
