Chromium

We will enroll non-obese, non-diabetic subjects with insulin resistance in a 16 week treatment program with 500 μg of chromium picolinate twice daily. Insulin action will be determined by insulin clamp and OGTT using deuterated glucose both before and after treatment. Subjects will be compared to a placebo-treated group.
