Question Is High Blood Sugar Making You Fat

I found the question and answer about this subject in the woman's magazine First. I was excited after reading it because if it works, I will try it.

Q. During my physical, the doctor told me that I had prediabetes and might need to take medication. She also explained that this condition is the reason it's been so hard for me to keep my weight down the last few years. How can I drop about 40 pounds and get my blood sugar under control so I don't end up having to go on medication?

A. Here's great news for you: Chromium, a nutrient proven to stabilize blood sugar levels and speed weight loss, is even more effective when paired with the B-vitamin Biotin, according to a study in the journal Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics. This dynamic duo lowers blood sugar by 35 percent in three months, which is faster than relying on chromium alone. Chromium and biotin together improve cells' ability to utilize glucose. This prevents excess glucose from triggering cravings and belly-fat storage. The beneficial dose is 600 mcg of chromium and 2 mg of biotin once daily. The studied brand: Diachrome ($25 for a two-month supply, at drugstores).

Here are some links with information I also found on this subject.

There were more links - just Google Diachrome. Thoughts and comments please.
