There was a big thread on this on ASDUK a while back.

There were some problems associated with Chromium Picolinate (what I fail to
remember) and the choice was Chromium GTF (this is a product name not a
measurement). General concensus is that unless you have a definate
deficiency in Chromium (and there is no reason why you should have) you need
not buy supplements. You are far better off getting all the chromium your
body needs (not very much either) from a healthy diet. I think Chromium is
often found in fish and green veggies. As a diabetic you know to make sure
you eat lots of veggies as they rarely impact blood sugar badly and you can
eat loads of them with no ill effects.

There is data to be found on this all the same. I did find some but binned
it when I found out about the two types of product and decided not to waste
my hard earned money.
