Chromium

Short answer

We found no documented interaction between Probiotic and Chromium in the sources below. That isn't proof the combination is right for you: check each one's cautions, and ask your pharmacist if you take medication.

Probiotic

What it is: Live microorganisms, mostly bacteria, that may benefit health when taken in large enough amounts. They work mainly in the gut.

What the research says: Effects depend on the specific strain, and many probiotic products haven't been studied.

Cautions

  • Probiotics have a long record of safe use; healthy people may get some gas.
  • They may not be safe for people who are seriously ill or have a weakened immune system.

Chromium

What it is: A mineral found in many foods that may help the body use carbohydrates, fats and protein.

What the research says: Studies on blood sugar are mixed. The American Diabetes Association doesn't recommend it because it has no clear benefit.

Cautions

  • No harm has been shown, but research is limited. People with kidney or liver disease should be careful with high amounts.

Medicines to check

  • Insulin, metformin and other diabetes medicines: chromium may push blood sugar too low
  • Levothyroxine (thyroid medicine): chromium may reduce how much is absorbed
