Found Something.
Posted: 08-02-06 15:57pm

Http://www.Findarticles.Com/p/articl es/mi_m0860/is_n10_v51/ai_7957277

ive was taking brewers yeast but stopped over a month ago, just because it was so horrible and didnt think it was important to recovery. I guess I was wrong. Anyone have success with the "dimethyl glycine" and "chromium?" im getting back on brewers yeast immediatly and gonna do more research on "dimethyl glycine."

while im on topic anyone heard of any up and coming permanent cures for hypoglycemia? Ive heard of stem cells being a possible cure but who knows if they will even pass the use of stem cells.

Please erase one of these I have no idea why its double posting.

Brewers yeast: I believe stan and a few others also take brewers yeast. I make a smoothie with mine. (plain yogurt & fruit)

chromium piccolinate: my doctor suggested I take it when I was first diagnosed. I was taking 200 mcgs.

Helps balance blood sugar levels. Chromium picolinate is a combination of chromium with picolinic acid, a natural chelator that promotes absorption of certain minerals. Chromium's main function is to help insulin transport glucose from the blood into cells, for energy. It also plays a part in the metabolization of protein, fats and carbohydrates.

I would like to point out that my doctor still recommends it but after my latest relapse, I became wary of taking it because it made me feel edgy. But, at the time, everything made me feel edgy ;) so, now that my symptoms have subsided, I plan on taking it again. Just waiting for my next doctor's visit so he can tell me how many mcgs to take. (though, the standard is 200 mcgs).

Sorry, I don't know anything about dimethyl glycine.

I have some brewers yeast it doesnt list the chromium on the back label but im guessing its just in all brewers yeast. Does the stuff your taking list chromium on the back label?

Mine does. But yours may just not list it. You may be able to find this information on line if you search for the company and product information.

My brewer's yeast (twinlabs) does have chromium in it. But i'm not sure if they all do. Following stan's advice might be the best way to know for sure.
