Abstract: | Chromium content of 22 daily diets, designed by nutritionists to be well-balanced, ranged from 8.4 to 23.7 μg/1000 cal with
a mean ±SEM chromium content of 13.4±1.1 μg/1000 cal. Most dairy products are low in chromium and provide <0.6μg/serving.
Meats, poultry, and fish are also low in chromium, providing 2 μg of chromium or less per serving. Chromium contents of grain
products, fruits, and vegetables vary widely, with some foods providing >20 μg/serving. In summary, chromium content of individual
foods varies, and is dependent upon chromium introduced in the growing, transport, processing, and fortification of the food.
Even well-balanced diets may contain suboptimal levels of dietary chromium. |
