Al-Marsad Newspaper: Health reports revealed the benefits of chromium and the foods in which it is present due to its importance in lowering triglyceride levels, increasing beneficial cholesterol, and improving insulin sensitivity in people with diabetes.
Chromium, a rare mineral, helps improve cardiovascular health, supports weight loss and brain health, and works on the body’s breakdown of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats.
Chromium is found in the following foods:
grape juice
The “Healthline” website, which specializes in health issues, stated that grape juice is an excellent source of chromium, provided that you stay away from drinks that contain added sugar due to its negative effects on health.
Whole wheat flour
Eating whole-wheat products helps you add more chromium to your diet. For example, a medium-sized slice (36 grams) of whole-wheat bread provides 1 microgram of chromium.
orange juice
One cup (240 ml) of orange juice provides 2.2 micrograms of chromium, or 6 percent of the daily requirement for this mineral, and 90 percent of the daily value for vitamin C.
green beans
A half-cup (73-gram) serving of green beans provides 1.1 micrograms of chromium.
Beef
Animal proteins, especially beef, are good sources of chromium, with an 85-gram serving providing 2 micrograms of the mineral.
