Urine chromium

The total amount of chromium in adults is about 6 mg. Chromium is absorbed by the intestines and enters the plasma to bind to the transferrin, transporting the chromium to the liver and the body. Chromium is mainly discharged from the urine. Chromium can increase the breakdown and excretion of cholesterol, lower blood cholesterol, and prevent the formation of arteriosclerosis. Chromium is also an effective component of the glucose tolerance factor (functioning to assist insulin in the use of glucose). Therefore, the chromium content in the body is negatively correlated with the incidence of cardiovascular disease. The protective effect of chromium on cardiovascular is related to its involvement in sugar and lipid metabolism.
