Hello Roger,
Thank you for coming by. Green Tea can be drank throughout the day, in place of other drinks like coffee, sodas or juices.
The important thing to remember is that, a part from the green tea an individual needs to drink at least 2 litres of water per day, which helps to eliminate toxins from the body and keeps the cells replenished and out of danger of de-hydrating. It keeps the skin looking fresh and radiant as well.
Chromium is a mineral supplement which can be taken daily in capsules. It helps to balance out blood sugar levels, therefore it stabalises hunger pangs and reduces cravings for food. It, also helps to protect the RNA and DNA, which is essential for the heart.
Although there is no real RDA established, Chromium becomes toxic at doses higher than 1000mg per day ... the standard capsules or tablets on sale in supermarkets and drug stores contain well below this quantity.
Please Note - For Chromium to work efficiently an individual needs to reduce, or cut out, refined sugars and flours, additives and processed foods and, also, needs to take up a regular exercise program, as the exertion helps Chromium absorption. Otherwise you could be throwing money down the drain.
Also, being exposed to petroleum products and/or toxic metals will deplete the Chromium reserves.
Take care and best wishes
