Zusammenfassung:	Serum glucose, insulin, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglycerides, urinary chromium and creatinine concentrations were assessed in 30 adults (Mean age=52 yrs) with a mean total cholesterol concentration of 236 mg/dL. Three groups of 10 participants were supplemented with 9 g (15 ug chromium) brewer's yeast (BY), with 50 ug chromium as chromium chloride (CrCl 3) or with placebo (control) for twelve weeks. Fasting blood samples were obtained at 0, 6, and 12 weeks. Serum total cholesterol declined significantly in the CrCl 3 group (p
