Has anybody here had problems with taking Chromium? No matter what dose (100mcg or 200mcg) or which product line I get it from (whole foods vs straight chemical) I suffer from neck and upper back pain..mostly neck. My neck stiffens up. I like how it helps me lose weight but my neck is killing me. I have called Nutrition 21, the people who make it but they say they have never had any feed back like this. My sister has this same problem and my partner. Does anyone have any insight?

The only chromium forms I will ever use are polynicotinate or if unavailable, picolinate. I personally find that the GTF version does absolutely nothing in terms of weight loss or blood sugar stabilization. I have never had stiff necks or back pain from either of these products.I've been taking either form (not both together, lol,) for 5 years. The drawback is that they are more expensive than the plain old GTF.
