    Chromium is a trace mineral that was discovered by Louis-Nicholas Vaquelin. It gets its name from the Greek word for "color". Chromium is needed in very small amounts by the body and a deficiency can result in diabetes. South Africa is the largest producer of chromium in the world. The three forms of chromium are chromium O, chromium III, and chromium VI. Chromium is important for breaking down fats and carbohydrates and small amounts of chromium III are needed in the human body. It is most concentrated in the placenta. Chromium deficiency is not a widespread problem.
