For other uses, see Chromium (disambiguation). Chromium is a chemical element with symbol Cr and atomic number 24. It is the first element in Group 6. It is a steely-grey, lustrous, hard and brittle metal which takes a high polish, resists tarnishing, and has a high melting point.
Chromium is a trace mineral that is found in very small amounts in the human body. Scientists believe that it helps insulin bring glucose into the cells for energy, performing an important metabolic task. Because of this, many researchers believe that chromium can be helpful in reducing blood sugar in cases of Type 2 diabetes.
