Abstract: A method for preventing and treating a variety of disease states and disorders is provided, comprising the administration of an arginine silicate inositol complex to an individual in the presence of medical therapy or absence of medical therapy. Examples of said disease states and disorders include bone and cartilage disorders and cardiovascular disease and its associated micro and macro vascular complications including infections and inflammation of all these diseases in combination or without. Advantageously, the amount of arginine silicate inositol complex administered per day is between about 2 mg/Kg body weight to 2,500 mg/Kg body weight or from a low dose to a higher dose to observe normal metabolic functions and healthy and the delivery is parenteral, oral or intravenous or topical by solid or liquid or both.

Abstract: A method for treating dyslipidemia and/or post prandial hyperglycemia by administering a combination of a chromium complex and biotin to an individual in need thereof is disclosed. The two compounds are administered orally or parenterally in daily dosages which provide between 25 ?g and 1,000 ?g of chromium and between 25 ?g and 20 mg biotin. A method for reducing the glycemic index of food is similarly provided.

Abstract: A method for inhibiting drug-induced insulin resistance is provided which includes administering a dietary chromium complex to an individual receiving a contemporaneous dose of a drug that induces insulin resistance, wherein the amount of chromium complex administered is an amount effective to inhibit the development of insulin resistance. Advantageously, the amount of chromium complex administered per day is between about 300 and 1,000 micrograms per day. Compositions including a drug which induces insulin resistance in combination with a chromium complex are similarly described.
