Questions for smart people

In my current vitamin supplement (Avon's Men's Complete) I'm getting 240 mcg of Chromium (as chromium brown rice chelate). This supplement my mom just sent me has 200 mcg of Chromium (as Chromax Chromium Picolinate). Combined, that would give me about 350% of the USRDA of Chromium, in various forms. Do I need to worry about that being too much? Most of the information I see says I shouldn't worry if I'm under a thousand mcg a day. But I'm naturally worrisome.

I should add

Doses up to 800 mcg are used in treating obesity with no known side effects.

Yay! This is definitely comforting news. And maybe it will have some effect on my obesity.

As to supplementation for an anti-obesity program, I have a fairly good listing. Contact me if you want to get into it.
luagha at the yahoo.com is my spam address - bounce me there and I will get you my real address. Which is getting plenty spammed.
