Jeff,
STOP THE CHROMIUM (Brewers Yeast). It LOWERS BLOOD SUGAR! It should be gi=
ven with
diabetes but NOT with insulinoma.
Sorry about shouting but I don't want a crash to happen.
Notice it given for diabetes in vet posts like:

HERE IS ONE OF THE FERRET VET QUOTES: BEGIN
3) What about chromium? Chromium or brewer's yeast has insulin
like activity and can help lower the glucose level. A suggested dose
of chromium is 20-200 mcg/ day, divided and mixed in with the food.
