1. The chromium in the diets of lactating Finnish mothers and of their breast milk was determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption. 2.

Cr intake of the lactating mothers did not correlate with the corresponding breast milk Cr concentration. 4. The diets and the breast milk of these Finnish mothers were lower in Cr than those of any other population studied in the world.
