Product Description
Indium, a rare mineral that was discovered in the late 1800s, has been gaining popularity as a health supplement in recent years.
Indium is believed to enhance nutrient absorption, improve cellular metabolism, balance hormones, and boost the immune system. While research on indium as a health supplement is still in its early stages, preliminary studies have shown promising results.
Here are some of the ways our indium may support human health:
-
Improving Cellular Metabolism: Indium is thought to enhance cellular metabolism by promoting the activity of various enzymes that are involved in metabolic processes. This may lead to an increase in energy production, better use of nutrients, and improved overall health.(2)
-
Enhancing Nutrient Absorption: Indium has been shown to enhance the absorption of various nutrients, including calcium, magnesium, and zinc. This may be due to indium's ability to stimulate the production of stomach acid, which aids in the breakdown and absorption of nutrients.(3)
-
Balancing Hormones: Indium may have a positive effect on hormone balance by stimulating the production of certain hormones, such as growth hormone. This may be beneficial for individuals looking to improve muscle mass, bone density, and overall physical performance.(7)
-
Boosting Immune System: Indium has been shown to enhance the activity of immune cells, such as natural killer cells and lymphocytes. This may help to improve the body's ability to fight off infections and diseases.(1)
Indium, designated as element #49 on the periodic table, is a rare trace mineral not commonly found in the human diet. In the 1960s, Dr. Henry A. Schroeder and his team at Dartmouth Medical School conducted pioneering research to explore indium's potential health benefits. Their studies, published between 1964 and 1973, involved administering indium to mice and observing its effects on growth, lifespan, and mineral absorption. Notably, they discovered that indium supplementation enhanced the absorption of essential trace minerals such as copper, zinc, manganese, and chromium, with increases ranging from 60% to 694%, depending on the organ examined. These findings suggested that indium could play a significant role in improving nutrient uptake and overall health.
Ingredients
Indium 1 mg
How to take: In the morning, having not eaten for at least seven hours, place one drop (or up to 1 drop per 50 lb. bodyweight) on the back of the tongue. Swallow. Do not eat or drink anything for 15 minutes.
Contraindications: Indium's only known contraindication is to REFRAIN FROM USING CREATINE SUPPLEMENTS, because Indium increases the recycling of creatine to a toxic level.

Indium
I've been taking indiumease for several months. I am certain that it lowers my heart rate right after taking it.

Interesting “side effect”
Not certain it’s from the Indium but colors seem to be brighter for me! Has anyone else mentioned this phenomena? ?
