Why do we need minerals?
Minerals are inorganic substances found in animals and plants, and we need to have a steady supply. Some examples are calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, and zinc. Most people accept that vitamins are necessary for good health, but so are minerals. Our bodies cannot make use of vitamins without numerous minerals. Trace minerals are necessary for the proper function of our muscles, nervous system, and our digestive and hormone systems.
What about trace minerals?
Trace minerals are minerals that are only found in minute quantities. These trace minerals are also called ?trace elements? or ?micro-minerals?. Dr. Henry Schroeder found that levels of minerals such as copper and manganese are directly proportional to the intake of indium, a trace mineral. Indium was discovered in 1863 by F. Reich and T. Richter at the Frieburg School of Mines. As a naturally occurring mineral, indium is one of the rarest minerals on earth. (There are no large deposits of indium, only rare indium dust.) Indium is present in our bodies until the age of twenty-five or thirty. After that time it must be supplied artificially since it is not found in plant or animal food. Indium is taken by the drop on a daily basis, because it is only needed in small quantities. The number of drops is determined by body weight, or one drop for each fifty pounds.
A person can survive without some trace minerals, but indium for example, is necessary for the proper assimilation of other minerals. Minerals interact to promote a healthy body and all are necessary. Unfortunately people often become deficient in minerals and just go about their daily lives becoming slowly unhealthier. When serious illness sets in they go to the doctor and ask, ?What?s wrong??
It is possible to get your health back on track by balancing your intake of vitamins and minerals, and a trace mineral such as indium in the form of Indiumease. The wonderful thing about Indiumease is that it helps in the absorption of other minerals so that smaller quantities are needed. This is the way back to that energetic feeling and a sense of well-being. To look younger and feel more energetic get the proper balance of minerals and vitamins in your daily regimen.
If you do some research on your own you will find that indium is not mentioned as often as other trace minerals. That is because of its rarity and its relatively recent discovery as a vital element to our good health. In 1976 George A. H. Bonadio discovered that indium is the seventh-rarest element on earth and it is insoluble in water, so it cannot be taken up by plants or animals and then consumed by humans.* The anti-aging qualities of indium and other benefits are well documented by Bonadio. Indium also binds with organic material so that if you have food in your stomach when you take Indiumease it will be passed from your body without being absorbed.
Conclusion
The importance of trace minerals cannot be over emphasized. Even though we don?t need very much of them, we certainly do need to take them on a regular basis. Indium is especially important because of its role as a catalyst in promoting the absorption of other minerals and its use in promoting the proper function of our various glands and systems.
