Why is your product cheaper than other indium products on the market?
|
|
From the very
beginning we decided to invest in knowledge and technology rather than
costly, traditional marketing strategies. Our goal is not to
aggressively solicit customers. We don't spam, we don't send junk mail,
we don't air infomercials, we don't even advertise in magazines.
Instead, we use the power of the internet to help customers to find us.
This allows us to avoid unnecessary costs and operate on a shoe string
budget. We started by determining the profit we needed to make on one
indium unit, then researched ways to minimize the cost of delivering
that unit to the customer. This simple method is how we set the price
of our products. We believe that this approach is both fair to our
customers and beneficial for us. |

We have been
asked this question many times. Some people simply cannot believe that
we can lower our price without cheating them in some way. Well the
answer is yes. Our product is diluted when compared to some other
indium products on the market. Some vendors offer indium in a
concentrated solution that is three to four times stronger than ours.
But is our product inferior because it is "diluted"? No. What really
counts is how much pure elemental indium you put in each unit. We can
guarantee that each 1/2 oz. bottle of indium we sell contains 1g of
indium sulfate, or 444 mg of elemental indium. This is exactly the same
amount other manufacturers claim is in their bottles. So why do we
"dilute" indium? To facilitate application. The daily dose we recommend
is 2 to 4 drops daily depending on your mineral balance
and indium sensitivity - thus some people only need to take 2 drops
daily. If they were using concentrated indium they would have to
measure out half a drop! We don't find this to be very convenient.

The indium
sulfate we dissolve in distilled water comes with a certificate of
99.99% purity meaning that all combined contaminants amount to no more
than 100 ppm (parts per million).
When we make a batch of Indium-APW we send a sample to the independent
laboratory for testing.
Here you can check
the latest results. We do it to screen our product for possible
contamination with heavy metals.
The results show that the four drops of indium you might take daily
contain far less lead, mercury or cadmium than you would find in just
one sip of tap water. It is wiser to watch the purity of the water you
drink than the purity of your indium supplement. |

Indium is a
mineral and as such cannot be patented. It is true, however, that Mr.
George Bonadio
obtained a U.S. patent for his "Methods for administering nutritional
indium." However, when we researched the subject we found that the
premises of the patent's claims have no credible scientific support.
Mr. Bonadio believes that indium does not appear in the food chain and
needs to be treated very specially, as his method recommends, in order
to be absorbed. However, when we examined the data we found traces of
indium everywhere, both in organic and inorganic matter. The mice in
Schroeder's famous experiment that serve as a foundation of Mr.
Bonadio's claims were not taking indium on the tips of their tongues,
nor did they wait to brush their teeth for 10 minutes. They were
absorbing indium from their drinking water and freely mixing it with
the food. Also, please see our disclaimer regarding the patten issue
here (http://indiumforlife.com/disclaimer.htm). |

How should I take indium?
|
|
For best absorption,
take indium before you eat. Most of the absorption occurs in the mouth
so don't be overly concerned with the contents of your stomach. Drops
are perfectly OK but spraying is even better. |
|
Nobody knows.
We do, however, have many educated guesses. Indium is a mineral, so we
expect it to work in ways similar to other minerals. One thing to keep
in mind about minerals is that they never work in isolation. That's why
supplementing your diet with isolated minerals is a road full of
unexpected frustrations and health risks. The power of indium is
probably best explained not by what it does to your body but what it
allows other minerals to do to your body. One cannot overlook the
important fact that indium appears to facilitate absorption of many,
very important essential minerals. This phenomenon is not unique to
indium. Other minerals exhibit this property as well, although none of
them as strongly as indium does.
To take full
advantage of indium's potency make sure that your diet contains those
other minerals as well. I recommend the very cheap and safe method of
taking one teaspoonful of black molasses daily, but only if you can
tolerate the extra sugar you take with it.

How long does a bottle last?
|
|
A 1/2 oz.
bottle, which comes equipped with an eyedropper, contains approximately
350 drops. If you take 4 drops a day the bottle should last about 87
days, or almost 3 months. A 1 oz bottle equipped with an atomizer will
produce approximately 180 sprays. It will therefore last 6 months,
since one spray is equivalent to 4 drops with a great deal of accuracy.

One measure of
mineral safety is its known toxicity. With this respect Indium is
remarkably safe and gives us no reason to be concerned. Another measure
of safety is its interaction with other minerals. In this respect,
indium is essentially very good but we have to be a little cautious
here. What is good for one person maybe not so good for another if
those individuals
differ in their mineral requirements. And remember that indium is toxic
intravenously. Avoid contact with open wounds or cuts, as well as with
your eyes, and keep it out of the reach of children. |
|
Why should I buy from your company?
|
|
We offer our
product at a good price and also provide quality assurance. A sample
from each batch of indium that we make is sent to an independent
laboratory for testing. The test
results are posted on our website. We are serious not only about
making money but also about research and knowledge. |
|
Why don't you back up your product with unconditional guarantee like
some other companies do?
|
|
We think these
"unconditional guarantees" are little more than publicity stunts. It is
rare that a nutritional supplement works for everyone and for every
illness imaginable. Instead, we offer an affordable price and an $8
sample for those who just want to try the product. |
