Ion is a new generation, soil-derived supplement that promotes an optimal gut environment. It is not a probiotic. It is not a prebiotic. Rather, it is a carbon-rich, alkaline liquid, comprised of Terrahydrite™, a proprietary formulation of Aqueous Humic Substances and trace mineral amino acid complexes. Ion has been shown in lab testing to increase and strengthen the tight junction proteins in the gut lining, our frontline of defense against environmental factors in our food, water, and even air, thereby impacting the immune system, as much of the body’s immune system is in the gut lining. Additionally, a stronger gut lining keeps undigested food and environmental elements, such as herbicides and antibiotics used in farming, from leaking out into the bloodstream from the intestines, so the immune system does not have to defend against these foreign “invaders,” which could also be as simple as undigested kale or broccoli. Ion helps protect your gut from threats such as stress, gluten, glyphostate, chemicals like herbicides and pesticides, and environmental impacts. If you consider yourself “sensitive” or have gut or auto immune conditions: Results vary with initial Ion usage, with many customers reporting rapid and profound early results of the supplement. These clinical results are not the direct effects of the supplement, but instead reflect the innate healing process that occurs in a body as the firewall system is optimally up and running. For many, this is an improvement in mental clarity and sensory processing in as little as hours or days of first use. There is a subset of individuals, however, that can experience symptoms of tiredness, headache, bloating/increased gas, or bowel changes including constipation and greenish loose stool. Does Ion Biome cause detox? The clinical spectrum of signs and symptoms that have been attributed to the word detox are vast. The term is poorly understood by doctors and patients, and it is often unclear if it is to be regarded as a good thing or something to be feared. If we consider the full term — detoxification — we can bring some clarity to the process. The need to remove toxins from the body is part of the body’s natural lines of defense, and a healthy body has vast mechanisms for toxin removal. Many people starting Ion Biome have noted almost immediate signs of toxin clearance from the body. Urine, sweat, breath, and skin, in the case of mineral foot baths, can all reveal toxin clearance. This is the result of the extremely rapid changes in the tight junction integrity as Ion Biome promotes functional tight junctions in the gut, blood vessels, kidney tubules, etc. To be clear, Ion Biome does not detoxify anything. The body’s natural systems, once back online with intelligent membranes, produce all the natural detoxification pathways. If tight junction repair throughout the system is the reason for the mobilization of toxins and subsequent removal (detoxification) from the body, there is no redistribution of the toxin to other tissues. The toxins are instead trafficked to appropriate clearance sites of urine, breath, and sweat. We are excited for you to experience normal physiologic detoxification. How Long to Take Ion Biome You should take Ion Biome as long as you are getting exposure to those environmental factors known to impact the tight junctions in the gut, including gluten, glyphosate, and antibiotics. Healthy (especially organic and non-GMO) and gluten-free foods are great; avoiding exposure to glyphosate is the bigger challenge, as it has been shown to be contaminating even our rainwater. As with most supplements, you can expect to receive benefit as long as you are taking Ion Biome, and for a residual period afterwards. Benefits Ion Biom is designed to: + Balance gut health + Support respiratory wellness + Combat environmental exposures + Promote immune function + Enhance mental clarity + Promote hydration. + Helps support mitochondria that might be responding to an acute inflammatory event to help reduce oxidative stress + Diversify gut bacteria + Shown to create a beneficial shift in the bacteria making up the microbiome, to be more diverse, produce more probiotics and produce more alkaline species + Carbon-based redox molecules from ancient fossilized soil help restore the communication network between bacteria in the gut, mitochondria, and cells in the body How is Ion Biome different from a probiotic? Optimally, a healthy digestive tract contains 20,000 – 30,000 different strains of good gut bacteria. Simply taking a probiotic to continuously address a complex health challenge can actually lead to a lack of bacteria diversity in the gut. This low microbial diversity can impact your health. How is Ion Biome different from probiotic products? Ion Biome is unique in that it enhances the diversity of the gut bacteria by making the gut environment more friendly to the different strains of good gut bacteria or flora, and a typical probiotic is only comprised of between 3 to 30 different bacterial species. Ion Biome is the first dietary supplement that delivers a balanced family of bacterial metabolites to promote a healthy firewall of tight junctions in the gut wall and blood/brain barrier. Ion provides the communication network to support the return of biodiversity to the gut ecosystem that supports normal immune function. How to Use Consume 1 teaspoon (5ml) 3 times a day. For kids and people with gut issues: We recommend doubling usage weekly until a maintenance usage of 25 drops (1/4 teaspoon for under age 2) or 100 drops (1 teaspoon for over age 2) 3 times a day, before or with meals, is established. Ingredients Disclaimer: In compliance with the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) regulations of the supplement industry, Ion Biome has not been evaluated or approved to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. We are prohibited from speaking directly about specific disease conditions. We recommend that you refer to your healthcare provider to discuss your specific health concerns and the role of Ion in your health.
