Unscientific twaddle.  Indium?  That's such a minuscule part of the diet that I've never heard of it as a nutritional supplement even.  This is not a randomised, double-blind study; its sample size seems to be a few athletes, its not published in a peer-reiewed publication, the explanation is wishy-washy and uses pseudo-scientific babble.  Take it from someone with a health research masters – if this stuff has any beneficial effect it has not been proven, and is most likely only benefitting those with poor nutritional status.  I call it quackery.

Bravo, sir, bravo. Now what we need is for you to go out and educate all the science journalists in the world, to try and avoid this kind of bullpoop ever littering our papers/Internet/magazines again!

Thanks Fonk – I got the feel for junk science from New Scientist.

Heh, sounds like an old Victor Conte sales pitch…
