Ultramicroelements for Humans

The concentration of ultramicroelements, also called nanoelements, in the body is very small (less than 20 μg). However, these elements, like trace elements, are part of enzyme systems as coenzymes (activators and catalysts of biochemical processes).
Ultramicroelements (or nanoelements) include elements whose concentration: 10^–6–10^–12%, daily intake does not exceed 20 mcg.
ULTRAMICROELEMENTS – beryllium, bismuth, tungsten, gallium, gold, cadmium, arsenic, mercury, lead, silver, antimony, thallium, titanium, cesium, zirconium, etc.:

• beryllium damages cell membranes; even a small amount of beryllium in the bones leads to their softening;
• tungsten reduces the level of uric acid in the body and can be effective in gout;
• bismuth affects the formation of the “tan pigment” – melanin – and participates in the processes of ossification;
• gallium is part of the membranes of erythrocytes and is a constant component of the blood, accelerates the speed of blood flow, promotes the outflow of blood from peripheral vessels, prevents the formation of blood clots;
• gold in small doses gold is effective in diseases characteristic of the aging body – atherosclerosis, osteochondrosis, periodontitis, deforming arthritis, hypertension, liver diseases, depressive states;
• cadmium is an immunotoxic ultra-microelement, but in small doses it stimulates growth;
• arsenic – the main weapon of poisoners since ancient times – is currently known as a regulator of phosphorus metabolism, and in the animal body, a small excess of arsenic in the diet causes abnormal fecundity, which is characterized by a significant increase in sexual activity and fertility;
• mercury plays a regulatory role in biochemical reactions through interaction with sulfhydryl groups of proteins, and in the form of mercury dichloride can serve as a highly effective multifaceted immunomodulator and, possibly, a potential antitumor agent;
• lead – the main pollutant (contaminant) of the environment, but in the human body it participates in the metabolic processes of bone tissue and hematopoiesis;
• silver is a metal that is effective against 650 types of bacteria that do not develop resistance to it (unlike almost all antibiotics), as well as against many protozoa (flagellates, ciliates) and a number of viruses, and has a pronounced bactericidal, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and astringent effect;
• antimony is similar in action to arsenic, but arsenic preparations are more difficult to absorb from the gastrointestinal tract, and arsenic has a more pronounced local effect, causing severe vomiting of reflex origin;
• thallium causes hair loss due to impaired keratin synthesis, leading to functional disorders of the nervous system;
• titanium is one of the most biologically inert metals for the human body, but titanium dioxide nanoparticles, which can now be found everywhere – from cosmetics and sunscreens to dyes and vitamins – cause systemic genetic changes: they cause single- and double-stranded DNA breaks, damage chromosomes, which increases the risk of cancer;
• cesium is effective in cases of a sharp decrease in blood pressure (fainting, shock, collapse);
• the role of zirconium is associated with the regulation of the pancreas, and its deficiency can lead to diabetes.
