Chelation Therapy

Chelation Therapy is a very safe, clinically effective medical treatment that has been in use for over 40 years. It involves a chelating agent called EDTA, an amino acid complex that binds to toxic heavy metals in the body. EDTA also binds to ionic calcium such as the type found in plaque. EDTA Chelation is given intravenously. After a physical evaluation and laboratory analysis the amount of treatments necessary is determined. Typically Chelation therapy is used for circulatory disorders such as: heart disease, claudication, and carotid artery disease. Many articles have been published and many books have been written about the benefits of Chelation therapy including one by: Elmer Cranton, M.D., a cardiologist, called “Bypassing Bypass Surgery”.
