It is a natural process found in the very essence of life itself. Examples of which are, chlorophyll, a molecule ubiquitous to the plant world containing chelated magnesium, and hemoglobin, the oxygen transporting, red colored pigment, which is a chelate of iron, a molecule essential to the blood of all animals. Depending on their individual need, patients benefit from chelation therapy after receiving 30-50 infusions. This alternative treatment along with a change in diet and lifestyle will reverse arterial disease and increase blood flow to compromised organs. The dependence on medication decreases and the quality of life improves.
Chelation therapy is relatively safe providing kidney function is normal.
In the rare instances where kidney function is compromised, the Chelation treatment is given in lower, or slower and less frequent doses. The risk of serious side effects, when administered properly, is approximately 1 in 10,000 patients. Minor side effects that might occur such as, slight nausea, dizziness, or headache, last only temporarily. However, most patients do not experience any of these side effects. Diseases such as coronary artery disease, cardiovascular disease, peripheral vascular disease and cerebrovascular disease are the major causes of disability and death today.
