Most basic chemical functions within our body are brought about through the operation of various enzymes and enzyme-like substances. Most enzymes are able to function properly because of certain specific amounts of various trace minerals that are a part of their integral substance. If the trace mineral balance can be altered by various toxic substances in our body and the toxic substances can be removed through chelation, much of the future in medicine may well center on chelation. This work could open large vistas into a wide range of disorders for which both the cause and possible treatment have heretofore been vague or undetermined. Such conditions as the psychotic disorders, the so-called collagenous diseases, and many disorders of metabolism and enzyme deficiencies may be helped by chelation.
All physicians know that their offices are filled with patients with vague and unexplainable ills.
Most of these patients are treated as neurotics and given various tranquilizers or are encouraged to undergo psychotherapy. If chelation can help to re-establish normal enzymatic function, think of what a boon it could be to a large percentage of our population. At present, however, the most immediately encouraging results of chelation are in the various so-called degenerative diseases, for which there have been very few successful therapies. Disorders that Chelation Can Help F ollowing is a list of conditions successfully treated by chelation that has been assembled by physicians who did much of the early research work. This list was made up for physicians, and many of the names may be so much Greek to you.
