CHELATION NAYSAYERS OUT IN FULL FORCE

There is a whole lot of flap going around about the worthlessness and downright danger of Chelation Therapy. Deaths attributed to chelation are cited. Ineffectiveness and downright quackery are claimed. In their desperation to discredit this safe, highly effective procedure, the conflicting commercial interests dug around until they found a case where a patient died while undergoing chelation by being administered the wrong drug! Now that is a real stretch.
What has this to do with chelation? Patients are killed in hospitals every day by being administered the wrong drug! It happens all the time, and as long as the family can be billed for it, what's the harm? Suddenly a single case out of millions makes the headlines. Any of the other arguments against chelation can be just as easily blown away like smoke in the wind.

Some government studies of chelation have recently been dropped. Why? Could it possibly be that the results were pointing the wrong way? They set out to prove that chelation was worthless and were disappointed when the data came in. Really! Would our government do that to US?

HERE'S SOMETHING INTERESTING. THE MAYO CLINIC HAS POSTED AN ARTICLE PANNING CHELATION AND ON THE SAME PAGE THEY'RE RUNNING
A BIG BANNER AD FOR - I bet you guessed it - CRESTOR!

Claims have been made that chelation can cause hypocalcemia and renal failure. True! But easily avoided. Every chelating physician knows of this and other dangers involved with IV Chelation Therapy and takes painstaking precautions to avoid any negative events. Chelating physicians are very aware that the eyes of the surgery business are upon them and any slip up will result in the wolves howling on their thresholds, demanding an end to the procedure that is keeping millions of dollars from reaching their pockets.

A good, unbiased article on chelation can be found at http://www.blueshieldca.com. They tell you what they know, which is limited. As far as it goes, the article is accurate.

One caveat! There are a lot of oral chelation products cropping up all over the place, all claiming miraculous benefits available with their use, without the need for a doctor and the inconvenience of IV infusions. On this subject we say, watch out!

One product currently being pushed is composed of 100% EDTA. This is most definitely something to keep away from unless it's been prescribed by your doctor. EDTA is nothing to fool around with on your own!

There are a lot of natural, everyday and readily available foods, vitamins, and minerals that are highly effective chelating agents, the lowly garlic being one of them. EDTA is not an absolutely necessary component for effective chelation provided you have the extra time it will take to clear your arteries. For prevention and long term clearing, given the luxury of time, it is actually best to stay away from EDTA. One product we know of that gives outstanding results and is entirely safe is a product called Cardio-Klenz, available here. Visit this very responsible manufacturer of what is arguably the finest line of supplements available anywhere.
