Circulation |
|
|
|
Every day your heart pumps 1,900 gallons of blood through the 100,000 miles of living pipes that make up your circulatory system. Over the course of your life, your heart will pump some 2 billion times moving 48 million gallons of blood through your arteries, capillaries and veins. Unfortunately, heart attacks are the leading cause of death in America. Toxins, infections, stress, poor diet and the effects of aging cause the arteries to become brittle and filled with plaque, and blood to thicken and become harder to move. If you are suffering from circulatory disturbances or simply want to increase and maintain your vitality, then ask your doctor if chelation is right for you.

Aluminum |
|
|
|
Aluminum can be found in drinking water, anti-perspirants, baking powders, feminine hygiene products, cow and soy milk, baby formula, antacids, and of course aluminum foil, pots and pans. It accumulates in the skin, bones, brain and kidneys and can cause Alzheimer’s and Parkinsons disease. EDTA has been scientifically proven to bind to and remove aluminum from the body.

Lead |
|
 |
Lead is found in cosmetics, plastics, batteries, gasoline, insecticides, pottery glaze, soldered pipes, and paint. Lead accumulates in the brain, liver, kidneys and bones. For each 30 mcg of lead in a child’s blood, his or her IQ drops 10 points. EDTA has been scientifically proven to bind to and remove lead from the body.

Nickel |
|
|
|
Nickel is found in stainless steel cutlery, pots and pans, coins, dental fillings and batteries. It accumulates in the bones, kidneys, liver, lungs, immune system and the brain where it can cause genetic damage and cancer. EDTA has been scientifically proven to bind to and remove nickel from the body. Data regarding heavy metals taken from: Toxicology of Metals. Edited by Louis Chang, 1996. |
Arsenic |
|
 |
Arsenic is found in cigarette smoke, laundry detergents, beer, seafood, commercial poultry and drinking water. It can cause headaches, confusion and sleepiness. It can damage the kidneys liver, and lungs. EDTA has been scientifically proven to bind to and remove arsenic from the body. Data regarding heavy metals taken from: Toxicology of Metals.

Uranium |
|
 |
Uranium is a radioactive element that eventually disintegrates into lead. There have been over 2,000 nuclear detonations on our planet since Hiroshima casting uranium into our atmosphere. Additionally, events like Three Mile Island and Chernobyl add uranium to our environment. Radioactive materials can cause cancer and birth defects. EDTA has been scientifically proven to bind to and remove uranium from the body. Data regarding heavy metals taken from: Toxicology of Metals. Edited by Louis Chang, 1996. |
Copper |
|
 |
170 million women worldwide have copper IUD’s. They work by releasing copper into the uterus but the copper doesn’t stay in the uterus, it goes everywhere. The effects of copper poisoning include fatigue, low blood pressure, anemia, panic attacks, brain fog, insomnia, headaches and a sense of slowly going mad. These symptoms show up slowly so many women never realize how copper is affecting them. People can also get copper toxicity from copper pipes, copper fungicides and copper cookware. EDTA can bind to and remove copper. Data regarding heavy metals taken from: Toxicology of Metals. Edited by Louis Chang, 1996. |
Calcification |
|
 |
As we age we accumulate calcium in the soft tissues of the body. Joints, brain, prostate, breast, kidneys, skin, arteries, muscles, all calcify and disease processes and inflammation accelerate this process. A calcium free EDTA may support the body in resolving this ‘dystrophic’ calcium. |
Barium |
|
 |
Barium compounds are found in soaps, ceramics, paper, glass, plastics, textiles, dyes, fuel additives, rubber, paint and pesticides. Barium toxicity can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. |
Mercury |
|
 |
Every ‘silver’ filling releases up to 17 mcg of mercury every day. This increases to 500 mcg with the smoking of cigarettes, drinking hot liquids, gum chewing, acidic saliva or the grinding of teeth at night. Mercury accumulates in the brain, heart, kidneys and endocrine glands and can cause depression, auto-immune diseases, memory loss, tremors, anemia and heart attacks. An issue with mercury chelators (DMPS, DMSA and EDTA) is that they can release chelated mercury in exchange for other metals such as Cr2+ or Fe3+ for which they have a stronger affinity, leading to redeposition. While EDTA is the least problematic of the three, this is still a consideration. If you have a high mercury load, call us and ask about our Mercury Detox Protocol. |
Caution: If you have high mercury levels, EDTA would be contraindicated. Call us about our Mercury Detox Program.
EDTA can lower zinc, copper, calcium and manganese. If you are low in any of these minerals or plan on taking more than one box of medicardium, consider supplementing with these four minerals 24 hours after taking a suppository, the wait 12 hours before your next suppository.
