The story of EDTA chelation therapy (Ethylene Diamine Tetra-ascetic Acid - ED) is as much political as it is medical. Consider these facts:
- EDTA chelation may be one of the most effective, least expensive, and safest treatments for heart disease ever developed, yet it is practiced by perhaps only 2,000 physicians in the United States.
- EDTA chelation is not typically covered by medical insurance, even though insurance companies would save billions of dollars each year if they did.
- Although they save far more lives than conventional treatments for heart disease and other chronic degenerative diseases at a fraction of the cost, physicians who practice and promote EDTA chelation for these uses have been harassed, vilified, smeared, and, in some cases, driven from their profession by powerful medical societies and government agencies that practice and promote conventional medical treatments.
What Is EDTA Chelation?
EDTA chelation is a therapy by which repeated administrations of a weak
synthetic amino acid (EDTA, ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid) gradually
reduce atherosclerotic plaque and other mineral deposits throughout the
cardiovascular system by literally dissolving them away.
