an alternative and natural treatment used to enhance a happy and healthy
lifestyle.

Chelation is a chemical reaction in which certain
amino acids bind with some metals. Knowledge of this reaction led
to the development of chelation therapy, which uses this reaction
to remove harmful substances from the body. A substance called ethylenediamenetetraacetic
acid (EDTA) is administered either orally or intravenously, and
is said to bind with heavy metals such as lead or mercury, as well
as calcium, and draw them out of the body, which helps with a number
of medical problems. In particular, the removal of calcium by chelation
is said to be effective against artherosclerosis. Chelation is also
claimed as an effective treatment for osteoarthritis, diabetes,
kidney problems, Alzheimer’s and even cancer prevention.
 While
studies by chelation therapy practitioners have supported their
claims, other studies by doctors in Canada, the U.S., Germany and
Denmark have found that it has little to no benefits to cardiovascular
health, and may in fact exacerbate or even cause health problems
by depleting vital minerals from the body. The results of these
studies are consistent with many natural health and healing treatment
options. What works for one does not always work for the others.
Claims by practitioners that it is a viable alternative to bypass
surgery should be regarded with caution.
