How is chelation given?

Each visit, you sit in a reclining chair and follow a procedure invariably the same for all of the treatments.

The physician or nurse acts as "intravenous technician" and attaches a disposable infusion set to the prepared bottle of EDTA solution.

An extension tube set and a small vein needle are added. The technician fills the tubing with fluid to expel all the air present.

A strip of white adhesive tape is affixed alongside the bottle’s graduated markings. When the infusion begins the technician writes down the time the bottle should empty to each successive 100cc mark.

Each bottle in your series of infusions is numbered in that way to be sure it doesn’t go in too fast and thus possibly give you less benefit.

"The patient enjoys a good book during his customary 3-4 hour infusion of EDTA.
The infusion bottle hangs above and is connected by tubing to a tiny needle in the patient's right arm. He can stand and stretch his legs or carry the bottle with him to the rest room as the need arises".

Some Additional Effects of Chelation Therapy:

The late Carlos P. Lamar, M.D., F.I.C.A., one of the original pioneers of calcium chelation in atherosclerosis, had described the reduction of calcification in the aorta. There was also simultaneous recalcification of previously osteoporotic vertebral and femoral bones. Osteoporosis is a porous condition characterized by scanty, thin, and reduced skeletal tissue. Dr. Lamar mentioned seeing improved joint function as arthritic joint calcium deposits are decreased. For that reason, symptoms of arthritis are frequently dissipated by the treatment. The deformity in a joint may remain, but mobility returns and pain goes away.

Another advantageous side effect of the chelation mechanism, the strengthening of bones and teeth, can be explained in this way: As reversal of hardening of the arteries takes place, bones and teeth get stronger. Metastatic calcium that may have been avoided being grasped by the chelation claw goes into reinforcing existing bone under the parathormone-induced osteoblastic effect. Hardened arteries get softer and softened bones and teeth should get harder following proper EDTA chelation therapy where appropriate mineral supplementation with zinc, magnesium, and other minerals is being given, dietary calcium phosphorus ratio is balanced, and active exercise is undertaken."
