Chelation Therapy

Chelation Therapy is a process involving a series of intravenous injections of an amino acid complex called EDTA (ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid) to remove heavy metals from the body. EDTA binds with mercury, copper, lead, and other metals and removes them from the blood. Chelation therapy can be used for heavy metal poisoning and for treating heart conditions such as atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries.
