Chelation Therapy is an FDA-approved solution that can treat mercury, lead, and other types of metal. It was first discovered in the 1950s and has proven to reduce the risks of heart disease, control high inflammation and cholesterol levels, cognitive disorders, etc. What causes heavy metal poisoning? Factors such as having a tattoo, breathing polluted air, drinking contaminated water, and ingesting lead particles can cause metal poisoning. In addition, some diseases and other conditions such as Wilson’s disease, hemochromatosis, and chronic kidney disease can also induce metal poisoning. This treatment can improve your heart and vessel health by using heavy metal testing to detox impurities from your system and reduce plaques in your veins and arteries.
Chelation Therapy is a treatment that extracts heavy metals from your blood, including:
- Lead
- Arsenic
- Mercury
- Iron
- Copper
- Nickel
The Treatment
A natural solution consisting of amino acids and other vitamins is administered intravenously (IV). The amino acid works by binding salts and molecules (toxic heavy metals) in the blood. The chelation agent complies with the body and is flushed out through urine. We’ll inject the amino acid using an IV within a vein on the hand or arm. The procedure takes several hours to complete. Most patients get minimal downtime and recovery period. You may resume your daily routine after treatment.
