Benefits of EDTA Chelation/Detox
By Dr. Michael W. Roth
Remarkable Benefits of EDTA Chelation
​
EDTA ( EthyleneDiamineTetraAcetic Acid) is a synthetic amino acid related to vinegar. EDTA was developed by the Germans in 1931 to reverse heavy-metal poisoning from the ingestion of lead, mercury, aluminum, cadmium, and more. This page contains several different articles about the effectiveness of EDTA Chelation Therapy for cardiovascular disease.

A search through the medical literature of the past will turn up no less than 1,554 mentions of chelation therapy. Chelation therapy is not a new treatment—it is one of the best guarded secrets known for health improvement.
​
Chelation therapy will remove excessive levels of 13 minerals from your body—lead, mercury, nickel, cadmium, and aluminum—all toxic minerals. It also will remove some good minerals from your body as well—such as chromium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, and calcium. It is important to take mineral supplements to counteract this while on chelation therapy.
​
What happens if you take chelation therapy for several months and your chest pain disappears, you’re able to walk up a mountain, you feel wonderful and have thrown your nitroglycerine tablets away, and as far as you’re concerned, you’re cured? What will happen to you? If you do nothing after chelation therapy, surely and slowly your disease process will return upon you.
​
Chelation therapy is not a cure. It backs out disease very well, opens blocked blood vessels, and restores circulation, but it is not a cure. If you do not pay attention to diet, if you don’t stop smoking, if you don’t take the proper nutritional supplements, if you don’t exercise regularly, if you don’t make those very important basic changes which control the disease, then surely the disease process will settle back in upon you at some point in the future.
​
It is believed that in addition to following good diet and exercise, taking supplements, and not smoking, you should be taking additional maintenance doses of EDTA on a continual basis.
