Oral Chelation vs IV Chelation
I read you were doing the intravenous chelation. Did you do any research into oral chelation? Would you recommend any product that can be taken orally?
I haven’t heard favorable reports on oral chelation treatment. As I understand it, only 5-10% of the EDTA chemistry is absorbed when taken orally. Some believe this is an option for long term preventative therapy, not too useful for extreme cases that need the IV boost.
Stay tuned to the newsletter, as I will give updates regarding my chelation experience as it unfolds. I’ve undergone 23 of 40 IV EDTA chelation sessions thus far (3+ hours, twice a week).
Last I wrote about it, I had little more to say, but here’s a reprint since you missed it.
“As promised, here’s a brief update of my dazzling and exciting therapy: I’ve completed 18 of 40 three-hour IV treatments administered twice weekly. They’re not painful and I ruthlessly kill time resting, reading or searching for keys on my laptop. I’d rather be performing acrobatics or stacking my gold bullion, but a guy’s gotta do what a guy’s gotta do. There have been no evident changes in pain, energy or well-being, though blood tests indicate improvement in certain markers. Something’s happening somewhere.
Fact is, nothing substantial is expected until the full treatment has been administered, or some time (weeks) later. I knew this going in and have found the process to be a test of resilience, patience and faith. Insurance doesn’t cover the costs and I’ve found a swell space under the Santa Cruz Town Clock to set up a beach chair and beg. Hey, buddy… got a dime… 1,500 dimes to be exact?”
