Arizona Natural EDTA Chelation Formula, 600 mg, 100 Capsules Features : EDTA is a chelating agent, meaning it can bind to heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and cadmium. Proponents argue that by removing these metals from the bloodstream, chelation therapy may reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, which are factors associated with cardiovascular disease. Many studies and health professionals argue that EDTA chelation therapy can dissolve or reduce arterial plaques, leading to improved blood flow. This, they say, could potentially benefit individuals with atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease. EDTA has antioxidant properties, and this may contribute to cardiovascular health by reducing oxidative damage to blood vessels and tissues. EDTA may bind to calcium, and some proponents suggest that this action could help prevent or reduce the buildup of calcium deposits in the arteries. EDTA (Calcium disodium) is an amino acid and chelating agent that binds and removes metals and minerals from the body. For decades, EDTA has been the standard treatment for heavy metal poisoning from lead, cadmium, arsenic, and mercury. Oral chelation therapy binds with the harmful metals in the same way as intravenous chelation therapy. The bound metals are then removed from the body via the urinary tract. Ingredients: Active Ingredients: Calcium disodium EDTA (ethylenediamenetetraacetic acid). Direction: Take EDTA at least 2 hours apart from any meals or supplements. This is because it binds to metals and minerals indiscriminately, meaning if there are other minerals in the system it will bind to those before reaching the desired area. 2-3 capsules a day for 10 days = 1 intravenous session (approx). Replenish depleted minerals by adding a multivitamin and mineral supplement. EDTA will draw away some minerals from your body over time, so it is a good idea to increase mineral intake. We also recommend taking EDTA in cycles of 6 weeks on then 2 weeks off. This is for the same reason we suggest a one-a-day multi: the break will allow your body to restore its mineral content to more natural levels. Safety Warning: Before considering any supplement, including EDTA, it's important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional. They can provide guidance based on the individual's medical history, current health status, and the available scientific evidence.
