    No, this is an old (1989), extremely low quality
    retrospective study, performed by dubious researchers,
    published in a non-peer-reviewed journal which now seems
    defunct. There is ample opportunity for manipulation of
    the data in such a study. Patients were not randomised,
    and we are expected to take it on faith, without any data,
    that there were not critical differences between the
    groups such as age.

    I cannot for the life of me understand why some persons
    calling themselves doctors can claim such dramatic and
    important effects from a treatment ("90% reduction in cancer
    mortality"😉, yet not move heaven and earth to get a properly
    designed RCT performed on it. It reveals an extreme
    character flaw that one can only speculate about. It may
    have a lot to do with the kind of commercial enteprises (see
    "Dr Cranton's vitamins"😉 they are engaged
    in.

    If I was sure of data like this, or indeed the overblown
    claims of any cancer quack, I would be thumping on the desks
    of the WHO, the President of the US of A, every major
    newspaper I could find, every TV network, and anywhere else
    that I thought I could get the message out. I would never
    rest until my claims were properly investigated.

    As I have said before--- cancer quacks are [censored]-weak wimps.
    There are other explanations for their behaviour that are
    less flattering.

    If YOU think its a good thing to invest in, I have some
    homeopathic Vit-A-Min C aeorsols you might want to
    consider funding.

    My answer is "No".

    Jep there was an assumption that the rates of cancer in both
    groups would be the same without chelation..

    Other stuff I found in articles (Written by MD's) was that
    the anti cancer effect was down to inhibition in
    collagenases. If you look at the half life data for the EDTA
    you can see that it is excreted in 3 days, so how could this
    compound inhibit collagenases when it was long gone and
    excreted? gordonresearch.comabsorption

  7. Also found that it is a food additive - one of those
    horrible e numbers! chm.bris.ac.ukwebprojects20

  8. What a load of conflicting rubbish I can't make a decision
    on this drcranton.comoralchelation.htm Anth

  9. 5% oral absorption, with low excretion rate (3 days)

  10. More conflicting opinion
    smart-publications.comspu118 qanda.html
    Q: If EDTA is so good at removing heavy metals, does it also
    deplete the body of essential minerals and other
    important substances?

    R: No, amazingly it doesn't. In some instances, oral EDTA
    actually enhances the uptake of various trace minerals,
    while lowering the total body burden of lead. The World
    Health Organization and advisors to the National Academy
    of Science recommend that EDTA be added to the diet of
    children in poor countries to enhance mineral absorption,
    particularly of iron and zinc.

    Hmm, not unlike Galen Knight and Terence Scallen, who have
    steadfastly fought the University of New Mexico and its
    larcenous licensee, pro se, for five years and counting in
    the US federal court system. BTW, the third appeal was
    recently filed in the Federal Court of Appeals in
    Washington, D.C. containing mounting evidence of fraud and
    collusion that has thus far derailed serious development of
    the vitaletheine immune modulator patents. Instead of
    conducting straight-forward human trials of the authentic
    patented and published vitaletheine compounds used in the
    enabling studies, a somewhat related but ineffective
    substitute called Beta-Alethine has been foisted off on
    unsuspecting patients and investors, under misleading trade
    names like "Betathine", "BetaLT", "TauroxSB", and most
    recently, "COBAT", being touted as a homeopathic remedy for
    "fatigue". Like Ricky Ricardo used to say, "LuuUUUCEE, you
    have some 'splainin' to do"... ;^]

    I have been compiling some documentation for those
    interested, with more added as time and events allow:
