Quoted message said:Unfortunately for your theoyr, the chelating agent used for iron
overload is NOT the agent used by Kadile or other quacks. they
use the commonly available and cheap EDTA.
"Over 800,000 patient visits were made for chelation therapy in the United
States in 1997. Chelation therapy involves the use of EDTA (ethylene diamine
tetra-acetic acid), a synthetic amino acid that is administered intravenously
(through the veins). EDTA, which effectively speeds removal of heavy metals and
minerals such as lead, iron, copper, and calcium from the blood, is approved by
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in treating lead poisoning
and toxicity from other heavy metals. Although it is not approved by the FDA to
treat coronary artery disease, some physicians and alternative medicine
practitioners have recommended EDTA chelation as a way to treat this disorder."
