There is a great deal of interest in therapies that can remove toxins in our environment. Healthy living and eating can help reduce exposure to heavy metals, but they cannot be avoided. One approach is Chelation therapy. Chelation refers to the way certain synthetic and body amino acids can bind to metal molecules and transport them harmlessly out of the body.

Originally, most Chelation was done intravenously (IV), where the chelating substance is given by injection directly into a vein. Although this treatment is invasive and expensive, it may be required for severe levels of lead and other toxins. Fortunately, there are Chelation therapies that are successful when taken by mouth rather than intravenous infusion. These are oral chelating agents with EDTA (Ethylene Diamine Tetra – acetic Acid) being very effective.

Other agents that work orally are the amino acids, N –Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) and L – Arginine. NAC is metabolized into Glutathione which acts as a powerful antioxidant and detoxifier in the body. Heavy metals like lead, mercury and arsenic are removed from the body by NAC. L – Arginine produces Nitric Oxide which reduces blood vessel stiffness, increases blood flow and improves blood vessel function. It is recommended that levels of Vitamin C & E intake be increased during a Chelation program. They act as powerful antioxidants and help in healing arteries.

It is important to remove toxic metals, as their presence is associated with the formation of molecules called free radicals. When weak bonds split, free radicals are formed. Free radicals are very unstable and react quickly with other compounds, trying to gain stability. Generally, they attack the nearest stable molecule. When attacked, the stable molecule becomes a free radical itself, beginning a chain reaction.

Vitamin C & E protect the body against the destructive effects of free radicals. These antioxidants neutralize free radicals, ending the reaction. C & E don’t become free radicals themselves by donating an electron, because they are stable in either form. They act as scavengers, helping prevent cell and tissue damage.

Some researchers link free radicals to cancer, heart disease and other serious, chronic illnesses. Reducing free radical activity may prevent common illnesses like arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), diabetes, arthritis and hypertension.

Oral chelation therapy also helps reduce the effects of living in a polluted world where heavy metals like mercury and lead may be in the air and in our food. Contamination of the water means toxins may appear in fish and seafood. Those living in cities breathe polluted air. Oral Chelation is a simple way to decrease the impact from environmental toxins and free radical activity in the body.

By increasing circulation with the removal of overabundant minerals and metals from the body, you can prevail over chronic and debilitating conditions. We at Cardio Restore believe our liquid oral Chelation program can assist you in achieving that goal.
