What Is  IV Chelation Therapy??
IV EDTA Chelation therapy is an intravenous drip of sterile solution (water) and ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid (EDTA). The EDTA that is added to each infusion varies by practitioner. However, 2.5 to 3.0 grams is considered a complete treatment. Depending on the practitioner the other ingredients may vary as well. Below you will find the ingredients of one that I had years ago from a Florida DO, the only one where I wrote down the contents.

Sterile water with 2.8 grams of EDTA. The vitamins were C B1, B6 and B12. Also included was sodium bicarbonate. They also put in Heparin to use as an anticoagulant and Lidocaine to help eliminate the pain of infusion at the needle site.

All of the Chelation centers I have visited are set up very similar with one difference being the size and how many chairs are in the rooms. I have been to centers in Florida and Arizona where there are 25 to 30 chairs. I have been in Centers in small towns where there are only 2 to 4 chairs.

Another difference is what the health professionals do before your treatments starts. If you go to an MD or a DO you might get a full work up and examination, at a charge of course. I have had infusions from homeopaths that just required a urinalysis and they checked your blood pressure both before, during and after the treatment. The urinalysis is used to check your kidney function. If it is in the normal range everything is fine. I have seen literally thousands of people in these centers and it is rare event to see problems during EDTA and when you do the problem had occurred before EDTA started.

 

The patient sits in a chair in my experience always a lounge chair, which is a good thing. The clinic personnel first stick you in the arm with the needle and start the infusion. (Drip). They time the drip to last from three to four hours. Some people can take the infusions in less than three hours but the centers I have visited like it to be over three hours. The most pain I have seen in these treatments is when the needle's are first inserted. Some people do not have readily available (easy to hit) veins and the probing causes the pain. Some people experience some stinging pain at the needle site. The common way to stop the stinging is to slow down the drip.

After the drip is finished you go about your business as usual. Most health practitioners recommend two or three treatments a week until 10 to 30 infusions are completed. The number of treatments is usually proportional to the original problem. I always got beginning symptom relief in four to five treatments and I usually did ten treatments for such things as open wounds. On each occasion the open wounds would heal. In the past if no Chelation were done the wounds would eventually become infected and get progressively worse. I did find that once I finished the treatments I had to come back in a year or so and start again to keep the vessels clear enough to eliminate the symptoms. When I did not and I waited the symptoms came back along with the problems.

Each treatment cost me from $75 to $90 per treatment. I had a total of 40 treatments from 1996 through 2002. I recently called and priced the IV Chelation treatments at 3 different centers. They now run $115 to $150 per treatment.

That is why I went on my quest to find an easier and cheaper way to maintain my good circulation and for me I have found it, with my Oral Chelation Regimen.
