Summary
Di-sodium magnesium EDTA chelation therapy shows significant improvement in patients with vascular and degenerative diseases. Further FDA-approved studies are recommended to re-evaluate EDTA chelation therapy
Area of Science:
- Cardiovascular Medicine
- Geriatrics
- Integrative Medicine
Background:
- Chronic degenerative and age-associated diseases pose significant health challenges.
- Current treatments for conditions like ischemic heart disease and peripheral vascular disease have limitations.
- EDTA chelation therapy has been controversially viewed, necessitating further investigation.
Purpose of the Study:
- To retrospectively analyze the efficacy of di-sodium magnesium EDTA chelation therapy.
- To re-evaluate the therapeutic potential of EDTA chelation therapy for various chronic conditions.
- To assess the improvement rates in patients with vascular and degenerative diseases treated with EDTA chelation therapy.
Main Methods:
- Retrospective analysis of treatment outcomes in 2870 patients.
- Standardized qualitative criteria were used to assess patient improvement.
- Data collected on patients with ischemic heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, cerebrovascular diseases, scleroderma, and geriatric symptomatology.
Main Results:
- Significant improvement observed in ischemic heart disease (76.89% marked, 16.56% good).
- High efficacy in peripheral vascular disease and intermittent claudication (91% marked, 7.6% good).
- Positive outcomes in cerebrovascular diseases (24% marked, 30% good) and geriatric symptoms (75% marked).
Conclusions:
- EDTA chelation therapy demonstrates considerable efficacy in improving symptoms of various chronic degenerative and vascular diseases.
- The study suggests a potential
- tomato effect
- where a beneficial therapy is disregarded by the medical community.
- Renewed investigation and FDA-approved studies are recommended to validate EDTA chelation therapy, particularly for peripheral vascular disease.
