Medically Supervised Chelation Therapy
Chelation therapy is an intravenous treatment that uses EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), a chelating agent that binds to certain metals in the bloodstream so they can be eliminated through the urine. The FDA has approved EDTA chelation therapy for the treatment of heavy metal toxicity. In some cases, it may be used under physician supervision as part of a broader cardiovascular wellness plan. Chelation therapy is provided following appropriate medical evaluation to determine if it is suitable for a patient’s individual needs.
At Ageless Wellness Center, we provide medically supervised chelation therapy for patients in Peachtree City, GA and surrounding areas.
IV Chelation Therapy
The most common method of chelation therapy is intravenous (IV) administration. During treatment, EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) is delivered through an IV under clinical supervision. EDTA binds to certain metals in the bloodstream so they can be eliminated through the urine. Chelation therapy is performed following an appropriate medical evaluation to determine if it is suitable for a patient’s individual health needs.
Why the Need for Chelation Therapy?
Dangerous metals and toxins can accumulate in the body over time from such things as dental fillings containing mercury, lead exposure, certain vaccinations, and routine consumption of farm-raised fish. Chelation therapy can reduce the presence of these metals and toxins over time. They do not leave the body on their own accord. A urine test can be taken to find out if these toxic metals are present in the body and if chelation therapy may be helpful.
Natural chelation therapy is also used to treat hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis). Some artery-clogging plaques contain calcium deposits. Chelation therapy has been proposed and used to remove these deposits and facilitate a healthier flow of blood through the arteries.
Chelation therapy is also used in some cases to treat inflammation-related conditions such as osteoarthritis. The idea is that EDTA may function as an antioxidant and protect the body against the damage caused by chronic inflammation.
