evaluating the results of over 24.000 chelation patients.14 The results: 88 percent of the patients demonstrated clinical improvement.

One of the studies included 92 patients who were referred for surgical intervention. At the end of the study, only 10 required surgery either during or after their chelation therapy.15 In another study of 2,870 patients with various degrees of degenerative diseases, especially vascular disease, almost 90% of the patients showed excellent improvement.16 In one small, controlled crossover study of patients with peripheral vascular disease, results showed significant improvements in walking distance and anklelbrachial blood flow.17

And when, in one study, 65 patients on the waiting list for CABG surgery (for a mean of 6 months) were treated with EDTA chelation therapy.. .the symptoms in 89% improved so much they were able to cancel their surgery. In the same study, of 27 patients recommended for limb amputation due to poor peripheral circulation, EDTA chela-tion resulted in saving 24 limbs.18

Another tremendous source of information about chelation is a gentleman known as the father of the modern chelation movement, as well a world-renowned expert on nutrition, mineral metabolism, and alternative and preventative therapies, Garry Gordon, MD, DO. Dr. Gordon wrote the original protocol for the safe and effective use of EDTA. In an interview conducted by John Morgenthaler, Dr. Gordon explained some of the extraordinary results he has accumulated in his use and study of EDTA Chelation, including the following.

Common anti-clotting therapies like aspirin and coumadin are effective against only about one-third of excessive platelet aggregation and coagulation (sticky blood and plaque formation.) What s worse, aspirin has a well-known corrosive effect on the membrane of the stomach, causing a micro-hemorrhage right where the pill hits the stomach. EDTA, on other hand, appears to reduce all harmful clotting mechanisms. In a proper combination with other natural anti-clotting substances, oral EDTA is a safe effective alternative. According to Dr. Gordon. I ve known people who had such poor peripheral circulation that their feet were black bordering on gangrene. After oral EDTA, their black feet became pink again.

"It is my firm belief," says Dr. Sordon, "that anyone considering using aspirin for the prevention of heart attack should learn everything they can about oral EDTA. It is my belief that EDTA is as much as 300 times safer than aspirin."

EDTA actually stimulates bone growth, through a complex action of the parathyroid gland. Even though it is removing calcium from plaque in blood vessels, it has the ability to make bones stronger. Dr. Gordon believes that chelation can significantly reduce the incidence of osteoporosis. The more chelation we give people, the less osteoporosis they have and the less age-related calcium accumulation there is in their blood vessels.
