How to Clean the Inside of Your Body - Part 2

Chelation therapy is the use of chelating agents to remove heavy metals from the body.  Metals like lead, arsenic and mercury are most commonly treated by chelation therapy.  Heavy metals can do serious damage to tissue especially to the arteries, but above all they can damage brain cells. People with kidney problems may be suffering from heavy metal toxicity.  Especially for people with amalgam dental fillings, the damage from mercury is like hammering a nail into the kidneys.  Here is a list of symptoms of heavy metal poisoning:

Allergies

Anxiety, irritability

Autism

Brain fog

Cannot lose weight

Chronic pain

Coated tongue

Cold hands and feet

Dark circles under the eyes

Depression

Digestive problems

Extreme fatigue

Frequent colds and flus

Headaches

Insomnia

Intolerance to medications & vitamins

Loss of memory and forgetfulness

Low body temperature

Metallic taste in mouth

Muscle and joint pain

Muscle tics or twitches

Muscle tremors

Night sweats

Parasites

Prone to mood swings

Prone to rashes

Sensitive teeth

Sensitive to smells like tobacco smoke, perfumes, paint fumes and chemical odors

Skin problems

Small black spots on your gums

Sore or receding gums

Tingling in the extremities

Unsteady gait

Vitamin and mineral deficiencies

We recommend chelation therapy for people who eat a lot of fish and those who have metal amalgam dental fillings, both of which contain mercury.  It is also recommended for those who eat foods cooked in, wrapped with or stored in aluminum.  

Chelation therapy may be intravenously administered by a naturopath right in their clinics.  This is a process that may require several sessions over time, each session lasting a few hours.  There are also capsules that can be taken orally.  The IV is the most effective therapy, but also the most time consuming and expensive.  The oral therapy is the least effective but most convenient.  The middle ground between these two options is suppository chelation therapy.  The suppositories are small and easy to insert. A set of ten treatments, which is the recommended starting dose, costs only a fraction of what an IV treatment might cost.

Like any other detox, chelation therapy will have some side effects such as flue-like symptoms, rashes, fatigue or lethargy.  These are signs that the metals are coming out of a person’s system.  Although very rare, a person might experience allergic reactions to the chelating agents and treatment must be stopped immediately.

Consult your naturopath doctor before starting any chelation therapy on your own.
