Effects of Chelation Therapy on Heart Diseases

Chelation therapy is a cure for lead and mercury
poisoning. Though it is not a well established
therapy for heart disease, still some healthcare
practitioners use chelation therapy to treat
heart problems and even stroke. The idea behind
employing chelation therapy for cardiovascular
disease is that the medicine utilised in the
treatment ties-up with the calcium which is in
fatty deposits (plaques) inside the arteries.
When the medicine ties up with the calcium, the
plaques are removed as the medication moves in
your bloodstream.   Research is still going on to
determine the level of safety and effectiveness
of this therapy on the cardiovascular diseases.
Doctors have different point of views about
chelation therapy.

• Why Chelation Therapy Is Done
•  
• Doses of a medicine known as EDTA
  (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) is given to the
  patient with help of an intravenous (IV) line.
  This medication searches and then stuck with the
  minerals present inside the bloodstream of a
  patient. After the medication covers completely
  with the minerals, it generates a compound which
  gets out of the patients body through urine.
•  
• It is an effective treatment to cure lead or
  mercury poisoning. Some professionals believe
  that chelation therapy could start to reverse
  cardiovascular disease by sticking with the
  calcium in the plaques (which clog the arteries)
  and removing it from the body. Research is still
  going on to validate the effects of this therapy
  for heart diseases.

• How To Prepare For Chelation Therapy
•  
• Before undergoing this therapy to cure any heart
  disease, you must first talk with your doctor to
  know about all the expectations, results, risks
  and side effects related to it.
•  
• After consulting your doctor, if youre satisfied
  with the discussions then you can choose to
  undergo this treatment. No specific preparations
  are required before the treatment of this
  therapy. The length of the treatment session
  depends on the doctor and number of sessions will
  also be decided by him.

• During the Chelation Therapy Treatment
• The therapy is conducted by expert doctor in 5 to
  30 sessions. In every treatment session, youre
  asked to either sit on a chair or lie on a bed
  and then an IV line is inserted with help of a
  syringe in your arm or hand. Then a liquid
  solution (containing the medication required in
  chelation therapy) is passed through the IV line.
  Several hours are needed to complete each
  treatment. The only discomfort you might feel
  during the therapy is a temporary stinging or
  burning sensation on the skin where injection has
  been inserted.

• After the Treatment
• Once the chelation therapy is concluded
  successfully, you can go back to your normal
  routine soon. After the treatment, you can eat
  your usual food and do your daily work chores
  as usual. There are hardly any side effects of
  this therapy, but if you notice anything unusual
  then contact your doctor in Sydney.
