Chelation Story

As you will see in the photo the wound has been completely healed. It took about 15 days to get this far. As I previously said that may not seem like much to some readers but it is a miracle to me. The lower photo is from a little different angle. As you see in this photo there is a toe missing and you can also see the large scar of a open wound on the right side of my foot. This foot ulcer was open for over two years and during that time I also lost the little toe as you can see. Diet change and chelation therapy both IV and oral has made the miracle you see in the healed wound possible. That foot ulcer started just like the small wound you see in the photo. When your circulation is very bad the wounds do not heal and readily become infected and grow. Today there is much better wound healing procedures but the best is EDTA chelation therapy and good diet. You can do any of the other procedures but EDTA still does the job of reducing symptoms and diet actually gives the body the nutrients and the body does the healing. No matter what procedures you use without diet change it all will return and you might have to start all over.

If you have read my story on my web site you will know that I have lost toes and had open wounds on my feet that would not heal except by plastic surgery. As a re cap on April 1, 1980 I quit smoking. And that one thing started me on my way to beat the chronic vascular disease that I had. My disease was diagnosed as many things including Burgers disease, peripheral vascular disease and PAD. In the final analysis, my legs below the knee and my feet and toes just had real bad circulation and that is why that area of my body would not heal.

At that time I did not change my diet, in fact I knew little about diet. My problem returned but not on the scale that I once had it. As my story will tell you I finally found about EDTA chelation therapy and started on that. Later I did oral chelation therapy and that really helped. I was well on my way to a cure when my research led me to diet. I believe changing my diet was even more important to me than the EDTA. You see EDTA is like a drug it fixes the symptoms but does nothing for the disease it self.

I have not had an open wound on my foot for years and years. I have gotten a few scratches but no real wounds. Well, last week August 10th to be exact I got a blister from a new pair of shoes. A blister is the type of wound that was hard for me to heal in the past. The wound although not large is the type that when I had my condition of PVD would not heal without the help of EDTA.

This photo of my foot was taken the day after the wound was discovered. As you might be able to see the wound has not closed yet. The second photo down was taken August 16th and you can see the wound is completely closed and healing nicely. This is something that never happened when I got a wound on my foot in the past.

I will post the date and photos when the wound is completely healed. This may not look like much to many people. However, to me it is a major win for my health condition. The diet which I continually try and improve and my walking and running exercise program has shown to really work. Not just helping my symptoms but actually curing the disease. I have taken only one bottle of EDTA this year and will probably not take any more. I ma wanting to go without EDTA to show that a medical condition can be completely cured with the assistance of drugs and things like EDTA but in the final analysis the condition can be cured and maintained for long periods of time by diet alone. And please remember I am over 72 years old.

Our recommendation has been to take the capsules sublingually. However, this can be a pain in the #$^&%. Therefore I have been taking my recent round of Oral EDTA in the liquid form.

I take the capsules apart and dump them into a glass of water. Then I stir for about a minute and the EDTA dissolves completely. Drink it down. There is no taste as far as I can tell in about 6 ounces of water.

Sometimes you can still see the EDTA grains swirling in the water. Do not worry about it. This is as close to liquid as we will be able to get using powdered EDTA to start. In this form it gets to work a little quicker and research shows it might be absorbed better because it geta through the stomach faster. Taken on an empty stomach is best in that way the stomach pays little attention to an amino acid in water. It treats edta just like water in this form.

It is now May and I am taking 3 capsules a day as my maintenance dose. In that way I figure I absorb about 1 gram per day using my sublingual/liquid method I recommend to my readers. Also I have increased my normal 1 to 2 caps a day of my multi vitamins to 4 caps per day to see if I can increase my energy levels.

I began taking oral chelation again in August of 2007. I did this for two reasons. One I take oral chelation as a regular regimen to help keep my vessels clear. Two I was experiencing a symptom that only seems to affect me. I have never talked to anyone that has had this same symptom. This symptom has showed up before and when I take chelation therapy either IV or oral it goes away.

The symptom is a slight burning sensation in the groin about were the major artery and veins moves from the upper thigh into the stomach cavity.

I started taking my usual eight capsules a day by my sublingual method. However, recently I have had to cut back to 4 a day. The eight caps a day have been throwing my digestive system slightly out of whack and causing some diarrhea.

I have been taking the four caps a day now for about 6 weeks and I have about three days remaining. All of the symptoms I had been experiencing are now gone. The symptoms disappeared in about two weeks.

Another regimen I have added is two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar a day. I have known about the effects of apple cider vinegar for years but just kept forgetting to take it. The apple cider vinegar really helps to curb my appetite and it reduces carbo cravings to almost zero. Further, it has definitely helped my prostate problems as well.

This leads me to the last comment. Taking apple cider vinegar helps me increase my water consumption which is really important to middle age people and up. I have been reading much information that states that dehydration can be the cause of many of our illness. Further water consumption makes the blood vessels supple and they tend to expand when you are well hydrated.
