a ranch house, a zip-lock bag and some ordinary flour
Two experiments:
1) Some ordinary wheat flour such as can be found in most homes, with some water in a zip-lock plastic bag. A magnet is placed in the bag and an extraordinary happens - Iron particles start popping and affix themselves on the side of the bag, forming clusters of what looked like iron filings.
2) The next experiment involves a well-known brand of cereal in a bowl of water. The magnet is returned to the bowl on this time and the flakes literally line and follow the magnet round the bowl.
This is the first time that I realized that there is so much added iron in the food that we eat, and it can impact on our health.
We have all said that heart attacks and heart bypass operations are a direct consequence of the clogging or furring of the arteries by "bad cholesterol". The arteries are then reduced to the blood flow through the arteries very difficult thus enormous strain on the cardiovascular system.
Why do we need chelation and what are they?
A few trace elements that we absorb are toxic, these include iron and lead
To take advantage of our body must chelates (key-lates) of them, and this requires chelating substances
Chelating agents add desirable trace elements and the body to properly use the metals they also cause undesirable trace elements and the body to remove.
Type of chelating agent
Many chemicals can be used as chelating agent. Their impact will depend on the exact nature and concentration of the chelator.
There are some weak chelators in common foods.
Stronger chelators are substances that are medically to rid the body of toxic metals on
Why is there potential for Iron Overload? Iron overload is possible because there is no normal mechanism for removal from the body.
The body is iron-efficient, it retains its iron and recycles it over and over again.
The body of the iron level is almost entirely controlled by the absorption and iron can build up gradually as the diet increased, especially among men, because they do not have a monthly blood loss.
Over a period of months and years, this will lead to the accumulation of several grams of iron.
Iron and cardiovascular disease risk
Iron may be free radical pathology.
There is now good evidence that free radical pathology leads to changes in the blood vessels, the conditions for atheroscelerosis.
Accumulation of iron in the body than the risk for heart disease and the connection does not end ....
Health statistics have shown that women have a lower risk of heart disease than men until menopause, after which the risk is the same.
Why?
Before menopause, women have a monthly blood loss, that frees the body from excess capacity, potentially toxic iron, which protect against heart disease.
Even before women with high blood cholesterol and high LDL (bad)-cholesterol, as strong risk factors for heart disease, have less heart disease than men.
The Lead Connection
Lead is a toxic element that has many adverse effects on health.
Evidence of links with heart disease, cancer and other diseases.
Researchers have found that cancer is higher for people living in the vicinity of heavily traveled roads, and it was suggested that this increased risk is due to the higher levels of lead in the air.
This led the researchers to determine the effect of a lead-removing substance - EDTA (ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid), a man made amino acid and chelating agent - on cancer in people who are near busy roads.
After 18 years, treatment with EDTA was a tenth of the cancer from those not treated with EDTA. (1)
Chelation therapy
This is the use of chelating agents, orally or by injection, in order to bind and remove harmful metals from the body.
The Man from chelating agent EDTA may be the most toxic metals.
Intravenous chelation
This therapy was developed by the doctors as an effective alternative to bypass surgery for atherosclerosis since the 1950s, the hope that the hardening of the arteries need not lead to coronary bypass surgery, heart attack, stroke and many other diseases.
Doctors noted reduced pain and blood cholesterol levels and other positive changes. EDTA chelation therapy has been reported in many conditions now thought to be related to free radical pathology: Rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease and others.
Another effect of EDTA is that it changes the calcium / magnesium ratio in the body.
EDTA removes calcium more efficiently than magnesium which reduces the ratio.
A reduction in the ratio improves the flexibility of blood cells, reduces the tendency of blood and blood-cholesterol and lowers the blood pressure.
So that the benefits of EDTA are not limited to the removal of toxic metals, but also the calcium / magnesium balance.
In the case of intravenous chelation, EDTA as a chelating agent. It is in a glucose formulation with synthetic B vitamins. It takes several hours and requires 80-100 treatments.
Oral chelation
Oral EDTA therapy can also be used. One or two oral doses of EDTA per day, over a period of months is a long-term preventive effect.
But beware! - Is there a lot of so-called oral chelation supplements on the market, with few or no chelating substances!
For an oral chelation supplement, tested and certified to lower bad cholesterol from the University of Illinois, Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition: Go to http://GetaHealthyHeart.com
