By reducing the burden of heavy metals in the body, the toxic effects on the immune, nervous, and cardiovascular systems are primarily reduced, leading to improved overall health. Chelation therapy is an important aspect of a holistic detoxification treatment.
As an accompanying measure for arterial calcification, chelation therapy promotes circulation throughout the entire cardiovascular system. This is important because patients who have detectable narrowings in one area of the blood vessels (such as carotid arteries, coronary arteries, or leg arteries) often also have circulatory disorders in many other areas. Not all of these can be identified and surgically treated. Chelation therapy, when used in conjunction with medication, nutrition, and exercise therapy, can help bridge this therapeutic gap.
