chelation therapy information

Chelation Therapy involves the administration of chelating agents to remove heavy metals like lead, arsenic or mercury from the body and to treat patients exposed to treated lumber or pesticides.  Chelation Therapy is used in both conventional and alternative medicine.  Chelation Therapy is administered intravenously, intramuscularly, or orally, depending on the agent and the type of poisoning.  Some alternative practitioners use chelation to treat hardening of the arteries and autism.  The theory behind and efficacy and safety of Chelation Therapy in alternative practices is not well accepted by the western medical community.
