ALS and Alzheimer's [is associated] with Mercury (there is a number of other metals related to the latter, such as aluminum) Ferraro, 2016.
Mercury and Aluminum are heavy metal ingredients often found in vaccines. Which would make EDTA an excellent chelator if you've been vaccinated.
Good historical details on EDTA.
* It was first used after World War II when sailors from the Navy developed lead poisoning from ship paint (Flora and Pachauri, 2010).
* FDA approved in the 1950s to treat heavy metal poisoning.
* More recently has been used in the alternative treatment of cardiovascular neurodegenerative diseases since these have been associated with metal toxicity (Kontoghiorhes, 2013).
At 2:50, she explains that in tiny amounts some heavy metals are important for maintaining homeostasis, like zinc, copper 25 mcg, and iron, but if too much they become toxic.
METALS INTERFERE WITH PROTEIN FUNCTION
1. Heavy metals with a positive charge replace hydrogens within the proteins.
2. This altars the protein's character, preventing its corresponding enzyme from carrying out metabolic processes.
3. The metals are also in a more stable state within the protein complex and a (neutral charge).
4. Due to #2 and 3, this new compound cannot be broken down.
5. These metal protein complexes build up in tissues and cause dysfunction.
6. Symptoms of heavy metal toxicity include GI disorders ataxia lung disease and much more (Duruibe, et al, 2007).
EDTA is a very effective against rid of these metals in our tissue build up because it is a very strong chelating agent chelation is the bonding of a ligand to ions and there are other chelating agents that are used for metal detoxification that can include DMSA and DMPS. There are different chelating agents because they address different heavy metals more effectively. EDTA comes in two forms most commonly as calcium disodium irritate and what it does if you check out the molecules on the right the metal ion displaces the calcium within the molecule and then that final protein metal complex or the new EDTA complex can get flushed out of the body just from urine the other form of EDTA is sodium meditate but it's less commonly used.
TARGETED DISEASES
1. Mainly used as a heavy metal detoxifier. In terms of brain health, it is used to treat neurotoxicity. It can also act as an antioxidant since heavy metals promote the creation of free radical species that can destroy DNA and cells (Fulgenzi and Ferrero), 2019.
2. EDTA may be able to cross the blood-brain barrier, BBB, as well.
3. Patients with ND are often found to have high levels or of various toxic metals and EDTA therapy reduced their ND symptoms.
* Ms associated with gadolinium (Fulgenzi and Ferrero), 2019.
* Parkinson's associated with lead.
* ALS and Alzheimer's [is associated] with Mercury (there is a number of other metals related to the latter, such as aluminum) Ferraro, 2016.
8:35. Everyone is exposed to such heavy metal on a daily basis. basis. So pretty much anyone can benefit from chelation therapy with EDTA because, you know, even if we might seem healthy, such heavy metals can have an effect on our body and be causing dysfunction in ways we don't even realize. Remember what she said earlier,
5. These metal protein complexes build up in tissues and cause dysfunction.
9:33. Supplementation isn't really an option because it isn't absorbed well in the GI tract so it very often has to be administered intravenously so you're in samples are taking before and after treatment to observe the level of detox and metals which is really cool because you can see the progress in the work that your body is doing to get rid of that metal with the help of EDTA right as it's happening.
And lastly, EDTA therapy is often administered with a combination of minerals and vitamins, including B vitamins, ascorbic acid, zinc, copper, iron, and that is because EDTA isn't a super specific chelating agent so it can actually remove some of the beneficial minerals of your body. So we want to make sure that that is replenished If you're receiving that therapy.
