Oral Chelation Blog

There are many people who wish they didn’t have to take the many pills that can be prescribed when they experience health concerns such as heart disease, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Alternative medicine is becoming more popular as society continues in the “green movement”. Homeopathic medicines and herbal supplements are often considered. Another form of alternative medicine is oral chelation therapy.

Chelation therapy chelates (removes) calcium, heavy metals, and other minerals from your blood stream resulting in clean, free-flowing veins and arteries. This provides your body with oxygen and rich nutrients, resulting in healthier organs, tissues, and nerves. By opening your arteries and allowing blood to flow freely through your body, you are helping it to recuperate and operate normally once more.

Chelation can be considered an alternative form of medication for a variety of health conditions including but not limited to:

• Alzheimer’s Disease
• Cardiac Arrhythmia
• Cardiovascular Disease (Heart Disease)
• Coronary Artery Disease
• Diabetes Mellitus
• Diabetes Neuropathy
• Erectile Dysfunction (ED) / Impotence
• Heart Failure
• High Blood Pressure
• Macular Degeneration
• Osteoarthritis
• Peyronie’s Disease
• Raynaud’s Disease
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Senile Dementia
• Strokes

It is still the season of warmth and sunshine—summertime—and so many people are heading out on vacation. Whether you’re flying or driving, you may end up sitting for a long time. Deep vein thrombosis or DVT is a blood clot that can form in your veins leading to pain, swelling, serious complications and even death.

Though DVT is more common in people with a history of blood clots or those who have recently had surgery in the lower half of their body, it can potentially happen to anyone. Also, the elderly or those who are overweight have a higher potential for these dangerous blood clots. Regardless of your risk level, it increases when you sit for long periods of time such as while driving or flying. The following are some tips to help prevent DVT while traveling this summer.

1. Rotate your ankles often every hour.
2. Wear loose, comfortable clothing, especially on the lower half of your body.
3. Wear socks or hose that help increase circulation; these are often provided by a pharmacy or doctor.
4. Drink lots of water. It’s important to stay hydrated.
5. Avoid caffeine and alcohol.
6. Stretch during your trip: flex your toes, roll your ankles, lift your legs off the ground for a minute and hold, stretch your legs as far in front of you as you can, gently shake your legs, rise up off your seat for a few seconds to take pressure off your backside.
7. If you are flying, when possible, stand up and walk around for a couple minutes each hour.
8. If you are driving, stop once every two hours to stand and stretch. Walk around a wayside rest or gas station to relieve pressure build-up.
   

What many don’t realize is that DVT can occur if you sit for long periods of time in your day to day life as well. If you work at a desk or have a job that requires you to be in a chair, make sure you are following the above steps as well. Get up at least once an hour and walk around your office or do simple stretches at your desk. Also, while watching a movie or reading a book, follow the stretching suggestions.

Another way to help prevent DVT if you are prone to blood clots is to use oral chelation therapy. Chelation therapy helps your blood flow freely, which in turn delivers rich nutrients and oxygen throughout your body.

Living with psoriasis can be difficult for some who suffer from this skin disease and it can be disabling if arthritis comes into play. In others, it’s merely an inconvenience. During times of flare-ups, someone suffering from psoriasis may experience negative self image, itching or burning sensations, and severe dryness.

Definition:

Psoriasis is a skin disease involving the life cycle of a person’s skin cells. It is a chronic disease that goes through ongoing stages of good (remission) and bad.  It is a fairly common disease, affecting many people worldwide. Diseased cells build up on the surface of the skin causing dry red patches and thick silvery scales. Psoriasis can be painful and is often very itchy. The irritated skin usually responds well to treatment though no cure exists. The most common form of this skin disease is plaque psoriasis.

Ways to Ease Psoriasis

• Change your diet – Eat a balanced diet high on whole grains, vegetables, fruits, fish, and lean meat.
• If you are obese, lose weight – By maintaining a healthy weight, medications for psoriasis tend to be more effective.
• Keep a journal – Record foods you eat, daily stressors, large events, or other things that may trigger a flare-up. Also, notate each time you experience the onset of psoriasis and how long each occurrence lasts.
• Avoid sunburn – While it’s a good thing to get small doses of natural sunlight through light therapy, avoid sunburn if at all possible as it can prompt psoriasis.
• Avoid alcohol consumption – Alcohol can trigger psoriasis by reducing the effectiveness of treatments.
• Find stress release practices – Heavy stressors can easily cause psoriasis. Using deep breathing, yoga, meditation, or other stress release techniques can help keep psoriasis flare-ups at bay.
• Topical treatments – This form of treatment is usually used for mild to moderate psoriasis. It can help control the flare up and spread of the skin disease. Topical treatments can also reduce the itching, burning, painful, and dryness of psoriasis.
• Oral and injected treatments – These are often used for the most severe types of psoriasis. Many of these treatments have difficult side effects so the drugs are often restricted or alternated with more natural treatments.
• Bathe daily – Cleaning your body every day with mild soaps and lukewarm water can settle inflamed skin. Also, relaxing in a tub with colloidal oatmeal, Epsom salt, or dead sea bath beads for about a half hour can help as well.
• Chelation therapy – Poor circulation can increase psoriasis flare-ups so using chelation therapy can help. Oral EDTA cleanses your body of heavy metals and toxins, freeing your veins and arteries for easy blood flow.

One of the biggest problems when it comes to food addictions and binge eating is that you have to eat to live. You cannot cut yourself off from the addiction as you would with smoking, drinking, or drugs. You can’t quit eating if you want to be healthy. Eating the right foods in portion controlled meals is very important to learn. On Health.com, they provide a list of 10 fat-burning carbohydrates that can fill you up and keep you full longer.

Lots of familiar foods are loaded with Resistant Starch, but most people don’t consume enough. Aim to get 10 to 15 grams a day of this important fat-burning nutrient by eating these 10 foods.

Resistant Starch helps you eat less, burn more calories, feel more energized and less stressed, and lower cholesterol.

10 of the best resistant starch foods that help you burn fat are:

1. Bananas
2. Oatmeal
3. White beans
4. Lentils
5. Potatoes
6. Plantains
7. Garbanzo beans
8. Pearl barley
9. Whole wheat pasta
10. Brown rice

Eating carbs correctly can also help you control your blood pressure and diabetes. Carbs speed up your metabolism faster, therefore helping you stay slim. People who eat a lot of carbs correctly tend to be at a healthier BMI than those who avoid them. Carbs keep you satisfied for longer—you end up eating less because you feel full quicker. Most people crave carbs and restricting them from your diet makes you want them more. Do the research—low carb diets don’t work as well as diets that have you eating balanced proportions of vegetables, fruits, dairy, and carbs. Learn more at Health.com.

It’s important before beginning any diet or exercise plan that you talk to your health care professional first.

Do you ever wake up in the morning, exhausted and wishing you could stay in bed for at least another hour? And I’m not just talking about a “case of the Monday’s”. A reduction in energy levels can have serious effects on your everyday life. If you have been overly tired recently, it may be due to a number of causes. Diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, dehydration, poor diet, and inactivity can all lead to serious energy depletion.

According to WebMD, things you can do to improve your energy levels:

• Drink more water—make sure you stay hydrated by drinking at least eight 8 oz. glasses
• Decrease your caffeine intake—too much caffeine can keep you up at night or give you poor sleep patterns
• Get checked for diabetes—high levels of sugar remain in the bloodstream rather than being turned into energy resulting in constant, unexplained fatigue, check with your medical professional regarding the possibility of diabetes
• Get checked for heart disease—if daily activities you once found easy now quickly tire you it could be a sign of heart disease, talk to your healthcare provider regarding a checkup
• Improve your diet—eating foods that are low in nutritional value can result in high fatigue, eat a balanced diet to keep your blood sugar at a normal rate and your energy levels can naturally increase
• Exercise—if you regularly do not exercise, add at least 20 minutes of mild to moderate exercise 3-5 times a week to help fight fatigue
• Sleep 7-8 hours a night—adults who get a full night’s rest generally have higher energy levels than those who sleep less than 7 hours a night
  

Other reasons for fatigue could be depression, anemia, sleep apnea, hypothyroidism, urinary tract infections, fibromyalgia, or food allergies.

Long, unexplained periods of fatigue should be discussed with your health care professional. Serious energy depletion can take a toll on your physical and mental health. If left untreated, fatigue due to inactivity, poor diet, or dehydration can lead to much more serious health concerns.

Oral Chelation Therapy

Chelation therapy can also be used to help treat fatigue due to heart disease, diabetes, or other poor physical health reasons. Chelation therapy opens your arteries by chelating (removing) heavy metals, toxins, and plaque from your blood stream. This results in healthy blood flow delivering rich nutrients and oxygen throughout your entire body.
