Oral Chelation Blog

Do you ever have days where you’re almost falling asleep at your desk? When you close your eyes for just a second and suddenly realize they are still closed? You ply yourself caffeine and still you feel tired. When your energy levels are low, it makes getting through the day difficult and for many, these days happen maybe a once a month. However, for some people, daily depleted energy affects their work life, social life, and even home life. It could be hypersomnia—a recurring daytime sleepiness that seems impossible to get rid of.

When you experience day after day of depleted energy, you may wonder “what can I do?” WebMD states 12 ways to help raise your energy levels naturally.

1. Get a good night’s sleep every night
2. Realize that the bedroom should only be for sleep and sex
3. Set a wake up time and stick to it (including weekends)
4. Slowly move your bedtime up
5. Set healthy meal times and menus whether at work, home, or on vacation
6. Exercise for at least 30 minutes a day: get your heart beat going
7. Destress—don’t allow too much into your day
8. When you’re nodding off and your eyes are heavy, go to bed
9. Don’t take a nap after 4 pm when your bedtime is 10 pm
10. Start a relaxing nighttime tradition
11. Stay away from late night alcohol
12. Finally, visit a sleep specialist if necessary

Other ways to improve your energy levels is through Yoga or meditation. You can also lessen your time spent using technology (especially TV) as the constant bombardment of information can scatter your concentration and make your energy levels feel depleted.

Oral chelation therapy can also help you increase your energy levels by removing heavy metals and toxins from your blood stream. By removing the plaques from your veins and arteries, your heart is able to work easier to distribute rich nutrients and oxygen throughout your body resulting in higher energy levels.

Can you believe it’s already August? Summer is nearing its last trek. Before we know it, it’ll be fall and then winter will be back with a vengeance. Even with my school years many years behind me, I still measure my summer as the months you have off while attending school. Fall won’t be here until the end of September but yet it feels as if summer is nearing its end.

The county fairs are happening everywhere and the commercials for them are all over the radio. Being from Minnesota, I look forward to the Minnesota State Fair every year. There are summer festivals to attend, the fairs to walk around, and end-of-summer parties that will be soon in the making. August has always been one of my busiest months as every weekend and many week days are overtaken by festivities.

As you partake in the end of summer merriment, be sure to pay attention to what you’re eating. It’s easy to forget how much fair food you have when it’s spaced out over the course of a summer but it’s important to limit your intake. Many of the fatty, fried foods that are everywhere this time of year have your entire daily recommended value of sodium, saturated fats and calories in one serving.

So, if you just have to try those cheese curds, share them and limit yourself to that. I won’t deny that the cheese curds are my weakness. Every year, my sisters and I attend the Minnesota State Fair, we get one order to split and this is the only time we eat them all year. Even after eating two pieces, I can feel the tension of the fried grease running through my body, which makes for an easy reminder to stop eating them. Remember: portion control is key!

Another thing to use in moderation is alcohol. Enjoy a pint or two but remember not to overindulge. Drink a glass of wine with dinner or have that margarita while sitting at the beach. Just notate that every day you overdo it, you are contributing an excessive amount of calories to your day and putting excess strain on your heart and other internal organs. Remember to stay hydrated with water and avoid drinking while in the hot summer sun. And please, always use a designated driver!

So practice moderation this summer at the many events, festivals, or parties you may attend. Your heart will thank you! As will your cholesterol levels, blood pressure, brain, liver, etc…

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.
