What is chelation therapy?

Chelation therapy is the intravenous infusion with an artificial amino acid called ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetic-acid or short EDTA. The therapy has been developed in the 1940s as a therapy for heavy metal poisonings like e.g. with lead, or mercury, as EDTA can bind heavy metals. The heavy metals that are bound to the EDTA can then be safely excreted by the kidney. This therapy is also used for cases of radiation poisoning in which radioactive substances were accidentally ingested.

As it was recognized that atherosclerotic plaques contain calcium in the 1960s, a hypothesis was formed that EDTA, which can also bind calcium, might be able to dissolve existing atherosclerotic plaques or at least prevent their formation und thus prevent the progression of existing atherosclerosis.

The therapy today consists of 5-30 session of an intravenous (I.V.) infusion of EDTA that takes about 2-4 hours in the first month. 30 sessions is the most common regimen. Most patients are recommended to return for once monthly follow-up treatments.

The therapy is also usually accompanied by life-style changes like smoking cessation, better nutrition (less saturated fats, more fruit and veggies, vitamin supplements), regular exercise and an attempt to lose weight.
