If Alternatives Work, Why Are They Repressed?
"In the last ninety days, at least three chelation doctors have been hauled before the board - one lost his license, the other two were threatened and told, they're going to get us all, one at a time!" - from a 1986 letter to the author from chelation doctor John Trowbridge, Humble, Texas By the 21st century, chelation therapy will be warmly praised by Organized Med with no admission of past attempts to destroy the doctors who pioneered its use. As you read this book, chelation is still under attack. Just what is this life-saving, life-enhancing procedure that is causing much commotion behind the scenes? Chelation therapy is a slow-drip IV injection of the synthetic amino acid EDTA. It was first used by doctors in the late 1940s to remove lead poisoning from workers who had been poisoned in battery factories and ship painters who used lead-based paint. By chance, doctors discovered that it also helped remove the deadly plaque from clogged arteries and veins and the calcium that accumulated in their walls from the aging process and from pollutants such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and excessive iron and copper in the environment. Chelation not only prevented many heart-circulatory diseases, but reversed these conditions. But there was a drawback to this wonderful discovery by medical doctors who achieved this breakthrough in their humble clinics. They had not first obtained permission from those who control the practice of medicine. Sounds unreasonable, and it is. Organized Medicine refuses to acknowledge chelation's track record of over 30 years in the prevention and healing of heart disease, stroke, senility, diabetic gangrene and many other vascular-related conditions. There are documented cases of patients who were scheduled for leg amputation within a few days, but saved their legs by switching to a chelation doctor for chelation therapy. Perhaps Organized Med should worry more about the wrath of chelated patients who learn their options too late than about the financial loss chelation will eventually cost them.
