Heavy metals are everywhere, in our water, air, food, and workplace. We do not live one day on Earth free from heavy metal exposure, the best we can hope for is to limit the burden of heavy metals in our body. This is done with chelation therapy. Chelation (Key Lay Shun) therapy is not a complicated process, but it is lengthy and can get very expensive and time-consuming depending on which route you choose.
Is Available Today in Four Forms (we don’t include oral in comparison)
Topical EDTA Cream is probably the most appealing method of chelation due to the fact its not messy and easy to use. It can be applied any time of day and even twice a day, the cream has no scent so it does not smell like medicine. Breaking down the cream, because it is a 350 mg dose per 1.5 teaspoon, this makes 6 applications roughly similar to 1 IV treatment. It will take longer to complete chelation but the disadvantages of the suppositories are overcome. One jar of cream will last about 30 days and 30 applications is about 5 IV treatments, using 30 treatments as a baseline, you will need 6 jars.
If you elect to use topical cream, here would be a general breakdown:
6 month treatment | easy to apply | no downtime | apply’s like a high-end moisturizing cream | use in your daily regiment | apply in your home or office
By bypassing the acidic environment of the stomach and filtration of the liver, this is the premier method of chelation in the home. However there are drawbacks to suppositories as well. First of all, NOBODY wants to insert a suppository, it is not glamorous, nor appealing. Their are upsides, first you can do them in the comfort of your own home or during the day while you work. Also the rapid benefit is almost the same as IV treatments due to the dosage. Most health care practitioners suggest 3 suppositories is about the equivalent to 1 IV treatment. Suppositories are very safe & can be used daily.
If you elect to use suppositories, here would be a general breakdown:
Only a 90 day treatment | no major downtime | Use in your home or office | rectal administration known to be intrusive
The normal process for IV treatment is what is called a drip… this is where you sit in a recliner inside a physicians office for up to four hours until the medication has completely been taken in by the body. Each treatment can range from $100-150 and because at least 30 treatments are needed for a full course, the price can be very high. Moreover, you need to do two to three treatments a week, but IV chelation is too dangerous to be done daily so treatments must be separated to avoid complications. Even at two treatments a week though, IV treatments can be very invasive for someone with a busy schedule.
If you elect to use IV, here would be a general breakdown:
Plus each treatment requires 4 hours in a doctors office hooked up to an IV during business hours | Time consuming and evasive.
