Frequently I am asked what is the difference between traditional chelating agents such as EDTA, DMSA, and DMPS, and Activated Liquid zeolite. If you have investigated the medical treatments you will discover, for instance that normally the considered level for treatment of Lead poisoning is 50 microliters per deciliter, whereas the W.H.O. suggests that 10 microliters per deciliter is the maximum limit. Researchers such as Dr Stephen Gail, expert from the University of Sydney, suggest that any level of lead in the body is unsafe. A similar situation occurs for Mercury.
Why do Doctors only recommend chelation in extreme cases, and then only for short bursts?
Lead and Mercury are stored in fat tissue, bones and other body cells. It doesn’t release easily, hence the medicos use chelation in short bursts to get the body to excrete it. While these protocols work, there are unfortunate side effects as with all medication that make it extremely risky long term. My understanding is that you should never use these protocols for more than 3 months at a time.
EDTA, DMSA and other chelation protocols pose a number of challenges. They put a chelating agent into the body with a specific negative charge. This attracts particles with the opposite positive charge and binds them to the outside of the chelating agent, i.e. lead is +2. Heavy metal particles powerfully bond with cell receptors, and need this sort of force to let go.
Chelation Robs The Body Of Vital Nutrients
Other particles with +2 valence include Sodium and Magnesium, vital minerals for good health. These may displace the heavy metals on the chelating agent leaving the toxins deposited somewhere else in the body. There is usually a requirement for additional vitamin and mineral supplements to replace nutrients soaked up by the chelating agent. Because the heavy metals are attached to the outside of the chelating agent, they can damage kidneys and liver during elimination.
As stated before, it can take some time to release an accumulated build up of heavy metals and toxins. Because they are foreign to normal body function many of us are less than efficient in eliminating them, a popular myth spread by Doctors who know nothing about detoxification. I find it astounding that in 2009, some Doctors are still saying that the body will naturally eliminate toxins, and there is no need to do anything about it. Even worse are health authorities who say the solution to serious lead poisoning in such places as Mt Isa, Cockle Creek, and Esperance in Australia is simply to remove the contamination. Naturally this is a good thing, but what of the personal contamination to the people and children who live n these areas?
When you read some of the stories on this site, the result of detoxification with Activated Liquid Zeolite, you will begin to see that it is very important to eliminate heavy metals and toxins to have optimum health. I proved it to myself and do so every day.
An Alternative to EDTA
When you understand how these protocols work, you will begin to comprehend why Activated Liquid Zeolite is such an incredible advance in this area. The appearance of a safe, effective chelating agent is indeed a major technological advance in saving the planet! Long before we go under from global warming, at the present rate of industrialization, many will be disabled or die from Heavy Metal and toxic poisoning. The cause of death will be listed as Cancer, Alzheimer’s, Coronary Failure, Diabetes, Arthritis, etc. The system works in such a way that toxins will not be looked for as the cause of these types of disease!
A few years ago, I was introduced to Activated Liquid Zeolite. A study of Virginia coal Miners showed a similar secretion of heavy metals to chelating agents, but with no vitamin or mineral loss, and no side effects. This is due to the Zeolite capturing the heavy metal particles and locking them within its cage like structure, thus rendering them harmless. As it is a very small particle size, it then safely passes out of the body.
I have seen some great results over the last three years, and some have taken it for long periods of time with Hair Analysis testing showing a rebalancing of nutrients. This happens when toxic levels are reduced.
Which Alternative Will You Choose?
Do you understand what this means! Now you can take a product long term and gradually bring your body back to being toxin free. It may take months or years to get there, but with Activated Liquid Zeolite it is totally safe. You simply get better and better health. Read some of the stories on this site and see what others say. It will open your eyes.
In the end it is your choice. Pick an alternative that has been proven by hair tests to eliminate Heavy Metals without compromising vital nutrient levels, or one which, although effective, can cause irreparable damage to vital organs and strip the body of nutrients? The choice is yours.
