Customized Chelation therapy Irvine CA

CHELATION THERAPY irvine, CA

What is Chelation therapy?

Chelation therapy Irvine offers removal of heavy metals with the use of powerful chelating agents such as DMSA (dimercaptosuccinic acid) and EDTA (ethylenediamine tera-acetic acid).  Chelating agents bind to heavy metals and pull heavy metals into the stool, urine, and even sweat to be excreted.   At Chelation therapy Irvine, we understand that the choice and dosages of chelating agents need to be personalized to you for your safety and best results.    We offer Intravenous or IV Chelation therapy for more efficient removal of heavy metals.

What are the lab tests for heavy metal exposure?

Prior to starting Chelation therapy, our functional medicine doctor will order heavy metal testing for you.  Heavy metal testing can include blood, urine, and hair testing, dependent on your clinical history.   This testing is not usually done by your conventional doctors.  This is why it is important to work with a functional medicine doctor who is experienced with Chelation therapy. 

What do I do with my dental fillings?

Dental fillings that are metal usually contain a mixture of copper, mercury, nickel, tin, silver, and gold.  Silver and gold fillings are often advertised as "pure" but most of these fillings also have other metals added to ensure stability.  It makes sense that you would need to remove metal fillings PRIOR to doing Chelation therapy.  We recommend that you consult with a holistic or biologic dentist to discuss safe removal of metal fillings.  It is important to understand that removing dental fillings does NOT mean that you have removed all the heavy metals in your body.  Heavy metals are usually distributed in other tissues in the body.  This is why we recommend that you do Heavy Metal Lab Testing AFTER removing your dental fillings to see if your levels are still high.  Most patients continue to have high levels of heavy metals after removal of their dental amalgams and would benefit from Chelation therapy.  

How does heavy metal exposure happen?

We are all exposed to heavy metals.  Many people are aware that dental fillings can be a source of heavy metal exposure.  However, the majority of us are unaware that we can get heavy metal exposure from our food and water, which we put into our bodies on a daily basis.  Heavy metal exposure also come from skincare products, common household products, and construction materials.   This is why heavy metal exposure is so ubiquitous and epidemic.  Common sources of heavy metals include:

  • Food (fish, chicken, tofu, fruits, vegetables,  coffee, chocolate, rice, etc...)
  • Pesticides
  • Drinking water, well water, rain water
  • Medications
  • Herbal remedies
  • Cigarette smoke
  • Dental fillings
  • Cookware
  • Plastics 
  • Cosmetics
  • Batteries
  • Lightbulbs
  • Paint 
  • Construction materials
  • Gasoline

What does heavy metal exposure do to the body?

Scientists are only starting to understand the link between heavy metals and health.  The long-term health effects of heavy metals are only beginning to be studied and understood.  High levels of heavy metals have been linked to the following symptoms and conditions:

  • asthma
  • autoimmune conditions
  • chronic fatigue
  • headache
  • hypothyroidism
  • diabetes
  • hypertension
  • atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease
  • lower IQ
  • neuropathy (numbness, tingling)
  • poor memory, brain fog
  • Alzheimer
  • Parkinson
  • tremors
  • kidney problems
  • cancer
  • infertility
  • birth defects
  • spontaneous abortions (miscarriages)
