CHELATION with EDTA, DMSA,
DMPS, glutathione and infra red sauna
Our bodies
aren't very good at expelling heavy metals and toxins. The
half-life of mercury in the brain, for example, is more
than 10 years. Our ancestors weren't exposed to the heavy
metals and toxic food we encounter, so a mechanism for effectively
dealing with these toxins never evolved. To keep our bodies
in optimal condition, we need to make sure that we aren't
"overloaded" with toxins.
Chelation
therapies are meant to do just that - help our bodies get
rid of harmful substances. Chelation is the process by which
a metal or mineral (such as lead, mercury, arsenic, aluminum,
etc.) is bonded to another substance so it can carry them
away in urine, feces or sweat.
Chelation
therapy treatments are used for numerous diseases, including
autism
and post-vaccination
syndrome (PVS). They are also used in cardiovascular
diseases, heavy metal toxicity, autoimmune diseases and
many other conditions. When left untreated, heavy metal
toxicity can lead to severe problems in both children and
adults. For a detailed list of symptoms caused by different
metals, please see
here.
Nowadays,
many holistic health practitioners offer chelation therapy.
However, our chelation programs are different. We offer
well-researched and tested gentle chelation methods
that rebuild rather than destroy your body.

Dr.
Koles Detoxification programs:
Our
Detoxification programs include the following:
Step
1: Identifying your personal needs - Medical testing
One months before a detoxification and chelation program is started,
Dr. Koles will order blood and allergy tests along
with tests that assess your digestion, GI tract microbial flora,
nutritional status and toxicity levels. This will
help us tailor your detoxification program and monitor
your progress.
Step
2: Pre-treatment - Achieving whole body balance
As
the base of our treatment plans, we first help you
achieve a whole body balance. We believe that rapid
chelation that doesn't take your overall health status
can be potentially dangerous rather than helpful.
During the pre-treatment phase, we offer the following:
- Body
meridian stimulation
This is essential for the proper function of all
organs. We use laser auriculotherapy
(painless ear acupuncture) and/or classical acupuncture.
We combine the acupuncture with myofacial
body work and oriental massage. These techniques
will help balance your nervous system through a
natural detoxification of physiological pathways
(i.e. the liver, kidneys, skin).
- Opening
of detoxification pathways
To
effectively deal with a heavy metal burden, you
need an open detoxification pathway and you need
chemical energy (ATP) within your cells. We provide
supplementation with thiamin phosphate
and niacin whenever necessary. We
also add far
infrared sauna therapy, ozone therapy,
homeopathy, lymphomassage
and acupuncture (acupressure) for general body detoxification
balancing and enhancement.
- Preventive
treatment of intestinal imbalance
We use probiotics, such as Mutaflor,
Bificol, etc and naturopathic remedies to treat
and prevent intestinal dysbiosis. We also use organic
anti-fungal remedies, such as Lauricidin, which
is a natural antimicrobial remedy. If you have Candida resistant to natural
antifungal remedies (Lauricidin, oregano, Pau dArco,
etc), we
can add the antifungal drug Nystatin to your treatment.
It is safe and can be used even in children.
We design a diet with different antiparasitic and
antifungal foods, including organic garlic, cilantro,
grapeseed extract and pectin, ginger, flax seeds,
chlorophyll, raw cabbage, sauerkraut, coconut and
virgin coconut oil and so on. During this time,
raw sweet fruit and juices should be avoided.
-
Pre-treatment for magnetic
therapy
In some cases, we use magnetic therapy to enhance the detoxification
process.
If you are considering magnetic therapy for the
heart or brain, a two-to-three month pre-treatment
period is suggested. In our office, we use special
pads and wraps with 4,000 Gauss negative magnetic
field which increases ATP energy production within
the cells. Sick cells that tend to be affected by
heavy metals lack a positive charge. Once treated
with a negative magnetic field, it will no longer
lack in positive charge and allow itself to be over-calcified
and metal poisoned.
Detoxifying
baths and
far
infrared sauna
The
chelation pre-treatment should help prevent possible
adverse reactions that can occur when chelation
begins. The final step is a two-week treatment with
detoxifying baths and far infrared sauna therapy.
We found good detoxification results in combining
IR sauna with ozone therapy.
Step
3: Chelation program
-
Gentle
chelation first - no EDTA
Our research and experience shows that chelation
should be never begin with any form of EDTA! Administering
EDTA first can temporary, but significantly, increase
mercury toxicity in the brain (up to 100 times,
according to studies on the subject). Dr. Haley
at University of Kentucky Medical Center conducted
numerous studies on this. You can find them for
more information.

Nowadays,
almost everyone has some mercury in their bodies.
EDTA is a strong lead chelator. If IV EDTA used
first, it will not only flush out huge amounts of
lead, but also cause cells to be more prone to mercury
damage. This can result in severe damage to important
brain cell structures called "tubulins",
leading to Alzheimer's-like dementia.
If
a person has no mercury toxicity and wants chelation
for general treatment, such as for atherosclerosis,
impotence, Alzheimers, diabetes, etc., we can
begin with EDTA. However, we would test the patient
for mercury toxicity first to avoid any potential
side effects.
- Chelation
with glutathione
Glutathione should always be the first agent to
consider since it's the body's natural chelating
agent. A breakdown in the body's glutathione stores,
synthesis and reclamation can be a prerequisite
to developing mercury toxicity.
- Oral
or transdermal DMSA/DMPS
We recommend beginning with the classic protocol
of oral DMSA (10 mg/kg ) or trasndermal DMSA for
3 days on followed by 11 days of mineral and nutrient
replacement. To read more about DMSA and DMPS, please
click
here.
- Rectal
EDTA
EDTA rectal suppositories are added 3 months after
initial DMSA (or DMPS, if preferred). We prefer
to administer EDTA through suppositories because
they're safer, gentler and more effective. You can
read more about our rectal
EDTA suppositories here.
Before starting the rectal EDTA treatment, we first
order tests to assess heavy metal toxicity in your
urine, blood and feces. We also check liver and
kidney function.
Step
4: Supportive therapy during and after chelation
- Bowel
/ intestinal support
The primary route of excretion for mercury is
the bowels. To minimize hepatic reuptake of mercury
from the bowels, we use different binding agents,
such as chitosan, charcoal and fiber. We
also use a remedy called Allochol, which
contains charcoal, bile acids and garlic. It has
been safely tested by decades in Europe.
To improve bowel function during chelation, we also
design special cooking plans that utilize quick
boiling and frying with no oils or butter.
Bowel cleansing using mild laxatives, especially
Lactulose, has also demonstrated effectiveness
in reducing symptoms from heavy metal movement among
our patients.
- Protecting
your kidneys
Kidney injury is a characteristic consequence of
poisoning from mercury. Albuminuria (protein in
the urine) is a classic result of this. We recommend
push fluids along with a vegetarian, CF/GF, no sugar
diet for kidney support.
We also add organic Pol-Pola or Parsley containing
herbal formulas if any sign of renal damage is present.
In cases with renal damage, chelation should be
done very slowly with homeopathic and natural remedies,
detox baths and infrared sauna.
Our
patients are monitored throughout the chelation process
to ensure maximum health benefits. To learn more about
different chelating agents we use, please click
