EDTA Chelation Product Comparisons
Researching the various Chelation products is very time consuming. We know this only too well as we did all the research before we decided to import Cardio Renew into Europe.
Below you will find some of the products available from different companies. We hope that this will save you time in your research.
Apart from us at Cardio Renew International the Liquid EDTA product is only available in America, as a result the resources below are mainly American, however we hope that from the information below you will get a good insight into Oral Chelation Therapy, the costs and quality of our competitors.
I.V. Chelation (the benchmark of EDTA chelation)
The Leo J. Bolles Clinic
IV chelation therapy is done under a Doctor's supervision. You must be tested and monitored while in therapy. IV is what it is – it's an IV needle drip in a solution containing 2.5 – 3 grams of EDTA and other supplements. The average therapy is a thirty-session contract. Each session lasts two to three hours scheduled three times per week. Each session costs $85 - $125
Summary:
90 grams EDTA (30 sessions)
10 weeks at 3 session per week
That's $28.33 per gram of EDTA.
