The question of whether it does more good than harm remains controversial, and has been touted online as a miracle cure for a variety of ailments.
There are MANY horrible side effects of chelation therapy, so intense are these side effects that they rarely justify using this therapy.
Chelation therapy is a series of intravenous infusions containing a sythetic amino acid (EDTA) and various other substances.
It is approved and effective for hypercalcemia and poisoning by heavy metals such as lead (not mercury!).
