Excellent for Strokes, Diabetic complications, etc, January 26, 2001

I believe this book saved my husband Jon's life. I found the book on Valentine's Day, 1997, while searching for a gift for Jon, who had been very ill. By the next day, I had consulted the ACAM site, www.acam.org, to do a search for a local doctor who would do chelation. A few days later, the doctor did a full-body Doppler test which showed that my husband had 80% blockage of his carotid arteries. (A second Doppler test done by a different doctor on a different machine a week later, gave the same results.) Doc also took a hair sample. Lab analysis showed that Jon's hair (and therefore his body) was loaded with toxic metals, from a lifetime of working in a machine shop. He got chelated after checking out the safety of the alternatives (grim). Chelation was cheap, safe, and 7 weeks later, my husband's blockages were gone. He is hale and hearty today.

Guess what, chelation will also work beautifully and quickly AFTER someone has had a stroke, too. I just wish the FDA would see the light and fast-track the huge chelation study that has been sitting on their desk gathering dust for many years now. While they dither, people die.
