Three Common Errors When Taking Oral EDTA Chelation

 Every year, EDTA chelation therapy gains in popularity. While IV sessions in a doctor's office are an option, more patients choose oral EDTA chelation due to its affordability, efficacy, and convenience. Additionally, it uses the same calcium disodium EDTA, which has been clinically demonstrated to be safe and effective when administered intravenously.  There are many chelation therapy benefits.

However, as EDTA becomes more well-known, more people are misusing it.  

When taken properly, Calcium Disodium EDTA differs from most other supplements because it helps you chelate minerals from the targeted locations rather than from the food you just ate. 

Mistake 1: taking EDTA together with food or another medication

 The stronger the affinity between EDTA and heavy metals, the heavier the metal is. However, EDTA also chelates randomly, which means it will cling to the first minerals. Because of this, you should take EDTA 1.5 to 2 hours before or after a meal and at least an hour before taking any other medications or supplements. This gives the EDTA ample time to be digested and absorbed into the bloodstream while maintaining its full chelating potential.

Mistake 2: Constantly taking EDTA without a pause.

Although the EDTA itself won't put you at risk, failing to give your body a break occasionally can result in low mineral levels. 

It will be easier to keep those levels stable if you take a "one a day" multi-mineral supplement, but it is still a good idea to cycle on and off this supplement.

3rd error: taking one capsule two or three times daily

This is unneeded and makes it more challenging to take EDTA as directed. Taking your entire daily dose simultaneously (on an empty stomach) has no negative effects. Many folks we speak with take EDTA in the morning or shortly before the night to maintain their meal and medication schedules.

Special warnings and precautions

When administered orally: Unapproved, over-the-counter chelation therapy items may be dangerous. It may also be dangerous to utilise prescription chelation therapy products for purposes that are not authorised. Dehydration, renal failure, and even death, among other severe side effects, can be brought on by these products.
