Could you tell me the pros and cons of chelation therapy in a nutshell? Does it really work for the prevention of CAD and if you already have coronary blockages can it really reverse it? If so, how long does it take before the arteries clog up again? Is the procedure safe?
to add to this question - had a brother-in-law that underwent open heart surgery end of June this year (5-bypass) regaining health slowly and 6 weeks afterward, suffered a stroke - can back agian with walk, speech, and physical movement, but was told hat he has 50% blockage of the carotid artery.  Dr's want to operate, but I listen to NY radio station speaking of chelation and this would/should clear up the blockage along with diet and  supplements.
