I've have patients who have actually attempted Chelation therapy with great success in Landrum, South Carolina. I have seen their pre and post carotid studies to see vast improvements in the blood flow.
The reason why this is not mainstream treatment is that this is a cheaper alternative and it can put all these cardiologists who perform heart catheterizations out of business (multi-million business).
