Much to DrRich's chagrin, ads pushing chelation therapy continue to appear on the About.com Heart Disease Website. But chelation therapy does not work. While he can't get rid of these ads, DrRich can at least "attract" them to a page on which he tells you the REAL story about chelation. (DrRich calls this a "bug zapper" article - by mentioning the word "chelation" several times, the article pulls all the chelation ads to one place, where they are "zapped" by the truth.) In any case, if you are tempted by such ads, please read this article.

I do not know if you meant to but I thought the article was quite tongue in cheek but I do totally agree with you. You pen some very good articles and I am one of your followers. Well done.

In 1990, my father was sent home from hospital as his Doctor said he could do no more for his heart dissease. He went home to die, he was on oxygen 24/7. A few days later a friend dropped by, mentioned Chelation and my father went for treatments twice a week, With in 4 weeks, this man sent home to die was off the oxygen, in his wood shop building small pieces of furniture.
Now you tell me it don’t work!

I should also mention that the most doctors and Governments of USA & Canada dispute Chelation Therapy…WHY?? Because It DOES work and it works so well that the widespread use of it would put heart surgeons, drug companies etc out of business. The Gov would lose millions in taxes etc. There is BIG money in bypass surgery (hospital costs, doctor fees you get what I’m saying), heart medicine etc. It’s all a MONEY THING folks, believe it!
