What If The Primary Test For Heart Disease Caused Heart Disease?

The Enemies Of Health

Would it worry you to know that the doctor who is supposed to save your life is killing you?

They tell you that you may have heart disease, and that you should have a test!  You think the doctor knows best, so you agree.  They give you an “angiogram,” and increase the chances that you will have a heart attack!  That is the direction of much of modern medicine today.  This article reveals the truth about dangerous diagnostic technology — and gives you the less expensive, more accurate, and safer alternative — the one your doctor won’t tell you about!

I’m going to be suggesting you get an ultrasound test long before you ever consider a biopsy or knife.  CLICK HERE (http://www.karlloren.com/biopsy/p102.htm) for information on where I, Karl Loren, got my own ultrasound test.

This article can save your life!

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you didn’t have to guess about the condition of your arteries?  Your heart?

Man has ever been interested in what goes on inside the body.  Thousands of years ago a Greek doctor, by the name of Galen, “announced” that there were two types of blood, one made by the liver and the other by the heart.

The Greek View Of Blood Flow

Galen, a Greek physician who lived in the second century AD., spent his lifetime in observation of the human body and its functioning. Galen believed and taught his students that there were two distinct types of blood. ‘Nutritive blood’ was thought to be made by the liver and carried through veins to the organs, where it was consumed. ‘Vital blood’ was thought to be made by the heart and pumped through arteries to carry the “vital spirits.” Galen believed that the heart acted not to pump blood, but to suck it in from the veins. Galen also believed that blood flowed through the septum of the heart from one ventricle to the other through a system of tiny pores. He did not know that the blood left each ventricle through arteries.  [Source] (http://www.karlloren.com/ultrasound/p35.htm#galen)

Galen’s view of blood was wrong, but it was the only “science” Western man had for more than a thousand years.  Galen based much of his research and conclusions on dissection.  But, soon after his time, dissection was considered a sin.  So, Galen observed wrongly, based on techniques (dissection) that might have been appropriate, and then with these wrong observations announced his theories of blood flow as “law.”  Then, dissection as a technique was announced a sin!  Click here (http://www.karlloren.com/ultrasound/p37.htm) for a more philosophical explanation of Galen’s findings.  Click here (http://www.karlloren.com/ultrasound/p68.htm) to review a summary page on the history of internal examination.  The history of modern diagnostic concepts – click here. (http://www.karlloren.com/ultrasound/p67.htm)

You can see how this would close off scientific discovery!

How Would You Like Dead Cats Thrown On Your Porch?

Then, a thousand years later, another doctor came along, Dr. Harvey, living in England.  He lived at a time when it was still considered VERY improper to use dissection to explore the inside of a body.  He did it, nonetheless, and realized from his examination of the “little tubes” he found (arteries), and the heart, that there was just no way that the blood could flow back and forth, under the influence of the moon, or any other foolish notion, including that “law” of Dr. Galen.

While acting as court physician, Harvey was able to conduct his research in human biology and physiology. Harvey focused much of his research on the mechanics of blood flow in the human body. Most physicians of the time felt that the lungs were responsible for moving the blood around throughout the body. Harvey questioned these beliefs and his questions directed his life-long scientific investigations. [Source] (http://www.karlloren.com/ultrasound/p35.htm#harvey)

This notion of blood flow from the past was, he said, crazy. But, he was ahead of his time.  He was ostracized.  People threw dead cats (the product and evidence of dissection) on his doorstep.

The famous quote at the time was, “I would rather be wrong with Galen than right with Harvey.” [painting] (http://www.karlloren.com/ultrasound/p38.htm) Also, click here (http://www.karlloren.com/ultrasound/p39.htm) to see a painting from about 1300, showing the religious prohibition to dissection.

And so “science” continued to suffer from blindness and stupidity.

“Science” is a little better off today, but even today scientists are still trying to look inside the body and figure out what is happening.  The drug industry has taken over from the Church in establishing the politically correct methods of medical research.

For instance, there are still millions of doctors and scientists who believe that “chelation” is not a valid therapy, and that you cannot improve blood flow except through surgery or drugs.  If chelation were widely accepted, there would be, literally, many billions of dollars lost to the drugs and surgeons that are getting it now.

EDTA’s Multiple Uses as a Food Additive

In addition to its remarkable pharmaceutical uses, the FDA has also approved EDTA as a food additive that is generally recognized as safe (GRAS). EDTA’s array of biochemical properties makes it extremely valuable as a food additive.

It has the ability to: (1) bind with many metals; (2) act synergistically with other antioxidants to stabilize fats and oils; (3) prevent discoloration of potato products; (4) stabilize vitamins; (5) prevent discoloration of fish and shellfish; (6) prevent flavor changes in milk; (7) inhibit the thickening of stored condensed milk; (8) enhance the foaming properties of reconstituted skim milk; (9) prevent color changes of scrambled eggs prepared from egg powder; (10) preserve canned legumes; (11) prevent gushing in beer; (12) promote flavor retention and delay loss of carbonation in soft drinks; (13) prevent oxidation of meat products; and (14) prevent discoloration of canned fruits and vegetables.7, 8

In fact, EDTA’s use in foods is so widespread that its presence in bloody evidence even created questions during the O.J. Simpson trial as to its source-i.e., from food or from blood previously drawn as evidence – since EDTA is also used as an anticoagulant in blood used for laboratory studies.

Absorption of Oral EDTA

In 1954, Dr. Harry Foreman and his colleagues performed a landmark study to determine how much orally administered EDTA the body absorbs.9 The scientists found that the body absorbs a maximum of 5 per cent of orally consumed EDTA (Fig. 2) and that it can take up to three days for the EDTA to be totally excreted.

If someone consumed nutritional supplements that contained 800 mg of EDTA (used as a stabilizer of the ingredients in the supplement), then we can assume from Dr. Foreman’s research that about 40 mg will be absorbed each day and that 1,200 mg will be absorbed each month. That equates to almost the same amount of EDTA administered in one intravenous chelation treatment using the low-dose optimum protocol of Drs. Born and Geurkink10 that was described in last month’s Nutritional News.

Consequently, those unable to obtain intravenous chelation therapy due to financial, occupational, geographical or other restraints, or who wish to undergo a less-intensive preventive approach may be able to obtain many of the same benefits of intravenous chelation therapy by consuming food-additive EDTA that is used as a stabilizer in food supplements.

Because of concern that long-term use of EDTA might result in depletion of certain elements, Drs. Ira Manville and Robin Moser recommended that a potent vitamin and mineral formula be administered during treatment with EDTA.11 (This should be taken with meals and not with the EDTA formula.) Dr. Garry Gordon agrees and also recommends that because EDTA binds to nutritional as well as to unwanted metallic elements, it is most effective when taken on an empty stomach.12 (1 hr before or 2-3 hours after a meal.)

On a previous page intravenous EDTA chelation therapy was discussed. This issue continues with a discussion of EDTA’s protective and enhancing effects as a food additive on foods and food supplements, as well as some clinically tested uses of oral EDTA.

The Food and Drug Administration has approved the synthetic amino acid, ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA), as a pharmaceutical agent for the treatment of lead and other heavy metal poisoning or exposure. In older literature, the FDA also approved intravenous EDTA treatment as “possibly effective in occlusive vascular disorders … arrhythmias and atrioventricular induction defects … and in the treatment of pathologic conditions to which calcium tissue deposits or hypercalcemia may contribute other than those listed above.”1

These “possibly effective” indications were removed from FDA-approved literature in the late 1970′s for reasons known only to the FDA. Fortunately, physicians are not limited solely to FDA-approved indications and may prescribe approved drugs for whatever “unapproved” conditions they find them to be effective. Consequently, since EDTA is approved for the treatment of heavy metal poisoning (especially lead), many physicians continue to use pharmaceutical EDTA with great benefit in many diseases and conditions other than their officially approved uses. There are two medical associations whose physician members are trained in the administration of EDTA for the treatment and prevention of atherosclerosis and other chronic degenerative diseases.

These organizations are the American College for Advancement in Medicine (800-532-3688) and the Great Lakes Association of Clinical Medicine (800-286-6013). Members of these organizations and their patients find that EDTA chelation therapy is highly effective as an alternative or addition to more traditional / widely accepted approaches such as angioplasty or bypass surgery.

Beneficial Uses of Oral EDTA in Cardiovascular Disease
In addition to the controversial but widespread recognition of EDTA’s intravenous benefits, is its less well-known clinical uses when administered orally. Early clinical studies with EDTA reported loss of fat in rats, reduction of cholesterol in rabbits, and reduced blood pressure in humans.

Consequently, a study of the effects of oral EDTA on patients with atherosclerosis and/or hypertension was conducted on 10 patients. Four of these patients had hypertension, four had angina pectoris, one had peripheral vascular disease (intermittent claudication), and one was recovering from a heart attack. All were treated with 1 gm of oral EDTA daily for 3 months. Seven of the ten patients experienced significant reductions in their cholesterol levels, and blood pressure was reduced in all ten. The most marked change occurred in the patient with intermittent claudication, whose cholesterol dropped from 278 mg per 100 ml to 128! This patient also reported improved exercise tolerance, and the researchers found improved pulsations in the extremities. The four patients with angina pectoris also all reported improvement.2

In another series of 20 patients who suffered from hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, angina or peripheral vascular disease, one gram of EDTA was administered orally every day for 3 months. During that short time, elevated cholesterol levels in nine of the patients dropped to within the normal range. No adverse results were experienced by any of the patients. Angina attacks were reduced in frequency and severity in five individuals. One person who previously had suffered a heart attack and experienced several angina attacks daily thereafter, obtained complete relief.3



In another study, two patients with extremely elevated cholesterol were treated with oral EDTA. One patient took EDTA in progressively increasing doses ranging from 500 mg to 4 gm daily for one year, and the other took 1,000 mg daily for three years (Fig 1). Although the first patient suffered a heart attack after three years of therapy, she recovered uneventfully, and had reduced angina pains and improved sense of well being with continued use of EDTA.

The second patient – in addition to hypercholesterolemia – had a condition known as xanthomatosis (yellowish papules in the skin, related to elevated blood lipids). She not only experienced dramatic reductions in her cholesterol levels with oral EDTA treatment, but her skin lesions completely resolved.4 Other laboratory studies (including kidney and liver function) remained normal throughout the study for both patients. This is further confirmation of the safety of oral EDTA, considering that doses as high as 4 gm daily were consumed.

Further support of the anti-atherosclerotic effects of oral EDTA are provided by Italian researchers who found that two grams of oral EDTA daily were effective in reducing blood cholesterol.5 Scientists at Wayne State University quantified reversal in atherosclerotic plaque in rabbits that were treated with daily subcu-taneous EDTA injections.6

(Continued From Part 3 of “Rapid Heart Beat and High Blood Pressure”)

By Karl Loren

Here are three different pages with excellent information about Magnesium.  Click on any one of them, then the next two, read and learn how easy it may well be for you to eliminate the rapid heart beat problem.

Peter Gillham has been in the vitamin business much longer than I have.  I count him as a friend.  He has had more good information about Magnesium than any other source I’ve ever seen.

What is Natural Calm?

The solution is to take the magnesium in a form where it is completely dissolved in WATER. In this form the magnesium assimilates fast into the body producing almost instant relief. Natural Calm is a product, which was developed especially for that reason. It handles the excess calcium in the body and gradually dissolves the calcium deposits and the calcified body parts giving a new lease of life. Natural Calm is a water-soluble magnesium powder, and provides the most assimilable, effective, fast-acting magnesium available. You make it fresh each time and it works better than any other form such as tablets or caps.

Magnesium can be taken on its own without side effects or liability. Magnesium taken on its own without any calcium will help you feel younger, more energetic, stronger, and give you a multitude of other benefits all as a result of the magnesium being present to do its job. To handle a magnesium deficiency it is best to take the magnesium on its own without any calcium. Then, only when the deficiency is handled, go back onto calcium and magnesium together. Stay alert for any need for extra magnesium or better yet take some on a regular basis.

His is also the only source of magnesium that I would trust.  I have no financial connection with Peter, but enthusiastically recommend his magnesium.

High Blood Pressure?

The source of magnesium, above, is a very safe and good test.  It often works to lower blood pressure — safe and cheap.

Also, potassium is very good for this.  I have many pages about potassium HERE. (http://www.oralchelation.com/ingred/blank7.htm)

Dear Karl,

This is a wonderful site.  I asked a question, and I got an immediate reply regarding magnesium and I just want to tell you that I got on the magnesium and my life has completely changed around in 4 days.

Thank you so much.

Vernie

Dear Vernie,

Wow!

You got it from Peter Gillham?

How about writing a success story I can publish on the page about magnesium?

I’m sure Peter would like to see it published, too.

Regards,

Karl Loren

I don’t know where I should send this message, but, I can tell you that I have fought my blood pressure problems for over 18 years, and I read about the magnesium which was sent to me and suggested to me by Karl saying I think you need magnesium.

I take one tablet a day along with my blood pressure pill and this is only the fourth day and I have had success.

Besides my ears no longer ring, my head always felt like I was under electric wires with the buzzing.

Thanks for your help.
