Do you still have that URL or URLs? I've got someone who's worried
about kidney stones I'd like to pass it along to.


Well,

I had started in Wikipedia and branched off from a link there. I
can't seem to retrace my steps.
However, Googling I found:

Q. Does EDTA play a role in treating kidney stones?


Ah, my mistake; I thought you were talking about *fasting* as an
approach to dealing with kidney stones. Guess that's why I didn't find
much in my Wikipedia search. I'll check out this EDTA thing, though;
thanks.

Arterial plaque and now kidney stones. Thanks for expanding my
horizons!

I wonder if EDTA would have a similar effect on gallstones. Consider
that gallstones tend to form while on low fat but staying on low fat
does not trigger their release. Low carb tends to prevent gall stones
from forming. But if a person starts out for years on low fat then
switches to low carb (a very common situation) any gallstones formed
during the low fat years tend to get released. I've read several
claims
of doctors blaming low carb for gall stone attacks because of this
sequence. If EDTA dissolves gallstones it might be suggested during
Induction ...

Vitacost has several products.


Has anyone tried Vitacost EDTA? Or other Vitacost products?

Dr Atkins suggested chelation therapy to reverse arterial plaque. He

oral chelation but I've not yet purchased any to try it out.


Dr. William Davis is a cardiologist specializing in preventative work
reducing coronary arterial plaque as measured by heart scan scores.

I don't agree with everything he says, but probably moreso than
Bernstein on diabetes or Atkins on much of anything, so I recommend him
highly: http://heartscanblog.blogspot.com/

He's had patients try chelation therapy without success at reducing
heart scan scores:
