Arsenic

 

Arsenic toxicity has been recognized for centuries, and hair shows significant correlation with intake. Arsenic toxicity manifests with various symptoms including macrocytosis and neuropathy. Data show that cereals are a major source of arsenic during infancy and that changes in hair arsenic levels during infancy correspond to the introduction of cereals into the diet.

The greatest dangers from chronic arsenic exposure are lung and skin cancers and gradual poisoning, most frequently from living near metal smelting plants or arsenic factories. Arsenic toxicity has been recognized for centuries, and hair shows significant correlation with intake.

When arsenic enters the environment:

It doesn't evaporate.
Most arsenic compounds can dissolve in water.
It gets into air when contaminated materials are burned.
It settles from the air to the ground.
It doesn't break down, but can change from one form to another
Fish and shellfish build up organic arsenic in their tissues, but most of the arsenic in fish isn't toxic.

Risk of Exposure:

Breathing sawdust or burning smoke from wood containing arsenic
Breathing workplace air
Ingesting contaminated water, soil, or air at waste sites
Ingesting contaminated water, soil, or air near areas naturally high in arsenic
Inorganic arsenic is a human poison. Organic arsenic is less harmful.
High levels of inorganic arsenic in food or water can be fatal. A high level is 60 parts of arsenic per million parts of food or water (60 ppm). Arsenic damages many tissues including nerves (peripheral polyneuropathy, axonal degeneration), stomach and intestines, and skin. Breathing high levels can give you a sore throat and irritated lungs. All arsenicals except arsine act by inhibiting sulfhydryl enzyme systems required for cell metabolism and the potency of action depends on the valency of the arsenic atom. Arsine reacts with haemoglobin to form a very strong haemolytic poison.

Kelatox is a rectal, time released suppository with added anti oxidants that bind and remove harmful heavy metals from your body while supplying added nutrients. Kelatox brand of suppositories use 900 mg of Calcium Disodium EDTA in a Cocoa Butter base with methocel E4M premium USP for a time release effect. Each suppository will dissolve through body heat and gradually spread over the lining of the colon and be absorbed directly into the blood stream in approximately 90-120 minutes.

EDTA is a synthetic amino acid first manufactured in the 1940's that has proven to be the best broad based heavy metal chelator with very few adverse effects. The half life of EDTA is 20-60 minutes and is excreted primarily by the kidneys within 24 hours but may also be excreted through the bowels. Almost none of the EDTA is metabolized. Since the vast majority of the EDTA will be broken down and not utilized while taken orally, the rectal route of administration is very effective. By using suppositories, the EDTA bypasses the gastro-intestinal tract which means very little will be destroyed by the acids and enzymes in the GI tract allowing for a very high utilization rate. Also, by using a suppository a majority of the EDTA will bypass the liver and kidneys on first pass putting less stress on those organs and allowing the EDTA plus anti-oxidants to remain in the body longer giving it a better chance to bind with harmful metals.
