    Yes, the treatment was 100% safe, and the patient died.

    Not if the patient's condition was mild, and chronic, rather than at
    any acute stage.

    You may make that distinction, but the charlatans who sell such things a
    chelation for ASHD, etc. do not. In those cases, the bodies can pile up.

    If you could clarify the situation, briefly, that would be helpful.

    Is that a mild, chronic illness?

    Who are the people that die, and why?

    Chronic yes, mild no. The first symptom is often a fatal heart attack.

    The ones who don't know they have the condition, and the ones who know they
    have it but don't pursue treatment that's actually effective.

    As in, We can find nothing wrong. It isn't in the little black receipe book.

    It's all in you head, you imagined it.

    chelation instead of real care

    Jan, I suffer from a somatization disorder. I have anxiety attacks. It
    is all in my head. It is real. Please stop saying that things that are
    only in the head are not real.

    If you could clarify the situation, briefly, that would be helpful.

    Is that a mild, chronic illness?

    Arteriosclerotic heart disease. todya, the treatment that is used is CABG,
    coronary artery bypass grafting, which has been shown to be effective in
    restoring blood flow to the myocardium (the heart muscle)..

    The alternative approach is chelation which has never been shown to increase
    blood flow or decrease the amount of narrowing of coronary vessels.

    Quoted message said:


    Who are the people that die, and why?

    The people who die are those who suffer a massive coronary thinking that
    chelation has cured the underlying disease. Ihave looked at dozen of
    webistes where chelation is offered and I have yet to see a disclaimer where
    the salesperson/doctor says that chelation has never been shown to open
    narrowed arteries.

    Chronic yes, mild no. The first symptom is often a fatal heart attack.

    In fact, in men, for the majority of patients with atherosclerotic heart
    disease, the first symptom is a heart attack (nonfatal or fatal).

    Yep.
