Chelation After a Nuclear Event, by S.F.

Editor’s Introductory Note: For those who are not familiar, there is this general background, from the Infogalactic Wiki:

Chelation therapy is a medical procedure that involves the administration of chelating agents to remove heavy metals from the body. Chelation therapy has a long history of use in clinical toxicology^[1] and remains in use for some very specific medical treatments, although it is administered under very careful medical supervision due to various inherent risks.^[2]

Chelation therapy must be administered with care as it has a number of possible side effects, including death.^[3] In response to increasing use of chelation therapy as alternative medicine and in circumstances in which the therapy should not be used in conventional medicine, various health organizations have confirmed that medical evidence does not support the effectiveness of chelation therapy for any purpose other than the treatment of heavy metal poisoning.

First, I’m not an NBC specialist, but I do know a good deal about chelation.  In the current political environment, the risk of a nuclear incident is increasing by the day. This can be from nuclear detonations or the targeting of nuclear power plants.  As such, here are some thoughts.

Regarding some of the more common radioactive isotopes, let us consider:

• Iodine
• Cesium
• Strontium
• Ruthenium

…and the F-Block elements:

• Europium
• Uranium
• Plutonium

There are three points that I’d like to make, above and beyond the PPP, 7/10 rule, Potassium Iodide/Iodate as thyroid blockers, water filters, and the like which have already been addressed in SurvivalBlog.

Point 1:

For any of these radioactive elements, you are more at risk if you are deficient in a nutritional element that is closely related to or identical to it.

These radioactive elements may be somewhat mitigated by the following dietary supplements:

The common deficiencies that we find in most people are: iodine, calcium, and magnesium.

The only iron that I recommend is lactoferrin  — a protein in milk and colostrum.

This takes us to the  F-Block series:

• Europium
• Uranium
• Plutonium

As these all accumulate in the bone, again consider consider calcium.

Point 2:

How to chelate them out?  EDTA is the most commonly available chelator, but it is not the best.  It is a linear chelator (which is inherently weaker)  with only 6 bonding sites.  A newer chelator, DOTA with 9 bonding sites in a macrocyclic arrangement (which is inherently more stable) is many orders of magnitude more powerful.  You can find DOTA in a product called Captimet at www.remedylink.com. I originally began working with DOTA to support people with Gadolinium poisoning, but found that DOTA can bind to many toxic metals, including the F-Block series.

If you can chelate by whatever means quickly enough, then a water-soluble chelator like DOTA may be sufficient.  If you wait and it gets into the brain, then you will need a lipid-soluble chelator and while that is in the works, it is still several months away.

If you have no choice, fresh chlorophyll (store-bought will not work) from juiced grasses is a fat-soluble chelator.  In this case, juice wheatgrass (you know how to grow wheatgrass from your wheat kernels right?), and drink 1 cup at the same time as taking your first dose of DOTA or EDTA.  In this manner, you might be able to get the metals out of the brain, then when they are in the blood and redistribute, the DOTA or EDTA grabs them and escorts them out.  If you cannot do that, then replace the wheatgrass juice with a sauna.  Not high heat, just enough to get you sweating.

If you use a chelator, consider 300mg every 4 hours for one day.  If the chelator you are using does not contain calcium, take some with it.  You should drink enough water to urinate like a racehorse.  Fiber can somewhat help keep enterohepatic reabsorption of toxins released into the bile from being reabsorbed in the small intestine.  Consider taking a day off and repeat for three days, then a day off, then repeating again.

If you are re-exposed, then re-chelate.  While there are many chelators on the market, you want a hard chelator (like DOTA, or if you must, EDTA) for hard metals (like the F-Block, cesium, and strontium).  Soft chelators like DMSA, DMPS, and others won’t work as well.  They are better for soft metals like mercury.

Point 3:

While it is best not to inhale radioactive particles in the first place, those that get into the alveolar sacs rely on lung surfactants to be removed.  If you want to support your lung surfactants, consider our Alvectin product.

Are these shameless plugs?  No.  I just want to see good folk around to help rebuild civilization.  Money won’t be worth much anyway, the way things are going.
