Clarification on Duration of Heavy Metal Detoxification
(±2004) Dear Dr. Gordon,
This response seems to contradict my present understanding of your current "teaching" regarding the use of EDD. Are you saying that by taking it for a year that ALL mercury is removed from the body? I find this hard to believe! Please explain and advise.
Dear Doctor:
Thank you for raising the issue about the duration needed for effective heavy metal detoxification. Of course, you are technically correct in reminding me that I teach everyone that detoxification really is a lifetime problem.
Since our bones take from 7-20 years to be entirely replaced, and since that is the major storehouse in our bodies of lead, containing on average 1000 times more lead than bones found on earth 400 years ago, then short term detoxification such as the one year I mentioned will NOT really remove ALL the available heavy metals that we need to get out. We know today that there is NO SAFE level of lead; therefore, those who understand this will focus on SAFE and cost effective therapies that can be taken for YEARS, if not for a lifetime.
My point, however, was by using EDD continuously for 1 year of EDD, you will have been keeping plasma, blood and extracellular fluid levels of lead, etc. so LOW that all tissues, including the brain, are able to continuously download from their area of relatively higher concentration of toxic metals to the relatively cleaner fluid compartments.
After doing this for a year an adequate level of cleaning has occurred so that, in my experience, the PRESENTING SYMPTOMS, whether we are talking about learning disorders, impaired immunity, chronic fatigue, cardiovascular or whatever, are LARGELY relieved. After that interval a lower MAINTENANCE level of detoxification, which is more affordable, could be appropriate.
I have no intention myself of going even a day without my Beyond Chelation packet AM and PM, now that we know that so far everyone tested on this product, using it twice daily, has been shown to have the lowest levels of viscosity ever recorded. This is what we can state using the equipment developed by Rheologics (www.rheologics.com). For more than 10 years Dr. Ken Kensey, cardiologist and president, has seen millions of dollars of effort and research to bring accurate, real time, repeatable blood viscosity testing into the doctors office! He believes, and many leaders in academic cardiology agree with him, that this will become far more important than testing blood pressure, for ALL areas of medicine!
Reversal of plaque occurs naturally as the altered shear stress on vessel walls permits healing of the plaque that he has demonstrated are more like calluses forming in response to irritation, much as someone working with a shovel develops in response to that form of irritation on their hands. This knowledge, along with what we now know about LOW viscosity, really means…NO MORE HEART ATTACKS OR STROKES.
Sincerely,
Garry F. Gordon, MD,DO,MD(H)
