Iron Chelation Therapy Options in Iron Overload

Thomas D. Coates, MD, outlines some of the ways in which excess iron can be removed from the body, which includes initiating iron chelation therapy.

I was found to have iron overload. I was not a great candidate for phlebotomy, and pharmaceutical iron chelators seemed to have some nasty side effects. I have a medical background so looked into natural options. I took IP6, curcumin, Bragg ACV, green tea, lactoferrin, cabbage, and hardly ate beef or pork. I also did the Morley Robbins protocol to rectify some of the damage. It worked, took nearly one year, felt a lot better. The chelation symptoms were very strong, and I monitored my bloods regularly. My doctor just says 'hmmmmmm'...

Do you know what your iron/ferritin levels were at before natural chelators and after?

Lactoferrin is an iron regulator.

More than one chelator at same time works even better (edta, alb)

I have been taking 500mg of Curcumin every day to reduce my iron overload.
