IV Nutrition Detox and Chelation Therapy in Cancer
A healthy diet rich in nutrients is the best way to nourish the body.
I have observed in my practice as functional medicine practitioner, most of the patients suffering from cancer are found to be very low on nutrients and high on toxic heavy metals, poor liver, kidney function, poor dental health, amalgam fillings, leaky gut, immune dysfunction, inability to detox due to low sulfur levels, leading to inflammatory reactions which in turn leads to manifestation of the symptoms and tumor formation. If the underlying chemistry is not addressed it leads to metastasis in the whole body!
It’s surprising that fatal disease such as cancer, is due to such basic lack of understanding on part of the patients and it leads them to stray due to various therapies available, which do not address the root cause.
I have been treating my patients for last 7 years in a different way than the conventional practitioners, by addressing the root cause, trying to understand the risks associated with their current health status and providing them with a plan to prevent chronic diseases.
I have observed that once disease is established, metabolic correction with IV detox and nutrition therapy is the best way.
It gives fastest recovery to the metabolism as compared to oral nutrient therapy.
IV Nutrition therapy has given me enormous fulfillment in terms of the patient outcome when treating cancer patients.
I have seen inflammatory markers go down as I give up-to 10 sessions of IV nutrients, Glutathione and EDTA chelation customized to each patient as and where required.
I advise my patients Nutraceutical supplementation, dietary guidelines and IV Nutrition & Detox therapies as follows:
High dose vitamin c: Lifelong maintenance for cancer patients is needed on this therapy.
It typically involves slow IV over a period of 1 to 2 hours.
EDTA chelation: for extracellular heavy metal removal it works best for patients who have high levels of heavy metals in urine on challenge test.
Glutathione: It is a master detox and when given IV works very well for intra cellular detoxification.
COQ10: Added to detox drip supports mitochondrial health
Alfa lipoic acid: Antioxidant to tackle free radical damage
N acetyl cystein: Naturally boosts level of Glutathione in cells.
