Negative Positive
Title: Alas, all the worst sort of bunkum
Review: Asked to check into chelation therapy for some ailing friends and relatives, I did, hoping very much to find something that would offer hope and help to those who were moving beyond the capacity of conventional treatment to cure.Regretfully I found absolutely no evidence beyond the hype of chelationist ads and the desperate hopes of the ill that chelation therapy is anything other than the worst sort of snake oil.There have in the last several years been several excellent studies done to determine the efficacy of chelation therapy. Not one demonstrates any effect beyond that caused by caring health care workers and hope. While those effects are interesting, they are not life saving.For a sobering and very fair discussion, go to the Quackwatch site, http://www.quackwatch.org/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/chelation.htmlMy best wishes to all.
Is the review positive or negative?
