Chelation Therapy in Surat
Advanced EDTA chelation for heavy metal detoxification and cardiovascular wellness
Paras Ozone Therapy Centre offers professional EDTA chelation therapy - a safe, effective treatment for removing toxic heavy metals from your body and supporting cardiovascular health. Dr. Vishal Shah brings specialized training in chelation protocols, making our clinic one of the few in Surat offering this advanced integrative therapy.
In today's industrialized world, toxic heavy metal exposure is nearly unavoidable - from contaminated water, industrial pollution, pesticides in food, dental amalgams, cookware, and environmental sources. These metals (lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, aluminum) accumulate in your body over years, contributing to chronic health problems including cardiovascular disease, neurological issues, kidney problems, chronic fatigue, and accelerated aging.
Chelation therapy uses EDTA (ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid), a synthetic amino acid administered intravenously, to bind with heavy metals and minerals in your bloodstream and tissues, allowing them to be safely eliminated through urine. Originally developed to treat lead poisoning, chelation has expanded use for cardiovascular support, chronic disease management, and general detoxification.
At Paras Clinic, we follow established chelation protocols with comprehensive pre-treatment testing, personalized treatment plans, careful monitoring, and nutritional support to ensure safe, effective results. Whether you're dealing with diagnosed heavy metal toxicity, cardiovascular concerns, or seeking preventive detoxification in Surat's industrial environment, chelation therapy offers scientifically-backed solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is chelation therapy scientifically proven?
EDTA chelation is FDA-approved and universally accepted for heavy metal poisoning (lead, mercury, etc.). For cardiovascular use, evidence is mixed - the TACT trial showed modest benefits for heart disease patients, especially diabetics. Many integrative physicians report excellent clinical results. It's considered alternative/complementary for cardiovascular use, but has decades of safe use and patient improvement supporting its value.
How do I know if I have heavy metal toxicity?
Testing is essential. We can order blood testing for metals, or more sensitive urine provocation testing (give a chelating agent and measure what comes out in urine over 6-24 hours). Symptoms like unexplained fatigue, brain fog, chronic pain, and digestive issues may suggest toxicity, especially with exposure history. Dr. Shah evaluates your case individually.
How many chelation sessions will I need?
This depends on your toxic burden and treatment goals. Typical protocols: 10-20 sessions for mild toxicity or prevention, 20-30 sessions for cardiovascular support or moderate toxicity, 30-40+ sessions for significant heavy metal burden. Sessions are done 1-2 times weekly initially, spreading out as treatment progresses. Some patients do periodic maintenance sessions long-term.
Does chelation hurt?
No, chelation itself is painless. The IV needle insertion feels like any IV start - brief pinch. Once infusion begins, you simply relax for 1.5-3 hours. Most patients read, use their phone, or even nap during treatment. No pain during or after.
Can I continue my regular medications during chelation?
Usually yes, but this must be discussed with Dr. Shah. Certain medications may need timing adjustments. Diabetics may need medication adjustment as chelation can lower blood sugar. Blood pressure medications may need adjustment as chelation can lower BP. Never stop prescribed medications without your doctor's guidance.
What's the cost of chelation therapy?
Costs vary based on protocol length and additional testing/supplements needed. During consultation, Dr. Shah will outline expected number of sessions and total investment. Many patients find chelation cost-effective compared to ongoing medications or medical procedures for chronic conditions.
Are there dietary restrictions during chelation?
No strict restrictions, but we recommend nutrient-dense diet rich in antioxidants, adequate protein, plenty of water, and avoiding new toxin exposure (processed foods, alcohol excess, contaminated fish). Take prescribed mineral supplements as directed.
Can chelation help with atherosclerosis and heart disease?
Many patients report improved cardiovascular symptoms - better exercise tolerance, reduced angina, improved circulation. The TACT clinical trial showed modest benefits, especially for diabetics with heart disease. While not a replacement for conventional cardiology care, chelation can be valuable complementary support for cardiovascular health.
Is chelation therapy safe?
Yes, when properly administered with appropriate screening and monitoring. Dr. Shah follows established safety protocols including pre-treatment kidney function testing, proper EDTA dosing, adequate hydration, mineral supplementation, and regular monitoring. Millions of chelation treatments have been safely given worldwide. Serious side effects are very rare with proper protocols.
What areas of Surat do you serve?
Our clinic in Adajan serves all areas of Surat including Vesu, Athwa, Varachha, Katargam, Udhna, Piplod, City Light Road, and beyond. Chelation therapy is specialized treatment not widely available in Surat - patients come from across the city and region.
