DMPS Chelation
DMPS stands for “2,3-dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid sodium”, also known as Dimovol. DMPS is a synthetic amino acid chelating agent used to get rid of toxic heavy metals during DMPS chelation.
DMPS forms a water soluble complex with heavy metals. It is the removed from the body through the kidneys, liver, gastrointestinal tract.
DMPS chelation is given via IV, thats intravenously. It needs to be administered by a doctor certified to use it. There is much anecdotal evidence on the internet talking about the dangers or DMPS. One should really research DMPS chelation before going ahead and starting a chelation schedule. Many people describe very serious health risks associated with DMPS chelation. At the very least, you should have it administered by a licensed doctor who has done MANY of the treatments. People are very sensitive to drip rate and over dosage therefore a very experienced doctor is needed.
In the United States it is classed by the FDA as ‘experimental’, this is hardly reassuring. DMPS chelation is also very expensive, costing several thousand dollars. Perhaps a better form of oral chelation is using DMSA which has been certified by the FDA since 1992 as ‘safe and beneficial’. DMSA can be readily bought on the internet without a prescription and is take in capsule form. There are almost no side effects or interaction effects noted for DMSA. Searching on the internet will reveal no health concerns related to DMSA chelation.
As always, when your health is of concern its best to research all things possible before putting something in your body. DMPS chelation is a procedure best left to licensed medical doctors well trained specifically in DMPS chelation procedures.
The oral chelation protocol using DMSA Synergy is a simple 3 day “on” DMSA and 11 days “off” DMSA protocol.
