Nutritional Therapy centers on the idea that real health can be achieved through a holistic and bio-individual approach to nutrition and lifestyle. We believe that many of modern society’s health problems result from weaknesses in the body’s physiological foundations brought on by poor nutrition. Medical nutrition therapy is an evidence-based, individualized nutrition process meant to help treat certain medical conditions. Nutritional therapy instructs individuals on how to use their diet to best support their medical conditions. It not only addresses existing medical conditions but also attempts to lower the risk of new complications.

Iron chelators for human disease has focused primarily on their use in the treatment of secondary iron overload, chelators also may be useful anti-tumor agents. They can deplete iron or cause oxidative stress in the tumor due to redox perturbations in its environment. Iron chelators have been tested for their anti-tumor activity in cell culture experiments, animal models, and human clinical trials. Largely for pragmatic reasons, clinical studies of the anti-tumor activity of iron chelators have generally focused on desferrioxamine (DFO), a drug approved for the treatment of iron overload. These studies have shown that DFO can retard tumor growth in many different experimental contexts. However, the activity of DFO is modest, and advances in the use of chelators as anti-cancer agents will require the development of new chelators based on new paradigms. Examples of iron chelators that have shown promising anti-tumor activity (in various stages of development) include heterocyclic carboxaldehyde thiosemicarbazones, analogs of pyridoxal isonicotinoyl hydrazone, tachpyridine, O-trensox, desferrithiocin, and other natural and synthetic chelators. Apart from their use as single agents, chelators may also synergize with other anti-cancer therapies. The development of chelators as anticancer agents is largely an unexplored field but has extraordinary potential to impact human cancer.

Chelation Therapy

​​A traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture is most commonly used to treat pain. Acupuncture involves the insertion of very thin needles through your skin at strategic points on your body. Western practitioners consider acupuncture points to stimulate nerves, muscles, and connective tissue. It is believed that the stimulation boosts the body's natural painkillers. Acupuncture, the Chinese believe, is for balancing the flow of energy or life force – chi (chee) – believed to flow through the body’s pathways. By inserting needles into specific points along these meridians, acupuncture practitioners believe that your energy flow will re-balance.
