TruChelate™ is designed to help the body eliminate damaging elements generated by oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in your body. The imbalance causes damage to organs and tissues and can result in chronic diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, and other inflammatory diseases.
Many factors contribute to oxidative stress and excess reactive free radical production: COVID illness, COVID injections, ionizing and non-ionizing (EMF, WiFi, microwaves) radiation, environmental toxins, air pollution, chemicals, pesticides on food, lifestyle factors such as diets high in sugar, fats, processed foods, alcohol use, smoking, recreational drugs and some Rx medications. These are things we can all be exposed to on a daily basis.
TruChelate™ features specialized detoxing ingredients and antioxidants that act together to support your health when your body is challenged by viral illnesses, inflammation from COVID shots, environmental toxins, heavy metals, and other causes of oxidative stress:
- EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) is a synthetic amino acid compound and perhaps the most well-known and often used intravenous chelating agent that work slowly in the body and best when combined with other chelating agents.
- Himalayan shilajit extract is a naturally occurring chelating phytocomplex whose humic substances have been shown to affect the distribution, metabolism, absorption and excretion of heavy metals, such as cadmium and lead. Himalayan Shilajit Extract (Asphaltum punjabinum) is a purified form of shilajit found in high mountain rocks, especially those of the Himalayan and Hindu Kush ranges of the Indian subcontinent. It is formed from decomposed plant material that has been preserved in the dark pressure of rocky crevasses. As the sun warms the rocks and the snow melts, the shilajit seeps out and is scraped from the stone by hand. Truth for Health Foundation’s shilajit is meticulously harvested at high altitudes to ensure the purest product possible. It is then low-temperature dried and tested to be free of pollutants. Shilajit has a rich history of use in the Indian ayurvedic and siddha systems of medicine, and it is known as a rasayana because of its rejuvenating qualities.* Modern research suggests that shilajit has powerful antioxidant activity. In an animal model, processed shilajit increased superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities in a dose-dependent manner.
- Chlorella is a naturally occurring micro-algae and an excellent source of chlorophyll—another detoxifying substance. The positive effect of chlorella supplementation on toxic metals, including methylmercury, cadmium, and lead, is supported by animal research. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8750902/
- Antioxidant-stimulating nutrients:
- Allicin has been shown to reduce cellular exposure to, or accumulation of, lead, cadmium, and mercury, and can positively affect detoxification pathways.
- o N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC) and Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) are well known for their antioxidant activity. Exposure to heavy metals increases free radical production and oxidative stress. Research suggests that there is a beneficial role for free radical scavengers in reducing the oxidative stress that is common with toxic metal exposure. NAC can interact with reactive oxygen species (ROS) and stimulate the body to produce glutathione. This can enhance cell survival after exposure to heavy metals or toxins. ALA may directly chelate or reduce the oxidative capacity of metals, such as copper, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury.
If you are concerned about acute or chronic daily exposure to these invisible “oxidative stress” triggers, then in addition to other detoxification strategies outlined in our treatment guides on our website, TruChelate™ may be an option to consider. TruChelate™ is intended for short-term detox use and must be taken as directed. Additional precautions: Individuals taking blood thinners, insulin, or other medication should discuss potential interactions with their healthcare practitioner. Do not take if you are pregnant or lactating. It is important to replenish iron, zinc, copper, cobalt and manganese when taking TruChelate™.
To your improving health!
