Chelation therapy by using liquids,gels or tablets to remove or rid the body of toxic chemicals is undervalued. Chelation can be used to cleanse the body of smoke inhalation, toxins, lead, arsenic ect.  In situations of battery ingestion when ethylenediaminetracetic-acid (EDTA) is used intravenously, this can perhaps the rid body of harmful polarities that discharge and toxins that have been ingested which makes the body prone to dangerous rhythms to the heart and damage to vital organs.

The dilution and removal of harmful chemicals from the body by chelation will eventually rid and reduce such incidents of toxins and poisons to the body and their long term effects. Chelation therapy in these situations may prove to be beneficial by reducing the risk of cancer causing agents to the body by harmful smoke and toxin inhalation.  This includes acid ingestion and using chelation as a means to reduce harmful polarization to the heart and other bodily organs. Chelation therapy may reduce the risk of malignant disease and the spreading of it.
