1. Plaquex IV Therapy
Plaquex is a patented intravenous lipid therapy containing DLPC, a critical component of all cell membranes. When infused, it is used by the body to repair damaged cell membranes throughout the body. It has been shown to reduce arterial plaque, improve or eliminate symptoms of coronary artery disease and atherosclerosis, lower coronary artery calcium deposits, enhance liver and kidney function, and improve skin appearance. It is literally called the "wonder molecule" as it improves the health of any cell in the body. Typically we will do 20-50 weekly or biweekly treatments. If done for coronary artery disease, we will order a preliminary Coronary CT Angiogram to document the extent of arterial plaque and repeat it after the treatment is complete to determine the amount of improvement and whether more treatments are required.
2. Vitamin and Rehydration IV
This IV is perfect for rehydrating your body after any cause of dehydration such as excess alcohol, hangovers, loss of fluids from nausea and vomiting or diarrhea, dehydration after exercising in the heat. Unlike trying to orally rehydrate, this IV helps you recover quickly and feel back to normal within minutes. We include all needed electrolytes and vitamins. This vitamin IV is added to our chelation treatments with glutathione.
3. Chelation Therapy with IV EDTA
Chelation therapy is an FDA-approved and effective way of removing toxic heavy metals from your body. Recent randomized trials have also shown benefit in patients with coronary artery disease. Heavy metals include Mercury, Lead, Cadmium, Arsenic, Aluminum, Gadolinium, and others. Since heavy metal toxicity or arterial disease are serious medical conditions, we require that you undergo our new patient intake process including a thorough history and physical by Dr. Kaye and have appropriate testing to document heavy metal toxicity before treatment.
Patients with autoimmune disease, cardiovascular disease, chronic fatigue, and neurological disorders have been reported to improve after chelation to remove heavy metals from their body. Typically, you will need at least 6 and as many as 24 treatments, depending on the level of heavy metals in your body. Sources of Mercury contamination include dental amalgam fillings, air pollution, certain fish such as tuna and swordfish. Lead is found in old paint, leaded gas. Arsenic is commonly found in polluted water from wells or seafood, and Cadmium is found in certain foods. Gadolinium is from MRI contrast. To learn more about our chelation treatments, click here.
