In this edition, Townsend’s publisher takes another look at the Cochrane review on using face masks during pandemics, introduces this issue’s case study on EDTA chelation therapy to treat arterial ulcer, and makes a request.

Despite the court decision in Alliance for Natural Health v. Sebelius, FDA regulatory rules continue to favor censorship of evidence-backed health claims of nutrients, such as selenium and its role in cancer prevention.

An elderly woman with an arterial ulcer on her ankle, due to poor blood circulation, responds to EDTA chelation therapy.

Although EDTA chelation has long been used to remove heavy metals, such as lead, from the body, the TACT study was the first large, randomized trial to find that the therapy reduced the risk of cardiovascular events in patients who had already had a heart attack.

Billing and coding policies from CMS and other insurers are preventing otolaryngic and environmental allergists from providing patients with immunotherapy that effectively addresses their total allergy load.

An extract of plasmalogen (a phospholipid) from scallops improved cognitive function in people with mild cognitive impairment in this small pilot study.

This updated edition about niacin (vitamin B3) and its role in preventing and treating a range of disorders, including arthritis, cardiovascular disease, and mental illness, contains protocol details and observations from doctors who use orthomolecular medicine.
