Oral chelation is similar to intravenous chelation -- the "oral" form is taken through the mouth while the "intravenous" form is taken as a needle into the arm, dripping a substance that, in the oral, enters through the mouth.
If you have never had intravenous chelation therapy (I have, by the way) you would be amazed at how casual it is. You will often see several people "sitting around," watching TV, playing cards, talking, each connected to a bottle with a tube and a needle in the arm. You can even pull the gadget with you while you go to the restroom. IV chelation typically takes about 3 hours per session.
The word "chelation" comes from the Greek root, "chele"
which means the claw of a lobster or crab -- thus "chelation" is a "grabbing"
action. Below I have described in very accurate terms the
sequential and preferential nature of a chelating substance.
The term "chelation" is used in two rather different ways. When you hear of "chelated minerals," that is a usage of the word that is different in some respects from the usage in the phrase "intravenous chelation therapy." Yet, the mechanics involved are the same. For information on how minerals are chelated, click here. In fact, that same click gets you to a page that even describes the mechanics of how "chelation" takes place as in "oral chelation" and "intravenous chelation therapy."
This
page emphasizes more the fact that heart disease is NOT caused by eating foods
that are high in cholesterol.
That was a lie invented for the primary purpose of selling cholesterol-lowering drugs. That lie has been around for so many years that the vast majority of people believe it. I won't try to disabuse you of any false information you might have on that HERE, but simply refer you to my book, some 400 pages in print, and now expanded to more than 2000 pages on the web.
Click on the image, or click here, to go to that book and read the entire story about the government supported fraud, by the drug companies, in the research about heart disease. Cholesterol lowering drugs have become one of the best-sellers in the entire range of drugs sold by several drug companies. If you really want more information on this fraud, click here to find a list of about 15 different pages on just one Karl Loren web site -- about "cholesterol-lowering drugs."
Vibrant Life sells three different versions of "oral chelation." This page describes how all three of them work -- the mechanics and scientific basis for this unique formulation which reverses the symptoms of heart disease and stroke.
"Life Glow Plus" is the standard for oral chelation in the world. This formula was introduced in 1999. Prior to that, for more than 15 years, the product was called, simply, "Life Glow." The original formula (Life Glow) required you to take 10 rather large tablets per day. The Life Glow Plus formula comes in capsules instead of tablets. Life Glow Plus is so much better than the previous formula that we are willing to suggest that you should take 20 capsules per day during an initial cleansing period (at least 90 days) and that, if financial conditions require, you can then go on a maintenance level of 10 capsules per day.
When our Life Glow was the only choice of oral chelation, some people wanted a smaller sized tablet and we developed "Life Glow Easy" as the same exact ingredients, but where they were spread out into 30 tablets instead of the normal ten tablets per day for Life Glow. We do not offer Life Glow Easy any longer. The new capsules in Life Glow Plus are so easy to swallow, and the new formula would increase the "Life Glow Easy" to even more than 30 tablets per day -- so this product will be removed from our next catalog.

Some years ago Karl Loren had developed so much more research knowledge that he decided he was ready to create the ultimate vitamin formula. Since about half of all deaths are directly related to heart disease, it was obvious that this new formula would include all the ingredients of Life Glow. But, there was so much more, new research data about various ingredients which not only prevent heart disease but also combat cancer and improve health in other ways that he branded this new formula to be, simply, the "world's best," regardless of cost. Even he was startled when the final cost for this product came back from the laboratory. This one is called "Super Life Glow." It requires that you take 30 capsules per day for the full dosage, although you can get great benefits taking less. The 30 capsules contain the exact same ingredients as 10 tablets of Life Glow, but there are many more ingredients added -- some of them extremely expensive. You can read all about the ingredients in Super Life Glow by clicking here. This amazing vitamin formula is extremely expensive. Karl had no idea whether or not anyone would ever buy it. Amazingly, it is fast becoming one of our most popular products!
Super Life Glow will also be changed soon -- to reflect the improvement in the "regular" oral chelation product. The new Super Life Glow has not yet been designed or ordered.
Life Glow Plus is a vitamin formula with 50 ingredients. You can see the exact list of all the ingredients and other information about the formula by clicking here. We sell more Life Glow Plus than all our other products combined.
To understand how this product works in your body you need to understand, first, two phrases:

Free Radicals:
![]() |
A free radical is a very small particle, about the size of an atom. A very thorough and simple explanation of free radicals is also available by clicking here. In fact, a free radical can be considered as an actual atom which has been changed very slightly by some simple natural process. Oxygen, for instance, is an atom which contains 8 electrons arranged around the central nucleus. These 8 electrons are arranged in three rings, with four electrons in the inner ring and 2 more electrons in each of the two outer rings. |
If one of these electrons is "lost" through some simple process (such as heat or being hit with radiation, or in other ways) ONE of those electrons in the outer ring can be "pulled off," or "lost." It would always be the outer ring from which an electron is lost.
You then still have an atom of oxygen, but it has only 7 electrons around it rather than 8. It has lost one electron.
Furthermore, this atom of oxygen now has only one electron in its outer ring. That outer ring actually contains an ODD number of electrons.
That is a very simplified explanation of what a free radical is. It's an atom, or other similar particle, with an ODD number of electrons arranged in its outer ring. There is another, more thorough explanation of free radicals, and oxygen, HERE.

Nature seems to like even numbers! When an atom has an odd number of electrons in its outer ring, it is anxious to find another electron, so that it can have an even number, or it is also willing to give up one more, so that it still has an even number. Nature loves even numbers of electrons in the rings around a nucleus of an atom.
When that atom tries to get another electron, to make itself "even," it can actually "steal" an electron from somewhere. When it does that, it can cause considerable damage.

Without getting too technical, for instance, there are tiny parts within your body which control your hereditary, and which control how more cells are created and grow. These are often called the "blueprints," or the DNA inside your cells. The DNA is nothing more than a complex set and very large number of connected atoms, each with some number of electrons revolving around it. As this free radical comes into contact with this DNA, it can "steal" a single electron away from the DNA. |
It is possible that the electron which is taken won't cause any damage to the DNA, or it possible that the electron which is taken could change the DNA so much that the next time the cell multiplies, it mutates, or changes, into a cancer cell. You then have cancer!
There is a great deal of evidence that virtually all disease, including cancer and heart disease, is caused by damage to these small parts of the body (the DNA within each cell) by free radicals. All aging is considered to be the result of free radical activity.
You take free radicals into your body when you breathe in cigarette smoke, or smog, or when you eat fried foods, or margarine.
A free radical only exists for a very short time -- a few millionths of a second. It travels very fast, hits something inside the body, and is "stopped." But, whatever it hits then often loses an electron in the process, itself becomes a new free radical, and this new particle moves along, very fast, for another millionth of a second, until it hits something else.
This process is often called a chain-reaction of free radicals. One free radical hits something, gets stopped, but in the process of being stopped, creates a new free radical which, in turn, moves along for a very short time, hits something, is stopped, but creates a new free radical.
Thus, one free radical can start a chain-reaction in which dozens or even hundreds of further free radicals are produced, one at a time. When a free radical hits Vitamin C, it stops. Vitamin C is sometimes called a "free radical scavenger," because it stops free radicals. (Actually and technically, the Vitamin C would give up an electron in order to "stop" the free radical, and thus the Vitamin C could be considered to have become a new free radical. But, since Vitamin C is so large compared to other particles, it is so slow in movement that it is an extremely weak free radical when IT gives up an electron.)
Any one of these free radicals could somehow hit the DNA of a cell and cause damage. The free radical would probably stop, and perhaps a new free radical would not be created, but the DNA, in the mean time, would be damaged, and that one piece of damage could, some day, cause that one cell to be turned into a cancer cell.
Terrible things, these free radicals.
But, it can get worse!
Toxic Metals
![]() |
You often have in your body tiny pieces of
metal, like mercury (from your fillings) or lead, or even iron. They are
like time bombs, waiting to cause trouble. These are so tiny that you could
say they are almost the size of atoms. Perhaps several atoms, but these are
tiny pieces of metal which are, actually, toxic.
They are still little-appreciated by traditional medicine -- but they probably cause most health problems! They certainly cause heart disease and cancer! |
These pieces of metal can be so small that they can easily get embedded inside some tissue or organ of the body. This little piece of toxic metal can get stuck inside the liver, for instance, or the kidneys, or the heart, or just about anywhere. You could consider that this organ has a "sliver," or a very tiny piece of metal sticking into it.
There is a mechanism, actually, whereby the tissue or organ tries to protect itself from this dangerous toxic metal, and can grow more tissue AROUND the toxic metal, to cut it off from other parts of the body.
But, there it is, still, this tiny sliver of toxic metal, stuck into your body somewhere. You could have millions of these!

So much for mercury fillings!
Now that's not so bad, but when a free radical happens to bump into one of these tiny pieces of toxic metal, instead of a simple chain-reaction of ONE new free radical being produced, there could be MILLIONS of new free radical produced from this one impact.
Get the idea! The free radical from your latest meal of French Fries, is moving along inside your body, hitting various things, getting stopped, starting a new free radical moving along, and somewhere along the way this little murderous particle hits a tiny piece of toxic metal.
Whoops! We now have 1,000,000 new free radicals created in that split second. Each of them moves off in some new direction, spreading all through the body. Many of them will hit OTHER pieces of toxic metal, causing other MILLIONS of free radicals to become newly created, each of THEM ready to do damage to your body.
Don't worry too much 'cause this has been going on inside your body for years and you're not dead yet!
So, while we try to find ways to stop free radical from creating chain reactions in your body (Vitamin C does this very well, thank you!), we should be far MORE concerned with preventing these free radicals from ever coming into contact with toxic metals in the body.
Very fortunately for you, there is a method of doing this!
How It Works!
When you take Life Glow Plus capsules, at the rate of about 20 per day, you are getting 300 milligrams every day of a miracle substance known as the amino acid, cysteine. You also get the even more powerful N Acetyl Cysteine.
You'll find on another page a fuller explanation of how cysteine does it's wonders, but let me say here that there is lots of research that shows how cysteine does this.
What it does is to REMOVE those tiny pieces of toxic metals from your body.
All by itself, this is a fantastically healthy change in your body.
But, when there are fewer of these tiny pieces of toxic metal inside your body, you have far fewer of these dangerous free radicals being produced inside your body.
We're getting to the final point, now.
The next thing you need to learn is how these free radicals cause heart disease and how they cause "hardening of the arteries."
I think I'll leave the detail of that for another page, but briefly here. When the cells inside your arteries are damaged by free radicals they don't always die instantly. Often they get weak. When they get weaker, they lose some of their ability to get rid of garbage. A lot of the garbage that a cell wants to get rid of is calcium. So, this cell inside your artery can't get rid of calcium, and calcium accumulates inside the cell. After a while, the poor cell dies!
It can't live in all that garbage.
At that point the cell could be said to be "calcified." It is mostly calcium. (But when you swallow calcium tablets, for instance, that calcium doesn't add to this problem. This problem is caused only because the cells, individually, can't get rid of the calcium inside. Whether there is more or less calcium OUTSIDE is not a factor.)
You get the idea, from the above, that we have a very scientific foundation for how this formula works.
You can read much more about this in the Book, Life Flow One, The Solution For Heart Disease, by Karl Loren. You can read that entire Book on the web by clicking here.
There is an exact mechanism by which these tiny pieces of toxic metal are removed from the body. The ingredients in the Life Glow Plus formula which does this miracle is an amino acid called cysteine and another one called N Acetyl Cysteine, as well as EDTA.
Now that you've read this, you will know the truth! There are other scams out there and I'll be writing more about them in these pages.
