Chelation therapy should only be performed by an expert.
Chelation therapy is sometimes used to treat autism even though there is no scientific evidence to support its use. This article describes three people (two children and an adult) who died from chelation therapy. The patients died because the chelation treatment took the important mineral calcium out of the body. The deaths may have been the result of a medical error where the wrong drug (similar name) was given to the patients. The authors conclude that Na2EDTA should never be given to children during chelation therapy.
