Alternative Approaches: EDTA Chelation Therapy
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper discussing the use of intravenous ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA) for the treatment of atherosclerosis and other conditions. Chelation therapy has been researched and used for more than 40 years, but it continues to be condemned by the medical establishment that cannot profit from it as much as it can from bypass surgery, hypertension prescriptions and cholesterol-lowering drugs. Medicare and private insurers prefer to pay >$40,000 for bypass surgery rather than paying less than $4000 for chelation therapy. The situation is not seen as holding any promise for change in the near future. Individuals will need to continue to seek out chelation therapy on their own and pay for their own treatments. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Amniotic Fluid And Amniocentesis
[ send me this essay ]

Before medical technology provided mankind with the ability to foretell the health or sex of a fetus, there appeared to be little definitive explanation behind the presence of amniotic fluid other than the fact that it protected the baby throughout its nine-month gestation period.

Amyloid Plaques: Cause Or Product Of Alzheimer's Disease?
[ send me this essay ]
7 pages in length. The medical community has long been divided as to the role amyloid plaques play in the presence of Alzheimer's disease, with some stating without reservation that the "extracellular clumps of a protein fragment" (Beckman, 2004, p. 762) are the initial indicators of the disease, others argue they are the end result of other insidious events leading up to Alzheimer's. What both sides do agree upon, however, is that amyloid plaques are undeniably a tell-tale sign; it is the precise role they play that continues to baffle researchers. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
