EDTA is a man-made amino acid, which has a particular affinity for toxic metals such as mercury, cadmium, aluminium and lead.

Like you would do with a clogged up drain pipe or perhaps using a bottlebrush to scrape away the fatty deposits and fix my insides.’ Clearly Albert’s condition made a huge impact on him as a little boy and if his doctors where really in the know, they would’ve told him that this is possible...
