What are the side effects of chelation?

Chelation therapy, used primarily to remove heavy metals from the body, can have several side effects. Common side effects include headaches, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and fatigue. Some patients may experience a drop in blood pressure, low blood calcium levels, or kidney damage. More severe but rare side effects can include allergic reactions, abnormal heart rhythms, and blood clots. It's essential to have chelation therapy administered by a qualified healthcare provider to minimize risks.
