No effect: The latest study on chelation and coronary artery disease showed no significant improvement. This was done with edta; there is no comparison with rice bran extract.

Yes: Edta IV is the most effective chelation, oral is not as good. The dose is 3gram each treatment. Rice bran is for cholesterol reduction but need high dose up to 12gm, for oil it is up to 4.8gm.
