Coronary heart diseases like atherosclerosis are a result of calcium/ mineral deposits inside the arteries‚ which leads to the hardening of the arteries. This hinders blood flow and can be very dangerous. Because EDTA can minimize the amount of calcium

It is estimated that one fifths of deaths in India are a result of cardiovascular diseases which include coronary heart disease‚ congestive heart failure‚ peripheral arterial disease‚ rheumatic heart disease and many more. These diseases result largely in ischemic heart failure which‚ if severe enough‚ can cause the loss of critical amounts of cardiomyocytes. This can lead to several
