Dr. Gordon discovered that by manipulating the molecular environment of a patient’s bloodstream utilizing the unique synergistic nutritional support formula based on the life’s work of Dr. Lester Morrison, he was able to document significant improvements of blood flow to the legs, head, and heart of patients experiencing problems of clot, spasm, and arrhythmia such that, even without adding the powerful intravenous chelation treatments, less than 5% of his patients found the need to go on with previously proposed or strongly recommended heart of blood vessel surgery. If intravenous chelation and oxidative therapies were added (when indicated), this number diminished to less than 1%.

Dr. Lester Morrison has already extensively documented a better than 70% reduction in second heart attack rate⁽¹⁾. Fifteen years ago when Dr. Gordon worked with Dr Morrison, he added oral EDTA to Dr. Morrison’s formula. Using this along with other anti-atherogenic nutrients, Dr. Gordon was able to make the Morrison Heart Formula easier to take, more concentrated, and even more effective.

The overall benefits of this unique proven formula have now been further enhanced by adding the beneficial lipid lowering effects of red yeast and beta sitosterol as well as a unique combination of Grape Seed Extract (OPCs), EDTA, EPA, MSM, Phosphatidyl Serine, Red Algae, Ginkgo Biloba, high allicin containing Organic Garlic, and more than 50 other ingredients, most of which are well documented and known to improve circulation, reduce strokes, and promote health and longevity.

The purpose of the new Beyond Chelation Formula is to help prevent strokes and heart attacks which are in part the end result of the formation of atherosclerotic plaques and the associated formation of thromboxane which leads first to enhanced platelet aggregation, then to artery blockage, and finally on to thrombosis. The Formula deals with these problems at the cellular level and, by individual & synergistic means, helps to prevent this well recognized pathway leading to vascular disease and eventual death from forming.

All of the ingredients within the Beyond Chelation products can be safely and continuously consumed by patients for 30, 40, or even 50 years, providing effective life-long protection at the molecular level against virtually all of the major recognized factors now believed to bring on cardiovascular related deaths.

Volumes of pertinent research exist on the 60+ nutrients contained in the balanced, synergistic Beyond Chelation formulas. Each formula within the Beyond Chelation package can be used independently or in combination with the other formulas with remarkable results. Some of the significant properties of only a portion of these ingredients are listed below. Further information may be obtained by contacting the Gordon Research Institute or Longevity Plus Products by phone, fax, or email.

Alpha Lipoic Acid:

Anti-oxidant critical to the entire network of Vitamin C, E, & Glutathione

Facilitates many metabolic pathways and helps to convert food into energy

100% absorbed and is used in Europe to prevent some of the side effects of diabetes & oxidative stress

Essential fatty acids that can best be summarized by pointing out that the mere ingestion of salmon twice a week has been shown to reduce the overall mortality from heart attacks by more than 40%. The deficiency in our diet of this essential nutrient is widely recognized, and the efficacy in preventing thrombosis or hypercoagulable states in the bloodstream with supplemental use of EPA is overwhelmingly documented.

GLA (Gamma-Linolenic Acid):

Essential fatty acids which also help prevent thrombosis &/or hypercoagulable states in the bloodstream

Omega 3, 6, & 9:

More than 25% of the adult American population have low levels of Omega 3 or Omega 6.

Modulation of essential fatty acids (EFA) with diet provides a powerful tool to treat such disorders as the complications of diabetes mellitus, cystic fibrosis, Crohn’s disease, dermatitis, CFS, eye disorders, brain dysfunction, behavioral disturbances, depression, and neurological diseases.⁽¹¹⁾

Grape Seed Extract (95% Proanthocyanadins):

Contains OPCs which enhance anti-oxidant & lipid anti-oxidant activity throughout the entire body

Helps to maintain the functional state of the vascular wall.

Carrageenan (Natural Extract of Red Algae/Chondrus Crispus):

A sulphate ester of D-Galactose, a monosaccharide, usable by both red and white blood cells

Dietary Galactose is usable to construct & maintain glycoforms used in cell-to-cell communication⁽²⁾

Prolongs prothrombin time and lowers cholesterol

Stabilizes the entire Beyond Chelation product and ensures its full potency over time

Gingko Biloba, Phosphatidyl Serine (PS), & Phosphatidyl Choline:

Reduces the cholesterol concentration present in arterial wall

Is involved in bone matrix formation, testicular function, and in maintaining heart rhythm

BTN Hydrochloride:

A methylating agent to help deal with the problem of homocysteine

MSM:

An organic sulfur compound known for its anti-inflammatory & circulation enhancing properties

Helps to build methionine & cysteine -- rate limiting amino acids which have chelating benefits

May help to keep tissues more flexible and reduce interface friction between blood components.

Chromium:

May counteract the enhanced oxidative stress seen in Type II Diabetes

The Chinese documented a decrease in the complaint of fatigue in over 80% of Chromium treated subjects.

Vitamin C, E, Beta-Carotene, & Selenium:

Provably lowers the capacity of platelets to aggregate and reduces in vivo platelet activation;

Provably reduces the production of Thromboxane A2⁽⁵⁾

Organic Garlic:

800mg per day offers a significant reduction in total cholesterol as well as LDL cholesterol

Lowers blood pressure and is anti-viral

Red Yeast:

Works as an HMG CoA reductase inhibitor⁽⁶⁾

Reduces total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol and decreases triglycerides⁽⁹⁾

Beta Sitosterol:

Is an effective option in the treatment of BPH (benign prostatic hyper-plasia)⁽⁷⁾

A fully accepted treatment for hyper-lipidemia in children & adolescents⁽¹⁰⁾

Trace Minerals:

Enhance the lowering of blood pressure

Assist in the metabolic process

Taking advantage of recent research and discoveries, Gordon Research Institute is attempting to provide a balanced, synergistic, wide spectrum blend of ingredients known for their health giving properties and their effectiveness in combating physical and mental degeneration.

Additions to earlier formulas are: Alpha Lipoic Acid, Beta Glucan, Betaine HCI, Beta Sitosterol, Choline, Evening Primrose Oil, dL-Methionine, Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), Grape Seed Extract, Linoleic Acid (Omega 6), Malic Acid, MSM, Omega-3 Marine Lipid Concentrate, Oleic Acid (Omega 9), Phosphatidyl Choline Concentrate, Phosphatidyl Ginkgo Boost, Phosphatidyl Serine Concentrate, Red Yeast, Trace Mineral Complex, and Vanadium.

Once patients receive Beyond Chelation’s total package of nutrients, the major causes of acute cardiovascular mortality are dealt with as effectively as Dr. Gordon believes is possible today within a nutritionally based program.

Note: Some people will warrant higher levels of some of these ingredients for a specific period of time, depending on risk factors and symptoms. Also certain other nutrients are clearly useful but due to expense cannot be included in a basic program. Such nutrients would include, Co-enzyme Q, Carnitine, & those producing the anti-inflammatory activity of the uniquely formulated product Wobenzym.
