I've given you two sites to look at: I, personally, would not use

cilantro to chelate. As you can see, there really is no 'protocol'

for cilantro use. Just inhaling some pesto or using some

concentrated cilantro drops without really knowing what is happening

inside the body is not my way of approaching chelation.

Perhaps this is OK for the general population who just wish to

periodically clear toxins from their body; but for our kids??? Not

too sure.

Just an opinion!

You might know cilantro by the name " Chinese Parsley " . It is generally

treated kind of like a spice, the way onions and peppers are. It is

typically found in salsa and other Mexican-style food dishes. It is a known

chelator, however there is no known " standard protocol " (or treatment) for

using it that I am aware of. There are other chelators, such as ALA, for

which there are well-established protocols for dosage, timing, etc. Since

this is something completely unfamiliar to you, I have to recommend against

using it at all.

I don't know what would help with lead but others here do and can tell you

how to use it.

Also known as coriander. Cilantro is the leaves of the

coriander plant.

DMSA, used according to the protocol in the files, would be one good

choice.

Spriulina is not the same. It is an algae but is useful in absorbing

any metals/toxin, or yeast die off in the gut during chelation.

It does not actually chelate though. If you are using all those

other things to chelate, best to avoid cilantro. It is often used in

many dishes when cooking. But as others said, probably not a good

idea for ASD kids.

Phil, Just FYI, corinader and cilantro are not the same

thing. They are from the same plant: cilantro is the leaf

and coriander is the SEED.

I wouldn't suggest using cilantro for chelation but here's a site with a picture

of it and some info. I haven't read the whole site.

Chelate lead with DMSA.
