Metal Chelation Therapy
Chelation therapy uses molecules with high affinity for specific metal ions to form stable, excretable complexes, removing toxic metals from the body. The word derives from Greek "chele" (claw) -- the chelator grips the metal ion at multiple coordination sites. While ch…

Oxidative Stress
Oxidative stress is the imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) and the capacity of biological antioxidant defense systems to detoxify them. It is the single most commonly invoked mechanism across metal toxicology in this wiki,…

Taurine
Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) is a sulfur-containing amino acid abundant in bile, heart, brain, and retina. Its primary metabolic role is bile acid conjugation — taurocholate and taurochenodeoxycholate are the taurine-conjugated primary bile acids that BSH-produc…
