How Hiclair Products work
Disodium edetate is a chelating agent that works by binding to heavy metals like lead or calcium in the bloodstream. Once bound, these toxic metals form a stable complex that can be safely excreted from the body through urine. This helps reduce metal toxicity and prevents further damage to organs, making it useful in treating poisoning caused by heavy metal exposure.
