Lead Ions Chelation Process Optimization After Chelation with Ginkgo Biloba Combined with Usage of Magnetic Treated Water as Drinking Water

Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 3

Abstract

Background: Water and life are closely linked. This has been recognized throughout history by civilizations and religions and is still the case with scientists today. Water properties are found to be very effected by magnetic and electric field. The aim of this work was to study the effect of a combination between Ginkgo Biloba and magnetic treated water (MTW) on the lead ions chelation rate. Materials & Methods: Sixty New Zealand albino rabbits weighing between 2.5 and 3 kg were conducted to the study. Study was approved from the NRC, Ethical Committee. Animals were subdivided into four groups. Control groups I: animals received neither lead acetate nor Ginkgo biloba. Groups II: animals received lead acetate in the drinking water with no treatment. Group III: animals received lead acetate in drinking water and then treated with Ginkgo biloba as a chelator with using tap water as drinking water. Groups IV: animals received lead acetate in drinking water and then treated with Ginkgo biloba as chelator concomitant with usage of magnetic treated water (MTW) as drinking water. Results: A dramatic reduction in all body compartments lead level after administration of Ginkgo biloba chelation therapy. Animals used MTW as drinking water recorded the lowest lead ions concentration, antioxidants activity level and hemoglobin auto-oxidation rate as compared to those received lead with no treatment. Conclusion: Magnetic treated water usage as drinking water reduced the free radicals formation rate that in role enhance the chelation therapy process when chelator is administered.
