The Goal For Thalassemia Patients Today...
Andy Battaglia:
IP6 is an iron chelator and was the original reason I brought it to the attention of this group. It is also a powerful antioxidant that inhibits the actions of iron if the cells, preventing the oxidative damage that iron causes. Even in low iron thals, oxidation from hemolysis and unmatched alpha chains cause much damage, so antioxidants remain key even when the iron status is low. With the success of little A in keeping his pituitary normal, I feel we must re-emphasize the importance of high consumption of antioxidants like IP6 and vitamin E.

Hi Andy,
Thank you.
I found it on seacoast at last & ordered it:
http://www.seacoast.com/ip6-gold-with-inositol/ip6-international/120-caps/p157
The tablet is only 16 USD but shipping costs me another 34$, making a total of 51$, too expensive. The shipping cost is twice as tablets. I'll still try to search here in local stores meanwhile if I find it.

Moreover, you're correct. It's an excellent iron chelating supplement.
A very nice video I found explaining IP 6 and it's benefits, worth watching:

Interesting, look out at youtube video timeline on 5:01 where they discuss about defriprone, so I believe this is very much I needed. And I thank you god for making me visit Thalpal and find out more interesting ways to lead a better life.
Moreover it also promises to boost glucose tolerance (curing diabetes), so I think that can do wonders for me as well along with my iron being decreased, so it's a win-win situation. I will laugh at thalassema one day, ha ha ha.

Also Andy as I've mentioned they've discussed about Desferal and Defriprone in the video I mentioned above, so this 800-1000 mg tablet also I believe removes a lot of iron along with this chelator without any side effects, I believe?
Also I want to ask if whether 2 tablets/day would be appropriate I think?
