I haven't found any info about which chelator would work best for the pancreas. Keep in mind that much depends on the individual. I know people who have taken only one chelator and do great, while others have only slow progress on combination chelation. The most important things are never skip a dose and if the iron isn't dropping, raise the chelator dose.
