I am trying to find good quality chelation weight loss supplements?

I tried Hannen Health’s ‘Take it Off’ chelation pills but unfortunately they are out of stock for who knows how long. I see chelation pills advertised for heart health etc. but that is not what I’m looking for. I am looking for chelation ‘weight loss’ supplements. Anybody know of any good ones? Any personal experiences?

Healthy spices, foods, drinks…and their benefits?

Can you share some of your knowledge, thanks*
amounts and what it does would be great*

GREEN TEA: promote heart health, ward off cancer, fight obesity, lessen free radical damage to the cells, and even slow the progression of age-related cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease
CINNAMON: it also contains many health benefits such as: Anti-Clotting and Anti-Microbial actions, Blood Sugar Control, it boosts Brain Function, it’s Calcium and Fiber protect against Heart, and CAYENNE: Many herbalists believe that Cayenne is the most useful and valuable herb in the herb kingdom, not only for the entire digestive system, but also for the heart and circulatory system. It acts as a catalyst and increases the effectiveness of other herbs when used with them.

How can I reduce my fat intake while on a low carb diet?

My doctor recently put me on a low carb diabetic diet. I am not a diabetic – yet. I have a very high insulin resistance in which he wants to treat with diet and exercise and diabetic meds. I have been charting everything I eat, the calories, the fat grams, the carbs, fiber and protein. However, since my carbs have decreased, it seems that my fat intake has increased – at least it seems that way in the pie chart. Is it possible to reduce the fat AND carbs? The doc wants me under 35 carbs a day which is extremely hard to do as it is. It seems like the lower fat foods have a higher carb content and the higher fat foods have a lower carb content. I am concerned about my blood lipids, blood pressure and overall heart health. I would greatly appreciate any tips or advice you may have to offer.

Thanks!
Oh, the reason I am so insulin resistant is due to the PCOS that I was diagnosed with a year ago. It’s sypmtoms have started to take over my body very quickly and has deemed me infertile, unless I can drop and control my insulin levels ASAP.
