The purpose of this clinical trial is to identify 50 participants with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and follow their total white blood cell (WBC) counts and absolute lymphocyte counts after performing dermal chelation and administering nutritional therapy
The purpose of this clinical trial is to use dermal chelation and hair tissue analysis to identify 50 participants with CLL. The total wbc counts and absolute lymphocyte counts of these participants will be followed after serial dermal chelations and nutritional therapy.
