  A Lorentz-covariant regularization scheme for effective field theories with
an arbitrary number of propagating heavy and light particles is given. This
regularization scheme leaves the low-energy analytic structure of Greens
functions intact and preserves all the symmetries of the underlying Lagrangian.
The power divergences of regularized loop integrals are controlled by the
low-energy kinematic variables. Simple diagrammatic rules are derived for the
regularization of arbitrary one-loop graphs and the generalization to higher
loops is discussed.
