⚡️ Revealing the toxic health effects of breast implant illness - and how to recover!

💬 “If you knew your breast implants would suppress your libido or lead to thyroid changes, how many would do that?” ~Dr Rob Whitfield

➡︎ Breast implants are massively toxic and can lead to a buildup of severe symptoms, from fatigue to hair loss and even autoimmune diseases. Breast implant illness is a real and potentially debilitating health issue - so what’s going on?

➡︎ As one of the most common cosmetic surgeries in the US, it’s important for women (and the men who love them) to know the facts about breast implants - and to understand how to recover and detoxify.

➡︎ Luckily, Dr Rob Whitfield is a world-renowned plastic surgeon who’s removed more than 3000 breast implants, helping his patients to come back from breast implant illness.

➡︎ In this episode, Tim and Rob discuss the link between implants and inflammation, and why they can lead to such a cascade of negative health impacts. They explore the insane, up to 800% rise in autoimmune diseases in women with implants. They even touch on whether it’s ok to use the sauna when you’ve got implants. All of this served with a dose of optimism as Rob explains you can recover from breast implant illness and clear your symptoms.
