Breast Implant Illness: Symptoms, Rate, and Causes Explained #shorts

How common would you say breast implant illness is? So about 2.2 million implants are placed annually. And over it takes probably in my experience we'll just use 10 years as a benchmark. And in my study we just published 29% rate, so we'll just call it 30. That leaves about 6.6 million people who you would think would have that problem. So and the problem, like I said, it's one of chronic inflammation. So you look at someone's genetics, you and I each have a ability to detox a certain amount of toxins. Once that succeeded, we'll become symptomatic with inflammatory type symptoms if we continue to be exposed to the same things through what we drink, what we eat, the air we breathe, lifestyle we live or exercise we don't or do do. And gut health and food sensitivities, other triggers metabolomics looks at, you know, how we break down. And we'll talk more about acid breakdown and a little bit and then hormone balance. So all those things collectively you'll see off in these patients. Their blood laboratories will typically be pretty normal.
