Dr. Robert Whitfield explains that fat tissue stores environmental toxins like heavy metals and glyphosate. When transferred fat is metabolized, patients can experience severe symptoms including hallucinations. Pre-operative testing and optimization of gut health, food sensitivities, and hormonal balance improves graft survival.
So let's go back to how we began, like what's inside the fat. So, you know, we know that if we look at preoperative testing, patients can be dealing with a lot of toxicity burden. We do this through a urine tox test and we find heavy metals, we find organophosphates, we find phthalates, We find glyphosate, which is an organophosphate. We find all sorts of other things that can be stored in the fat. And I think I had Kyle Landry on my show and he talked about people having like hallucinations basically from burning fat, if you want to think of it like that. Um, we've had a lot of, of interesting experiences in our practice, but I think the most important thing is you optimize outcomes by preparing the patient, understand their toxicity burden, gut health, food sensitivities, hormonal balance, all those things. And then as your body is beginning to heal and the blood supply where the fat transfer was placed is, is ready and accepts the fat, then you'll have a better outcome.
