Laura Bostic's urine tests showed dangerous levels of heavy metals after using a barrel sauna regularly. Her doctor, Robert Whitfield MD, traced it to the sauna shell leaching at temperatures around 212-220°F. The metals disappeared once she stopped using it.
Like, you have the worst test I've ever seen in my life. So I was on the Skinny Confidential night Laura Bostic had a barrel sauna and she was just cooking herself and causing leaching from the shell. So the shells have all these different heavy metals in it. And on her tox test, which is a urine test, even without a provocative challenge of glutathione for very long she had pages of heavy metals in her urine. She's a very otherwise healthy person leading very non toxic lifestyle, careful with products, all the things. And I said, I printed it and it's a good service. You have the worst test I've ever seen in my life. Where is all this coming from? And her husband, you know, Michael's her husband, he's like, oh man, do you get in the sauna for like hour and a half at a time? And I was like, what temperature? He's like, it's like it goes up to 212 or 220 or something like that. Like, okay, I wouldn't do that anymore. The hers was purely about shell leaching and degradation and they felt kind of slimy, which would, you know, in my standard thinking would be like, that's infected. But this was more about breakdown and you know, degrading the shell, leaching the chemicals out into our system because we repeated her test, which had no heavy metals in it. After he went to the Italy for the summer, stayed on Lake Cobo, didn't do any detoxification in Italy that I'm aware of. Has Lauren had an explant? Yeah.
