A short YouTube transcript excerpt of Robert Whitfield MD and Lauren Bostick discussing a case where sauna use appeared to cause degradation of breast implant shells leading to heavy metal leaching (detected via urine toxicity tests). The patient improved after explantation; the clinicians recommend that people with breast implants avoid saunas.\n
And this is why I get in trouble when I talk about saunas like I did on Lauren's show. So Lauren Bostick was cooking herself in her sauna and not melting her implants, but causing leaching from her implants. So the metals were coming out of the shell of the device. The device was degrading. And it was shown in her urine toxicity test, which I have. And after she explanted, she felt amazing. She was taking selfies with me in the recovery room, which is not normal.
But that's very. Lauren.
Correct. The people who do that have that kind of characteristic that a lot more heavy metal exposure. And then when we repeated her heavy metal toxicity test, she had all of those gone.
Should people with breast implants be avoiding saunas?
Yes.
Wow.
