Robert Whitfield MD describes a patient whose sauna use appeared to cause heavy metals to leach from her breast implant shell, detected on a urine toxicity test. After explantation, she improved significantly. The recommendation: people with implants should avoid saunas.
Yes (as stated by Robert Whitfield MD in the transcript).
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.
