More Evidence That Breast Implant Illness Is Related to Fungi!

Good Copper, Bad Copper???

If you are like I was and many of the clients I have worked with over the years you may be struggling with the effects of chronic fungi. As many of you already know the root cause to many health problems may be fungal in nature and can be related to antibiotic overuse and a diet high in grains, sugars, alcohol, and of course the silicone in IMPLANTS! However could it be that there is a piece of the puzzle for you that may have been overlooked? Have you noticed that others a

How Poisonous Mycotoxins From Fungi Affect Your Hormones and Emotions!

Now that you know the very real possibility that you have been mold compromised by your implants let's discuss how the mold poisons called mycotoxins can affect your hormones.

Breast Implant Illness and Depression

Many ladies with symptoms of breast implant illness that I work with tell me that they are depressed. I just had a consult with a young mother today who is dealing with this symptom and has found no answer to her depression and anxiety. What could be the cause of this in BII? We know that silicone is degrading to fungi. There are many research articles out there that tie fungi to depression. Why? Fungi are a known neurotoxin and will cross the blood brain barrier. Here

Antibiotics and Breast Implant Illness

Originally published in the Detox with Dawn private Facebook group Nov. 2017 I would like to address antibiotics, as I have worked with a number of ladies this week who have become more ill after taking them.

Mariel Lizano was Crippled by Breast Implants

The question posed to our public Facebook page was this: What did your doctor tell you that helped you decide to get breast implants? Mariel had this to say... After just 30 days of having my saline implants I developed pain on my hands that had never happened before and when I asked the surgeon if it was related to the implants he said no. A year later I was in treatment for RA and the rheumatologist said to me on my first visit... btw your implants have nothing to do with y

Foods that Feed the Fungus

The goal of the Kaufmann Diet is to restrict foods that might feed a pathogenic yeast or fungal infection; according to Doug Kaufmann, these are far more prevalent than assumed by mainstream medicine and constitute the source of many human health problems. The second goal of the diet is to restrict foods that might be tainted with mold poisons, known as mycotoxins. These include many different areas of our food supply; many of these foods are common foods that many people eat

Tin Toxicity and Breast Implant Illness

Years ago when I first started working with women who were ill with breast implants I noticed that their tin levels were in general much higher than that of my average client. Many were as much as ten times what would be considered a safe level. As I continued to research breast implant illness I found that most implants contain high levels of tin. What??? There is absolutely no place for tin in the human body. Those that have unsafe levels become very ill with many symptoms

Detoxification of Heavy Metals

I often have questions when working with ladies on the 4-step protocol about how to detox from heavy metals left behind by the breast implants, other implants or amalgam fillings. First of all I can tell you that I have worked clinically with this issue and been to many conferences for training on detox. I have seen the ups and the downs, the good and the bad of detoxification practices. If you do not work with an educated healthcare provider on this you may cause more har
