In this episode of The Modern Vital Podcast, host Dr. Ben Reebs invites Ellie Vixie, an expert and survivor of breast implant illness (BII), to discuss the condition and its environmental factors. Ellie shares her personal journey of discovering BII after 17 years with breast implants and struggling with chronic health issues. She emphasizes the importance of educating women about BII and helping them make informed decisions about explantation and self-love post-surgery. Dr. Ben highlights some common symptoms of BII, such as muscle and joint pain, palpitations, hypothyroid symptoms, rashes, and fatigue, which are often difficult to diagnose through standard lab tests. They discuss the prevalence of BII and the need for proper recognition and diagnosis within the medical community. The episode concludes with Ellie offering resources and support for those seeking help with BII and encouraging individuals to find doctors who take a holistic approach to treatment.

The discussion delves into the causes of BII, including inflammatory reactions and biofilm formation around breast implants. Ellie mentions cases where mold was found inside the implant capsules, as well as the leaching of heavy metals and toxins into the body. Dr. Ben expresses curiosity about the potential overlap between BII and other conditions like tick-borne illnesses and autoimmune diseases, given their shared symptoms. Ellie agrees that further study is needed to explore these connections and highlights the importance of ruling out breast implants as a potential cause of illness. The episode concludes with Ellie sharing her contact information and offering free discovery sessions to individuals seeking guidance and support regarding BII.

Overall, this podcast episode provides valuable insights into breast implant illness, its symptoms, diagnosis challenges, and environmental factors. Through personal experiences and expert knowledge, the conversation aims to raise awareness about BII and empower individuals to make informed decisions regarding their health and well-being.
