FYI:

Health Canada’s stamp of approval does not necessarily mean something is actually SAFE!

In conversations with Health Canada where I posed tough questions to them, and countered every ‘standard party line’ they threw at me with facts they could not dispute, they eventually stressed that Breast Implants have the highest risk rating they assign. They are known to be high risk devices with high complication rates.

I was told that when Health Canada gives their stamp of approval it doesn’t necessarily mean they feel the product is ‘safe’. They approve some products identified to be high risk because if they ban them people will get them in other countries where there are ZERO safety protocols in place, as was the case when breast implants were temporarily banned in Canada and the U.S. in the 1990s.

*I personally don’t buy that explanation; I believe the ultimate criteria is PROFIT*

Health Canada has banned sale of products that were previously available in health food stores (IMHO so that BIG PHARMA can profit from them), but they approve these devices (breast implants) that once implanted, immediately and irreversibly, have consequence in a woman’s body.

I am currently pursuing, demanding, that Health Canada disclose a list of ingredients used in ALL breast implants currently sold in Canada. They have been resistant to say the least. I was told they may have to consult their legal department, but ultimately they may not be able to disclose this information.

I intend to pursue this in the political arena also. Women have a right to know what’s being put in their bodies. They have a right to know so they can make an informed decision on *IF* they want to be implanted. I suspect if there was full disclosure many women would not have chosen not to be implanted.

This topic is TO BE CONTINUED. If there is further resistance for FULL DISCLOSURE I intend to start a petition demanding it.

In marketing they advertise products, often spinning them as something that will make you more beautiful; happier; more desirable; sexier; and younger looking.

Then as a competitor product hits the market, or sales slump and design flaws become evident, original products are tweaked and an updated sales pitch hails the revamped product as ‘new & improved.’ Better than the previous version and better than the competitor.

Their goal is to convince you that you simply can’t live without their product because there’s something lacking in you if you don’t have it. They make you believe if you don’t fit the media’s representation of what people, especially women, should look like you fall short.

Breast implants have sales pitches also.

You may have guessed where I’m going with this …

Breast implants in the 50’s, 60’s, & 70’s had pretty big problems, though women were told they were safe.

Though there was no real public admission of problems, behind the scenes they knew all too well that the devices were failing, so they tweaked the implants and changed the sales pitch.

There has been a long history of problems in the breast implant industry. Decades of device failure, revamped implant models, and new sales pitches … and we’ve bought it all. Hook, line, and sinker. Through the 80’s, 90’s and 2000’s it’s been the same scenario playing out.

The ‘new’ allegedly ‘safe’ implants are actually based on the same 60-70 year old technology as the ‘old’ implants, but some features and the sales pitches have been tweaked.

The breast implants I got in the early 90’s were touted as the ‘latest and greatest’.

Actual catalogue sales pitch for the implants I had:

The SILASTIC II Mammary Implant. High Performance, in a direct comparison with current competitive ‘low bleed’ products. Superior Low Bleed characteristics and Greatly Enhanced Physical Properties.

Independent testing to be the Superior Implant in the marketplace today! SILASTIC II Mammary Implant, High Performance, represents years of research by Dow Corning, the recognized leader in silicone technology, to produce a ‘State of the Art’ mammary implant. The SILASTIC II Mammary Implant, High Performance, is the best product to meet today’s needs!

* Superior Low Bleed Characteristics

* Greatly Enhanced Physical Properties

* Available only from Dow Corning Wright

* High Performance Medical Grade Silicone Elastomer is available only from Dow Corning Wright.

THE REALITY:

SILASTIC II implants became the object of an international recall on September 13, 1991. In a class action lawsuit it was revealed that Dow Corning had falsified key fabrication data concerning these implants.

_________________________________________________________________

Key players in Dow Corning breast implant manufacturing who purposely concealed damning information about their breast implants went on to start new companies that manufacture breast implants. So there is still a very dangerous thread from the early days to current!

Fast forward to 2017 and we see that there is a new sales pitch for the ‘Ideal Implant’. A breast implant touted as the most ideal implant ever. The best of both worlds – the feel of silicone with the safety of saline.

Of course this ‘ideal’ implant was developed because of the failures of the ‘safe new ones that won’t rupture’. I’d laugh if so many millions more women didn’t stand to lose their health from these also.

Multiple baffles are touted as a major selling feature, but in reality it’s just more compartments for mold and bacteria to grow. More ways for women to be used as human guinea pigs. More ways for manufacturers, regulating bodies and doctors to get rich as women become ill.

Silicone breast implants are not safe. Saline breast implants are not safe. PERIOD.

Please don’t fall for this new sales pitch! It all part of the continuing experiment using women as the lab rats.

FYI:

I read an article from The Huffington Post stating ‘Kaley Cuoco’ says getting breast implants in 2004 was ‘the best decision of her life’.

2004-2014

After ten years she might be loving what she sees on the outside, but her chest wall no doubt isn’t doing so great by now! Women who haven’t yet developed complications telling other women how wonderful breast implants are is part of what’s feeding the current trend … (NOT blaming anyone for saying they love their implants because they just don’t know yet what lies ahead … just saying that this unfortunately is part of what’s feeding the trend).

There’s a chain effect happening. THIS in a nutshell is why I’m speaking out – women just have no clue what can lie ahead – what they’re loving in the moment just might come with a price way higher than they’d have agreed to pay IF THEY’D KNOWN THE TRUTH OF BREAST IMPLANTS.

FYI:

DISCONNECT AROUND BREAST IMPLANTS … often women with implants are health & fitness conscious, but have toxic devices within.

So many women have breast implants yet strive for ultimate health & fitness. Many are even fitness and yoga instructors, athletes and health care professionals. Health conscious women implanting toxic devices while reading labels to make sure they’re not eating anything that isn’t organic. Breast implants are within 2 – 3 cm of vital organs

Implanting devices containing toxic chemicals in very close proximity to vital organs, especially where there can be ‘gel bleed’ or rupture is just a bad plan PERIOD. Breast implants begin to compromise your health and immune system from the moment of implantation. They are quite contraindicated for ultimate health, or even sustained health.
