110 | The Truth About Breast Implant Illness & Explant Surgery with Amanda Porta
Today McLean is joined by holistic beauty coach and advocate for BII (Breast Implant Illness) awareness, Amanda Porta. She’s here to share her story, from getting breast plants in her 20s, selling implants as her career, to the dozens of symptoms she then suffered from for years, and eventually finding healing with getting an explant surgery. She’s now a patient advocate for women going through Breast Implant Illness, having gone through the illness herself, she has explanted, detoxed, healed, and can guide women through their own explant journeys. She has advised thousands of women around the world from celebrities to athletes to prominent businesswomen that have trusted her expertise to support them through this health crisis. She and McLean discuss the history and types of implants, the lack of informed consent with implants, and how they can even affect breastfeeding. Her story is amazing; she went from unknowingly selling the very thing that was making her sick, to now helping other women find healing.
