Is Silicone Breast Implant Toxicity an Extreme Form of a More Generalized Toxicity Adversely Affecting the Population as a Whole?

Abstract

In humans the element silicon is essential for normal growth and development. It is extensively biointegrated into a wide variety of matrix macromolecules that display endless variations of complex overlapping interactions. When living organisms are confronted with artificial man-made organosilicon and organosiloxane compounds there is a finite limit of adaptive mechanisms by which normal cells and tissues can dispose of these molecules. Exposure to silicone gel-filled breast implants is particularly harmful due to biochemical chaos caused by in vivo degradation of an exceedingly excessive polymer presence. The worldwide proliferation of 60,000 other man-made siliconcontaining compounds permeates all aspects of everyday living and has created generalized environmental exposure via inhalation, dermal absorption, and ingestion. These exposures are producing heightened public health concerns because prior assertions that organosiloxanes are chemically and biologically inert are no longer tenable. It is proposed that vague syndromes, such as fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome, are disorders caused by insidious slowpaced toxicity mechanisms similar to the more rapid and profound biochemical disruptions occurring in sick breast implant recipients.

Low molecular weight silicones induce cell death in cultured cells

“…Although silicone gel-filled breast implants were originally proposed to trigger immune-mediated ailments in certain individuals, during the last decade it became clear that they may cause a systemic illness that is not necessarily immune-mediated. This illness, currently often indicated with Breast Implant Illness, is characterized by chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, dry eyes, mouth and skin, shortness of breath, recurrent infections, several neurological complaints and many other symptoms 36,37 . Nevertheless, the causal relationship between silicone breast implants and a related illness remains a matter of debate 38 .…”

Hidden Toxicity of Human Papillomavirus Vaccine Ingredients

“…Because over 60,000 organosiloxane compounds have been synthesized in the past eighty years, and they now contaminate every worldwide environmental compartment [15]. A recent publication has linked organosiloxane contamination to the ever-expanding reports of metabolic and biochemical disruptions inherent to vague syndromes like CFS/ME [17].…”

“…Chronicity can easily become the norm for all of the above syndromes and illnesses due to (a) Organosiloxane interference with normal healing processes, and (b) The perpetuation of biochemical and epigenetic disruptions during cell division [17,18]. The reader is referred to prior publications for a list of consumer items that contain organosiloxanes, their routes of human exposure, and their detection in frogs, seals, honeybees, and routine household inhabitants [12,[14][15][16][17]. Silicone gel-filled breast implant toxicity is an extreme form of the organosiloxane-induced toxicities outlined in this report because of the extraordinarily large polymer load in recipients.…”

“…There has been no financial support, nor any other benefits from any commercial source, for the work consumer products containing organosiloxanes to have these compounds listed as ingredients on any labels (and this applies to organic foods as well). This is because for many decades physical chemists have brainwashed biochemists into believing that organosiloxanes are chemically and biologically inert, a premise that is now known to be completely untenable [12,[15][16][17]. Organosiloxanes and their degradation products also adversely affect enzyme functions (and thereby substrates and metabolites), as well as membrane permeability, neuronal transmission, and mitochondria [16].…”

“…Organosiloxanes, with their artificial silicon carbon bonds that never occur in any living organism on earth, are also a mission impossible for humans to deal with [12]. The toxicity of organosiloxanes is now a proven reality and is directly responsible for the multiple ailments in women suffering from the genuinely novel entity known as silicone gel-filled breast implant toxicity [12][13][14][15]. This toxicity has nothing to do with autoimmunity, but rather involves disruption of more than two dozen biochemical processes in the body.…”
