325: Breast Implant Illness & the Path to Healing with Candace Barley

In this heartfelt and informative episode, Dr. Lo is joined by Candace Barley—actress-turned-advocate and author of The Explant Book—for a powerful conversation about Breast Implant Illness (BII) and the physical, emotional, and spiritual journey of explanting.

Both Dr. Lo and Candace share their personal stories of getting breast implants, the health symptoms that followed, and their decisions to explant. They dive deep into the connection between implants and chronic illness, and how true healing is possible.

What You'll Learn in This Episode: 💫 Candace's shocking health crash—including liver disease, neurological symptoms, and how her intuition helped uncover the root cause 💫 Dr. Lo's own explant experience and how it impacted her hormones, fertility, and thyroid health 💫 Why en bloc explant (full capsule removal) is non-negotiable 💫 The connection between implants and autoimmune issues, histamine intolerance, hormone imbalances, and infertility 💫 Why healing after explant isn't one-size-fits-all—some women bounce back fast, while others need deeper detox and support 💫 Favorite pre- and post-explant tools, including glutathione, lymphatic drainage, redox support, and more 💫 Functional lab testing and genetic markers that can help guide the healing process

This episode is a must-listen for anyone considering breast implants, experiencing unexplained chronic symptoms, or wondering if explant might be the missing piece in their healing journey.
