Since I haven’t been able to shut up about the toxins we’re eating and putting on our skin, I feel like I owe it to you to explain why I feel so passionate about this and why I can’t shut my mouth on the subject. It’s not just some wild theory I pulled out of thin air—it’s what I call The Chemical Connection.
For the past 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of working with the same amazing clients, but over the last 12 years, I’ve noticed something alarming—our health is in serious decline. It’s not just a few people; it’s nearly everyone. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it until I got sick. That’s when the dots started connecting. Once I started to dig into my own health issues, I uncovered the bigger picture.
I realized the chemical connection between my illness and what’s making everyone else sick too.
I had breast implants for years, and they were silently poisoning me. The implants were filled with chemicals that leached into my body, and guess what? The same toxic chemicals are lurking in your food, your skincare products, and even those so-called "healthy" options in the grocery store. That’s right—the stuff that was wrecking my body is the same stuff that’s in the food we’re eating every single day.
Let me explain the cycle: You eat the poison, you get sick, you go to the doctor, they give you meds, you stay sick. Rinse and repeat. In my case, I implanted the poison on my chest…right over my most crucial organs for living!
Once I had my implants removed, I started healing, and that’s when everything clicked. It’s all about gut health! We’re all dealing with the same core issues—whether you realize it or not. The symptoms might look different from person to person, depending on how much seed oil you’re consuming, but it all points back to the gut. When you really dig into how the body works, it becomes crystal clear: it’s our guts running the show, not our brains!
So while I was carrying chemicals around from my implants, you’re ingesting them with every bite of processed food or slathering them on your skin. We’re all in the same toxic boat!
Toxins are like squatters in your body. They settle in and refuse to leave, disrupting everything along the way. Whether they’re from implants, botox, fillers, food, or skincare, these toxins build up in your system over time. Your body, in its brilliance, tries to detoxify through the liver, skin, and kidneys, but when the overload is too great, your system gets overwhelmed. That’s when things start to fall apart: leaky gut, inflammation, hormone imbalances, chronic fatigue—you name it. The longer those toxins sit in your body, the harder it becomes to eliminate them. And don’t think just because you’re eating “clean” or drinking green juice you’re safe. The poison is lurking in places you don’t even suspect!
The worst part? We’ve been conditioned to accept this slow poisoning as “normal.” You feel exhausted all the time? “Oh, you’re just getting older.” You’re constantly bloated and inflamed? “Must be stress.” But the truth is, your body is waving a red flag, desperately trying to alert you to the overload of toxins. And if you don’t address the root cause, you’re just going to keep running in circles.
This isn’t just about me—this is about all of us. I’ve been ranting about seed oils for a while now, and let me tell you, they’re straight-up toxic. Not just causing a little indigestion—oh no—we’re talking full-blown leaky gut syndrome, the kind of thing that silently wreaks havoc on your body. And trust me, I know this all too well. I’m not dying anymore (I mean, technically we’re all dying, right?), but I was practically knocking on death’s door at one point.
I’m sure some people think, “What does she know? She’s not a doctor!” And trust me, I get it. We’ve all been conditioned to think that if you don’t have "MD" next to your name, you can’t possibly understand how the body works. But here’s the thing—I have a body, and I almost killed it, so I had no choice but to learn how to heal it. And guess what? I had to go back to the basics I learned in beauty school because not one doctor knew what was happening to me. That’s right, my beauty school A&P…—hairstylists don’t get nearly enough credit for understanding the human body!
As a licensed cosmetologist and skincare specialist, my training goes way beyond facials and moisturizers. A huge part of my job is recognizing signs of illness and disease. I didn’t just breeze through beauty school—I racked up 1,200 hours in cosmetology and another 600 in esthiology, studying Anatomy, Physiology, and skin diseases. I even learned how to properly complete intake forms to ensure I don’t harm anyone with my touch or by using the wrong product on their skin or hair. So yeah, I’m kinda in the business of chemistry and science—I don’t just “cut hair.”
I say that with a laugh because even my kids think my license is just for cutting hair. Every time I cut their hair and start talking about the poison food, they roll their eyes. But it’s cool— my license means I’m no dummy😆, and I know that this will protect their health!
For years, I was sick because of my breast implants. The chemicals were leaching into my body, slowly but surely causing leaky gut and a whole host of other issues. I went to doctor after doctor, even saw an allergist because I thought I was having food allergies, but not a single one mentioned gut health. It wasn’t until I had my implants removed that I started to heal. That’s when I learned about gut health and dove into studying the gut microbiome. Suddenly, everything made sense.
Now, here’s the part that really blows people’s minds: I might look healthy on the outside because I’m thin, but I am just as sick as anyone else. And guess what? You’re dealing with the same chemical overload that I was—just in a different way. While my body was struggling from implant chemicals, you’re ingesting seed oils, processed food chemicals.
Sure, we look different on the outside, but inside? We’re both toxic dumps, burdened by the same build-up of garbage that our bodies can’t handle.
*Both the seed oil and breast implant industries rely on industrial chemicals that, while serving different purposes, share common toxicological risks like neurotoxicity, carcinogenic potential, and hormone disruption. The neurotoxins like hexane, toluene, and xylene can be found in both seed oil extraction processes and breast implant manufacturing. While cold-pressed oils and more modern, “health-conscious” implant designs try to avoid the worst offenders, the overlap points to the broader issue of industrial chemicals in our bodies, whether we eat them or implant them.
I know what you’re thinking—"But I eat healthy! I’m on Whole30, or keto, or whatever the latest trend is." Hate to break it to you, but even in those "clean" diets, there’s poison hiding. We are being misled, for profit. Aren’t you tired of feeling like crap? I sure was, and I’m beyond exhausted from watching everyone around me get sicker and sicker while their doctors pat them on the back and say they’re healthy—or worse, prescribe yet another pharmaceutical drug to "fix" them.
What’s really needed is education about gut health. But, oh no, that might be considered "fat shaming," or something of the sort, so nothing is said. Meanwhile, the real solution is right there, ignored. In my opinion, doctors should be educating you on how to get truly healthy. But what’s in it for them if you actually get healthy? One would think the doctor is there to help you, not just line their pockets. Yet here we are.
Did you know your tongue can reveal signs of your gut health? Take a look—if it’s white or you’ve noticed sores, it could be yeast, not just a canker sore. Your tongue can show early signs of leaky gut, especially with a white coating caused by Candida overgrowth.
When your gut is compromised, yeast thrives, and your tongue tells the story. If you’re seeing these signs, it’s a clear signal that your gut health needs attention. Your body leaves clues—starting with your tongue! Ask me how I know!! I had to learn that all by myself!
But here’s the deal—I’m having a hard time watching people deteriorate under the care of professionals who are supposed to “do no harm.” It’s time to take control of your health, and stop relying on a broken system to save you.
I encourage your to watch documentaries on the food industry! Seriously, it's eye-opening—and honestly, alarming—when you realize what you’re actually eating. Take that chicken you grab at the grocery store… bleach. Yeah, you heard me—bleach to clean them. But don’t worry, they rinse them off so it’s "safe." Cue my eyeballs falling out of my head from yet another violent eye roll!
Oh, and eggs? Also bleached. And the animals we eat? They’re fed garbage—nothing healthy, just a diet filled with seed oils. Unless you are purchasing Grass Fed, Organic meat.. So not only are you eating seed oils, but the animals you’re eating have been eating them too. Soon we will be purchasing our meats from a farm!
No wonder why we’re a sick nation! It’s a never-ending cycle of crap being fed into our bodies, and our health is on the decline.
Nothing changes if nothing changes. All I can do is give you the information; what you do with it is entirely up to you. The internet is there, right at your fingertips. If you dig, you'll find the truth buried beneath all the misinformation. Then it’s your choice—take control of your health or continue down the path of a slow, inflamed decline. Because let’s be real, that’s exactly what’s happening to us.
And when I say "doctor," I know it might sound a little negative, but trust me, I get it—there are some doctors out there who aren’t buying into the idea that we need to fill our bodies with all these toxins. They genuinely care about finding healthier solutions. But here’s the thing—those doctors expensive and hard to access.
I want you to know, I’m just really passionate about helping people understand what’s truly healthy. I’m not trying to be your doctor, but I do want to inform you and encourage you to put politics aside, look at the real science, and take a moment to do your own research.
Life is so much better when you’re actually healthy! You get to experience things fully. But right now, the food and toxins are weighing us down—literally.
Here’ are some examples of why we should do our on research. And check out my blog on cholesterol cause I don’t want you to die.
