Silicone Immune Toxicity Syndrome
As it turned out, breast implants have chemicals which may do harm to the human organism. On immune system is influenced such element as Silicon (Si), which is 38% of silicone gel being a synthetic material, while Silica or SiO2 is 45% silicon. Such element as Methylene Chloride/Dichloromethane after breaking down in the body stops carrying oxygen in blood. It also may cause nervous system depression.
Among other chemicals of breast implants are: Methyl Ethyl Ketone, Cyclohexane, Isopropyl Alcohol, Denatured Alcohol ,Acetone ,Urethane, Lacquer thinner ,Ethyl Acetate ,Epoxy Resin, Epoxy hardener, Amine, Printing ink, Toluene, Freon ,Silicone, Lofol (formaldehyde), Flux Metal, cleaning acid, Eastman 910 glue (Cyanoacyryiates) ,Talcum Powder,Color Pigments as release agents Oakite (a cleaning solvent), Ethylene Oxide (ETO), Carbob black, Xylene, Hexane, Hexanone 2, Antioxidant (rubber) ,Zinc Oxide ,Naphtha (rubber solvent), Phenol Benzene-Known carcinogen, Polyvinyl Chloride (Liquid Vinyl)
How does it occure?
It is happened as the following: when the breast implant breaks the silicone gel may leak into or through the capsule that surrounds the implants, or through the semi-permeable membrane envelope. Then it walks into the microphages (scavenger cells) of our immune system where the silicone gel breaks down into Silica and Silicon inside these cells harming the immune system. If you take antibodies produced against the silicon, you may get autoimmune illness.
