Chemical list of implants

[Guest guest]

I had this in my files, and thought it would be worth repeating. I am not

positive of the accuracy of this list, as I have seen several, but I am sure

that it is pretty close.

,

Many of the links for breast implant websites contain lists of chemicals. I

don't have time to go through them right now and bookmark all the sites.

This list came from one of them. The ladies, lawyers, doctors and

researchers over the years have done alot of work to get this information

out, when the manufacturer's have shouted " Trade secrets!!! " --but we have to

know what is put into our bodies. In my mind, this takes precedence over

any trade secrets.
