Studies show the rate of hip and knee replacements becoming more common especially as baby boomers begin aging. But look out, our research shows hip and knee replacements can shorten your life and often fail. Though we could not find extensive long term studies, the current studies are enough to draw conclusions that should have anyone think two three or even 4 times before a hip or knee surgery. The cause is believed to be the materials the new joints are made of. Clearly these procedures should be avoided at all costs.

Side effects include:

Kidney Damage

Damage to liver cells

Osteolysis- (meaning damage to bone in the area of the joint replacement)

Damage to Brain cells

Shortness of breath

Damage to red blood cells causing anemia

Damage to immune cells

Damage to DNA – (aka cancer)

Softening of all bone

Cardiomyoapthy

Increased fractures

Thyroid problems

Decreased sperm count infertility

Damage to eyes – Retinal problems
