Dr. Laurena White Responds:
“No. I can’t…Again, I want people to realize, steaming is water. Like, water that comes from a faucet and it’s hot. It’s not anything more. Additionally you get the medicinal effects of the herbs that are in the water. I find it simultaneously frustrating, and simultaneously hilarious that people will literally put carcinogenic, pharmaceutical drugs in their body, without even blinking about what the components are of what they’re ingesting. Food even has synthetic materials in it and people don’t think twice about it. But, now, when we talk about vaginal steam — where there literally is nothing but plants and water that’s been boiled…how is that supposed to cause HIV??? That we’re even having this conversation, when people are eating synthetic Impossible Burgers. I just can’t. There’s no way to even entertain that conversation because it’s based on lunacy.”
