'All the bad flips': Christina Haack has mercury, lead poisoning after years of renovating 'gross houses'
MAUI, HAWAII: After years of experiencing "some unexplained health stuff," Christina Haack revealed she has lead and mercury poisoning. The 'Flip or Flop' star admitted on Thursday, December 22 that her test outcomes might be related to the years she spent remodeling old homes.
"My scan said I have mercury and lead poisoning," the 39-year-old posted on her Instagram Story. "Most likely from all the gross houses I’ve been in (all the bad flips)." She has "small intestine bacteria overgrowth," according to the tests. "So we are first detoxing all of this through herbs and IVs and then [we’ll] see how I feel and tackle implants," she continued.

Last week, the star of 'Christina on the Coast' opened up about her persistent health issues, which she believes may be brought on by her breast implants. "Been super exhausted lately so [I’m] on a kick to get back into my body. I’ve had some unexplained health stuff for years, and now I’m considering the thought that this could be breast implant related," she said on Instagram.
Haack added that all of her under-eye filler had been removed because "it was causing an inflammatory reaction." The HGTV star is having "inflammation, autoimmune issues (Hashimoto’s disease, PCOS, Raynaud’s syndrome), unexplained skin rashes, joint and muscle pain, dry eyes, GI issues, SIBO, acid reflux, brain fog, hormone imbalances, swollen lymph nodes and adrenal fatigue." The star still has a lot to be thankful for this holiday season despite her long list of medical difficulties, especially now that her custody dispute with her ex Ant Anstead has been resolved. Hudson, the ex-3-year-old couple's son, will "continue to have joint legal and joint physical custody," and the case will no longer be tried in March 2023.
Haack married Ant Anstead, a British television personality, in 2018, but they divorced in June 2021. Since then, he has moved on and started dating Oscar-winning actress Renee Zellweger. Hudson was born in September 2019 to the "Flip or Flop" alum. She is also the mother of their children Taylor, 12, and Brayden, 7 with her ex-husband Tarek El Moussa. They were married for over nine years before splitting in 2018. Tarek got married again in October 2021 to 'Selling Sunset' actress Heather Rae Young. The duo is expecting a child together. Nearly five months after the couple originally exchanged vows in secret, Haack arranged a wedding on the Hawaiian island of Maui with her husband Joshua Hall.
