In this episode, we delve into the bizarre and often absurd world of viral wellness trends. We react to the extreme morning routine of fitness influencer Ashton Hall, who starts his day at 3:52a.m. with mouth taping, ice baths, and even rubbing banana peels on his face.
We also discuss UFC star Paddy "The Baddy" Pimblett's dramatic weight fluctuations, gaining up to 42 pounds in just two weeks after a fight, and the implications this has for his health and career.
Additionally, we critique the "cream bun guy" phenomenon, where influencers compare the calorie content of healthy foods to junk food, often misleading audiences about nutrition.
Finally, we introduce protein cigarettes., exploring the absurdity of marketing unhealthy habits as health trends and the potential dangers of such misleading practices.
Join us as we dissect these trends and discuss the fine line between wellness and nonsense.
