The video irked many social media users and experts. Reacting to it, an Instagram user wrote, “Wth, there is nothing nutritious in this, this is everything toxic that is left of the food you ingest!!!!!” Another user commented, “Now we will be getting children putting shit on their because this so-called “influencer “ did it.”

“You should be ashamed of it, be treated,” a third user wrote. “I mean…we can all agree that our intestines eliminate the toxins and that our body does not need,” another user said.

In 2022, social media birthed another bizarre trend where influencers rubbed menstrual blood on their faces because according to them, period blood contains “all the stem cells and all the nutrients that a baby would have needed and of course, that your skin and body needs.”
