Dr Max shares his concerns about the rise of wellness influencers on social media, highlighting how many promote misleading and potentially harmful health advice. Drawing from his experience treating eating disorders, he reveals that some influencers suffer from serious mental health issues while continuing to dispense guidance to their followers, often masking the reality of their struggles. He warns that the allure of influencer lifestyles can distort public perceptions of health, with unqualified individuals shaping opinions and decisions, sometimes leading patients to disregard professional medical advice. Dr Max also touches on positive news, praising Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi for adopting a child, and discusses the ongoing issue of underperformance among white working-class children, as well as a moving exhibition about Nazi-looted property and the benefits of Omega 3 fatty acids.
