Of course she is getting an IV, she doesn’t eat enough food to get all the nutrients she needs 🤦🏻‍♂️

Oh my god, my first thought was: "wow, she looks worn out", but at first, I was afraid to comment because of the "don't comment on other people's bodies"-thing.. glad you pointed it out too

In medicine we don‘t give people their nutrients through an IV unless it is absolutely necessary - IVs are for people who are so sick they cannot eat or drink or keep it inside. We always try to switch patients back to oral intake, once it is possible because the physiological route is always better. Not to mention the scarring of the veins each time you receive an IV which will make it harder to place one and to receive medical treatment in the future. I really hope people listening to the podcast can differentiate that.

As someone with anorexia, you hit the nail on the head when you said the hyper fixation on “when’s the next meal”. Also, when she said she eats early… that’s because she’s hungry and she wants to get her food in because as soon as possible, hence an “early dinner”. she’s obsessed… and then fasts. Classic ED behavior. Classic. Vintage… I can’t help but feel a bit bad because EDs are an intrusive nightmare that’s hard to sleep off

When Gwyenth said she does an "IV", I thought it was like a trendy name for a vitamin or something. But no, she legit meant putting a NEEDLE in her arm and intravenously feeding liquid nutrients into her body like that, what the FUCK. That's so extreme. Why would anyone want to do this to themselves if they absolutely didn't need to?

I don’t think it’s normal or healthy to have a favourite IV.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I hope a lot of women watch your content, especially girls and younger women. Ty, Justina. ❤

Coffee and Bone Broth sounds like the prep I had to do for my Colonoscopy I know TMI.

Just had to pause...how the he'll can you do an hour of movement only eating coffee and bone broth??? I would pass out! Big red ED flags here.....

Ok, before even watching the rest of the video. I will say that GP wellness hacks not only are expensive, they are dangerous. This intravenous trend seems to try to ignore millions of years of evolution. Guts and livers have developed to optimize vitamine intake from food in a way that works for our body. Hypervitaminosis is a thing… a serios one at that. But may we all burn at the stake of wellness 🙄. Again, I have so many issues with these people propagating misinformation.

It was surprising when she said she does everything to support her detox because, like, hasn't she been talking abt cleansing and detoxing for YEARS??? What toxin could possibly be left at this point, Gwen?

I believe in taking care of myself, but I can't imagine being *this* obsessed with my "wellness routine". It seems like it takes up a huge percentage of Gwyneth's life, like she can't relax and truly enjoy anything because "detoxing" (i.e., staying thin) takes precedence over everything else. That's very sad, and I feel for her if she is struggling, but she is still a danger to others when she peddles her snake oil. The other guy is great, too, for straight up admitting he peddles horseshit and then telling people to buy his book. Grifters gotta grift, I guess.

"I LOVE AN IV." There's something so wrong with this statement, so sad. What wrong with good old fashioned fruit 😮

Justina, I can’t count how many times you’ve mentioned in your videos about detox. You’ve said 1,000 times that as long as you have a functioning liver & kidneys you’re good. I’m amazed how many times I hear people even in my own life talk about detoxing, whether they’re doing a juice cleanse to detox or sweating at yoga to detox. I stopped commenting cuz it’s exhausting so I can’t even imagine how you must feel having to repeat yourself on this topic constantly. THANK YOU for educating people!!!!!

[TW] it was really painful for me to watch this GP wellness starving routine video because for over a decade I've been legitimizing my eating disorders myself by reading these kinds of things about other people on a regular basis. I have to admit that back when I was studying I read a lot of Star Magazin to balance things out and of course I also consumed a lot of this eating disordered behavior and didn't understand at the time that this media is still normalizing eating disorders in a very problematic way and not just that are a problem for people who develop eating disorders as a result, but it's also incredibly difficult when you have a history of eating disorders. For me it is almost impossible to find a place here in Germany where I can do sports in a group without being taken into account that I had an eating disorder ... no, I have to build up the residence myself to listen away or to set limits, instead of critically questioning how problematic our relationship in society is to the topic of nutrition and being slim and that there is also this very problematic side of structural discrimination against people who are not conform to the slim ideal of beauty… it was incredibly difficult for me and it took me more than ten years to admit my eating disorders because I kept telling myself: that's just discipline, I'm only doing it for my health and didn't understand, that's basically it taken extreme damage to my health over the years, and even when I was extremely damaged, I continued this behavior. I would simply wish that we would now be smarter about this topic and that it really is about health and a better quality of life for everyone and not just about a slim ideal of beauty under the pretext that it is about health Can we talk about the media which publish that content?

I love your videos and appreciate that you bring some sanity to the craziness that is pushed. Keep doing what you are doing.

You NAILED IT! This needs to go viral

Just a great video Justina! One of my favourite! Thank you for this! It so needs to be seen. 🙏

A few thoughts about this craziness: Her routine makes a lot more sense if you substitute the word “wellness” with “thinness”. The only thing that could explain the obsession with juices, broth and vitamin IVs is that she had a phobia about chewing! The rectal ozone therapy makes perfect sense. I mean her smugness does suggest she thinks the sun shines out of her a-hole, so this explains how it got there in the first place.😎 It cannot be denied though that she is an amazing businesswoman. I mean I just bought one of her jade eggs and, being a man I will probably just use it as a paperweight, but kerching!💰

What an EXCELLENT video, Justina! I had to go back and supplement it with your Tracy Anderson review and now I feel empowered. 🙃 While Paltrow"s wellness routine is dubious and problematic in its own, I want to thank you for emphasising the role that Dr Will Cole plays here. I'm tired of these self proclaimed health experts, honestly I find them so dangerous and prison deserving.👀

This was incredibly informative and sad. I hope she gets help

I love this video and your passion for trying to help people have healthier attitudes towards body image! I don't think Gwen is an advertisement for health unfortunately and it's so sad that both interviewer and interviewee can't see that this is an eating disorder/disordered eating (and I am a mental health professional who has previously worked with disordered eating so you are spot on with your diagnosis :) If I had her money, I'd be eating my way around all the fantastic restaurants in NYC and enjoying every mouthful !!!

Not enough thumbs to up! THANK YOU for this & your other debunking videos!

JMO, but she doesn't look to be in glowing health for someone who places a priority on wellness. I'm not criticizing her appearance at all, she is beautiful. But to me, her face is a bit gaunt and her skin dull. There is no shine in her hair or eyes. Not saying she is sickly, but not a model of radiant health either.

I also have to say I love you Justina! Keep doing what you're doing!!

Thanks for the explanation on the IVs - I'd always associated IVs with going to the hospital and having some kind of dire need, so it's super fascinating to hear that some people willingly take things in IV for some supposed benefit 😅😅

Well said, Justina! Thanks for shedding light on the fitness/"wellness" industry bullshit and sharing your (research-informed) thoughts with us.

She honestly looks really unhealthy, it saddens me.

PREACH SISTER!! Hugs from Holland❤

It's almost as if people shouldn't take health and medical advice from celebrities.

You are one of those creators who make this platform a better place

You are an impressive young lady. Very well articulated piece.

Very sad...I've said this a multitude of times, what gives celebrities the authority to give advice about diet, exercise, healthcare, skincare...if your next-door neighbor touted her 'successful wellness routine ' and it was identical to Gwyneth Paltrow's you'd mutter 'yeah right ' under your breath and walk away as you rolled your eyes. Thank you Justina for being real!

Hi Justina! I am currently studying for my NASM cert and I was wondering if you think the OPT is a good fundamental model? If so, do you follow this model when working with clients? 🏃🏻‍♀️😄

Great video 💛

Yes!! Thank you for this 👏👏👏

This is a video that needs to go viral.

This video left me feeling very, very sad. I agree with everything you said, and it's so important for you to say it. But man. I might need a shot of sunshine up the patootie to counteract the supremely heavy weight in my chest at the moment. Excuse me while I go moon the sky from my back deck (seems like the cheaper option).

Excellent video and, as always, right on point. It’s one thing to struggle with an eating disorder, but to promote it as wellness and push your mostly useless products makes it impossible to feel sorry for you.

It might not just be media but reinforced by people around her. My mother close to her sixties lost a lot of weight due to health problems, and she mentioned how people have started to say particular comments to her that they think is compliments meanwhile she's scared of withering away and have to fight to eat more. The world is really Weird and creepy at times

I agree, I was struck by how unwell she looks even before it was mentioned. I have never been much of a fan as most of what she proposes is out or reach for most people and maybe that is a good thing. And yes, I don't want to be unkind. I can't help but think her experiences in Hollywood have shaped her. I hope she gets some help but sometimes having too many resources doesn't help.

Agreed with everything you have said

You did an excellent job summarizing her "wellness routine" and brought up some interesting points. Such as her constant detoxing! She's been "detoxing" for 2 decades. People who have a nutritionally sound diet and lifestyle don't need to be detoxing. And that effing IV; I'm SO sick of celebrities and their IVs. The "Real Housewives" do them all the time to cure hangovers. It's too sickening and grotesque for words how these uber rich a-holes abuse these things and there are people out there who can't afford their NECESSARY Rx medications. She's rather disgusting. She eats like a demented character from "The Crimson Petal and the White" who boasted she only ate "beef broth for lunch" and if she's extra hungry at supper she'll "eat a plate of green beans."

So true everything you say in this video.

I'm 1:27 minutes in and I'm in shock 😲. How somebody is allowed to share that openly on the media without any trigger warning or some sort of warning, to many red flags for me!

Idk if she still does but I recall her saying she smokes “one cigarette.” I don’t remember how often. Maybe that’s what she’s trying to detox.

the IV is crazy. i know we’ve started to normalize it for hangovers but i’m just shook that this has become a thing.

Just this morning I was reading an article about how "Souping is the best way to Lose Weight Over 50"! I'm 53, and I'm working to lose fat. But I was thinking "Can't I do that while eating solid food?!?!?" Then I watched a video about all the types of plastic surgery people are getting, and how young many of the patients are. And I thought "I'm just gonna get old". Finally, it's very worrying that GP follows this protocol, especially considering that her mom was very vocal about having Osteoporosis a few years ago.

I didn't even know IV's were a freaking thing... Wow...

I know I need to dial back on my focus on my diet and exercise when I start fixating on what and when I'm eating too hard

This is not a wellness routine, this is an illness routine

English is my second language, and I am not so confident in abbreviations. So when he said “you have an IV”, and they discussed it so casually, I was very confused and have decided I misheard or misunderstood it. I had to google “IV” to get sure it is really this thing which goes to your veins via needle, and I am in shock. Why on earth a more or less healthy person, perfectly capable of eating, would do that with themselves?? And moreover, they promote it like that! It is insane.

Dry brush+sauna is literally the worst skin combo

Out of curiosity, will you ever do a video about skinny fat physique? And how to combat it? I've read some controversy on skinny fat.

People who think of health/wellness the way GP does shrink their world so small. Being so rigid is not living.

The messaging behind some of the celebrities is so scary. I dont think they realize just how many desperate people listen and take what they want from what they say.

Getting close to 40k subscribers. 🎉😊

Jay Shetty's recent podcast is with Dr. Will Cole. I haven't listened yet but am curious now. I've never heard of him before but the clips you've shown are 😬. Is this the first you've heard of him?

Good luck recruiting volunteers for the rectal ozone studies 😂😂😂

Love it 👍👍👍👍

What fascinates me the most is that normal people are usually not too thrilled about having a needle in their vein or having things shoved up their butt and rich people are doing that for fun 🤔

thanks!

Omg..I love this.

When I get overweight to an obese level, I have tried healthy keto which involves just eating normal meat not processed ones and loads of vegetables and some fat. It does help me to lose weight dramatically along with intermittent fasting. So these things work. Though it will not be a life long commitment, these diet do help if you want to lose weight and have some discipline. As long as you know when to stop and eat proper meals make your life satisfied, that is all that matters.

Gaunt is the word I’d use to describe how she looks.

I take liposomal glutithione which my Dr recommended for me.

I feel that the more money you have the more life can get complicated with too many choices available for you that aren't necessary to take. 😬 Sometimes we can be happier with "less".

So many Chiropractors give diet and nutrition advice on social media. Don’t get me wrong chiropractors are extremely smart educated people but they aren’t Dietitian’s.

I'm such a huge fan of you and your channel, Justina! I don't necessarily disagree with anything you've said here, but on the topic of responsibility, I think if you're going to do a deep dive like this, you should listen to the full interview. We tend to see a small clip and create a full opinion, which at best is bad for our critical thinking, and at worst, damaging and dangerous. Gwyneth absolutely has some beyond-red flag and out of touch habits, but she also talks a lot more about the actual food she eats, as well as her food intolerances and health issues that lead her to make the choices she does. The way these clips are edited is misleading. (I want to be clear: I don't normally listen to this podcast, nor do I follow Gwyneth and her routines. I only did because I saw at the drama and I'm nosy / like to be informed.) You could listen to it and have the exact same opinion about her routine, and that's fine! This isn't me defending Gwyneth Paltrow, it's about seeing the full picture before solidifying an opinion. Just my two cents :)

Her routine is equal parts funny and depressing to me. It is important to take care of one's health but at the same time, people don't go to one's death thinking about this stuff.

She looks so frail. I hope she gets help.

Oh. My. Lord.

I find it fascinating that people with larger platforms feel none of the responsibility that you feel with a successful but relatively smaller platform. Thanks for keeping it real.

I’m finding it hard to feel sorry for her, as she is contributing to suffering of others with her products and influence. I don’t know if she has started menopause yet, or if her regime has already messed up her hormones, but I worry that it’s going to cause a whole other level of weirdness for her.

I have been avoiding the Gwyneth video though I've been seeing it everywhere. This is a business for her. I'm not mad at it because most of the women who buy that crap can also afford to do the research and figure out it's nonsense.

I thought her exercise choices were interesting, too. Walks and pilates are great, but I wonder if she only does them because she doesn't have the energy for strength and cardio. But hey, she has the ultimate comeback if someone tries to tell her to 'stick it where the sun don't shine'..... 😂

Ozone and sunshine are not the same thing

Is she ok😮

i would be not surprise of the next wellness trend it is hemodialysis lol

I used to love GP. But you're right , looking at her in this video she really doesn't look well. She needs a new doctor and some real food.

I mean, all you have to do is look at her. She doesn't look healthy. SHe looks burnt out, her skin lacks luster, eyes look lacking hydration and more.

as far as i know the podcast is audio only, they film the whole thing and use the footage for clips, it's so strange. it's even weirder that she probably released to bury her ski accident lawsuit :/ outrage marketing idk, she promotes so much harmful bullshit and pseudoscience, it shouldn't be legal

Not trying to defend GP because Goop is whack, but I think you were overly harsh. She gave a very general and brief idea of her diet and everyone took it as if that is ALL she eats. She generalized what she eats. She said she eats Paleo and a lot of vegetables. In none of these cases do we actually know how much she ate of anything. I think Kiana Docherty did a very rational take on this GP video and how everyone was taking it really out of context. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m9N6Z6mlvqjTc2Q.html Also, saying she looks sick is in poor taste. To me, she just looks like a thin 40-50 something year old woman and like she's not wearing make-up. Yet again, I don't support GP and think the idea of detoxing and using an IV is absolutely ridiculous but I think your take on this was a bit off in some areas.

Girl said “soup “ when she meant bone broth 💀 this so dangerous.

Willing to bet she wouldn't need those IV's to feel better if she just ate like a normal healthy person....

I generally agree with you but you shouldnt put all naturopathic and functional medicine in the same box. Like Dr.Oz pushes a lot of nonense but no one says that all MDs are quacks. You can get certified by reputable institutions in functional medicine, I even know a lot of MDs/nurses who learn about functional medicine later on in their career.

she probably has to go in the sauna for 30 mins because she's freezing

her name is goopy GwenETH.

no wonder she got early osteoporosis

Where’s the food Gwynn ? 😂 if she ate maybe she wouldn’t need an IV 🤔

Gwen looks weak. She has no glow about her anymore. Intermittent and even a moderate fasting regimen have been proven to be healthful ( just read a National Geographic article this week about it). But that's not her issue. She seems to be lacking adequate protein and chasing non caloric health regimens. It sounds very unhealthy...her eating sounds quite disordered. It's sad.

She seems so sad and hollow.

She also was a very strong advocate AGAINST any sort of botox... well she's a spokesperson for the poison now. I've been sick for 2 years and 6 mos from botox..I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't systemically spread

Honest review of feelings about the marketing but doesn't do a full series or let alone a week of workouts… This loses credibility quickly. People came here to know how the workouts are. We know marketing practices on social media largely are not great. Some of us come in with the right mind set and nutrition work already done.

Nice video. In my opinion she looks awful - not healthy at all. And yea this is a big problem for women trying to emulate her.

Also...what are your credentials ? You said nothing about your own food habits.

Her eating habits are fine...leave her alone ! Plus she exercises

🍰🍥🧁🍨🍧🍦🧀This makes me want to watch her cheerfully moww down a bunch of chocolate éclairs, napoleons, Gelato, macarons, and cheesecake 🤣🤣🤣 I feel bad for her kids. It's a damn shame none of her Dr's and other medical professionals aren't being honest with her about being strong, fit, relatable, approachable, and accessible.

As someone working in health care, her using IV's instead of actually eating and sleeping is insane. An IV is always a risk for infection!! Also, your veins do not like being punctuterd with needles, why would you do it when it's not necessary? 🥲
