Get Great Skin By Letting Bees Sting You - Advice That Ended A Woman
[ranking: 1]
In 2018, an article in the Journal of Investigational Allergology revealed a 55-year-old woman passed from something called apitherapy. This is a form of therapy in which a patient is intentionally stung by bees. Proponents claim it can reduce inflammation and scarring, but scientists and doctors find the therapy dangerous. In the article, authors P. Vazquez-Revuelta and R. Madrigal-Burgaleta state there is limited proof the therapy is safe and that it actually has great potential to be dangerous.
This is especially true with repeated therapy, which could make someone much more sensitive to bee stings. The woman who passed from the therapy had been receiving it every four weeks for two years. During the fatal session, she lost consciousness and passed several weeks later.
As is par for the course for Paltrow and Goop, they've endorsed the treatment repeatedly even though it's widely regarded as dangerous by the scientific community. Paltrow has personally talked up the therapy both in Goop and a New York Times interview, in which she stated bee sting therapy is "pretty incredible."
How To Be A Hipster
[ranking: 11]
By the very nature of "hipsterdom," any write up on hipster places or trends immediately revokes its hipster status - it's science. What self-respecting hipster would ever go to a place that has been written about by Goop? They'd be forced to shave off their mustaches and hand in their flannel immediately.
But allegedly, Paltrow knows "where LA's most pace-setting crowd hangs out."
The Best Health Remedies Are The Ones Gwyneth Has Invested In
[ranking: 4]
Paltrow discloses that she has invested in products she is promoting on her site. Not a big deal, unless the entire purpose of the site (in her own words) is to provide unbiased advice. It's hard to take any of her advice seriously, but this takes the gluten-free cake.
Office Supplies Should Be Cute
[ranking: 21]
Want proof Paltrow has never worked in a real office? Look no further than her office supply article. The assertion that colored pencils are a need suggests her experience in an office-like environment extends as far as high school or a Google training video.
Sex Bark Is Delicious
[ranking: 17]
A central ingredient of Goop's Sex Bark is Sex Dust. Apparently, Sex Dust is "an aphrodisiac warming potion." Um, what happened to booze and a little Barry White?
Costco Is A Great Place For An Adventure
[ranking: 24]
Paltrow documented her trip to Costco. She called Costco her "spiritual home" and considered her trip there an "adventure." Most people call it a "place to get as many free samples as possible" and consider at least one of the mystery dips consumed a "grave mistake." Potato, potahto.
