With so many viral wellness trends and health information circulating online, it’s sometimes hard to keep track of what’s healthy and what's not. It can get pretty confusing when you start scrolling on TikTok and the first video you see is promoting intuitive eating, while the second is trying to sell you the 75-hard workout plan.

Scroll down to find the most popular answers deserving a healthy rebranding and a conversation with the person who started this discussion in the first place.
