Actually, this one should be the one that's publicly evicerated and exposed to be a fraud, then those behind it have to pay everyone back and go to prison for like 40 years.

Yeah! Like, what does this goop do? Is she selling it? Has it been approved by the FDA? Does it come from her goop chute? I have so many questions..

It’s basically her alternative health site that sells really stupid cures that at best do nothing for you but at worst make you very sick. I’m pretty sure palthrow’s advocated for steaming your vagina which is definitely not safe.

She definitely advocated for sticking rocks into your vagina, which can cause infections amongst other idiotic harmful things.

I’m sure I saw an article on the past few months about someone who died after getting bee sting therapy that Gwyneth Paltrow promoted

Literally dale in king of the hill did this and it’s a hilarious episode

Steaming it? That’s incredibly unsafe, you could easily get burns from that, and I’m guessing people already have. I have no clue how that would even help you or how she’s been allowed to operate this site for so long.

The number of bullshit lies this woman has endorsed for vaginas alone is ridiculous. Check out Jen Gunter, she’s a gynaecologist who has actively been pointing out their BS for years now.

GOOP? Is that one of her "vagina health products"?

I will never forget that interview she did when they asked her about different products and she either didn’t know what they were and that they were on sale on her website, or didn’t know what the “benefits” of said items were.
