Tiktok and other social medias are a common platform to spread misinformation about these juice diets. Some of the people I have come across encouraging people to go on these juice diets are @naturobella and @charniqg on tik tok. In the videos they are promoting the diet, giving recipes for juices and, telling people (who are most likely young children) to deprive themselves of certain foods. Over 50% of the audience on tiktok are as young as 8 years old. At this age they are very impressionable and will believe and perform these diets. As well as it could lead to a unhealthy relationship with food.
