For once, Gwyneth Paltrow's health tips have provoked cries of indignation.

In a January 18 video posted on the Instagram account of

Goop

, her beauty and wellness brand, the actress offered her followers a recipe for grilled salmon salad.

All to promote its 7-day elimination program, the “G.

Tox 7-Day Reset Kit”, at 195 dollars (about 180 euros).

On the menu: lettuce, spring onions, avocado, zucchini, asparagus and grilled salmon, seasoned with a “very simple chive and Dijon mustard vinaigrette”.

The problem ?

Gwyneth Paltrow presents her dish as part of a "detox kit", supposed to reset the body.

Claims that have revolted some Internet users.

Commercial aims denounced

"What's so great about this detox program is that there's a lot of food and it's really nutrient dense," the 50-year-old actress enthused.

We do not even notice that it is a detox cure.

While many Internet users found the recipe appetizing, alarmist voices were expressed in the comments under the video.

A user underlines for example that the term “detox” is used in the case of drug or alcohol withdrawal, and wonders: “Our organs detoxify us every day.

What food is such a poison that it is necessary to do a detox?

The commercial aims of the video have also been criticized.

“All this detox

bullshit

is just a way for you to make money, challenged a user posing as a nurse.

The liver and kidneys are responsible for cleaning the body of toxins.

This woman has no fucking idea what she's talking about."

"She's still detoxifying from what she eats," another person said.

It sounds obsessive and looks like an eating disorder.

It's unhealthy."

Unfounded health claims

Since the creation of

Goop

in 2008, the health claims propagated by Gwyneth Paltrow have regularly reacted to the Internet and the scientific community.

In 2015, she claimed, for example, to perform “vaginal saunas”, sitting naked on a commode from which steam from an aromatic herb escaped.

The boasted interest?

Clean the vagina thoroughly, preserve the health of her uterus and regulate menstruation, unfounded or even dangerous assertions, according to doctors.
