British National Health Service chief says The Goop Lab poses "a considerable health risk"

BBC News

NHS England chief executive Simon Stevens said the Gwyneth Paltrow wellness docuseries spreads "misinformation." Stevens took aim at the "dubious wellness products and dodgy procedures" featured in the series while speaking at an academic event in Oxford on Thursday. "Goop has just popped up with a new TV series, in which Gwyneth Paltrow and her team test vampire facials and back a body worker, who claims to cure both acute psychological trauma and side-effects by simply moving his hands two inches above a customer's body," he said. "Her brand peddles psychic vampire repellent, says chemical sunscreen is a bad idea, and promotes colonic irrigation and DIY coffee enema machines, despite them carrying considerable risks to health."
