Vent: That viral 'drink celery juice every morning' thumbnail got me good

I saw this crazy before-and-after pic on a YouTube thumbnail and figured why not try it for a week. Day 1 I was gagging on the stuff, by day 3 I had the worst stomach cramps of my life. Turns out my body just can't handle that much fiber on an empty stomach, and I spent the rest of the week regretting it. I learned that those flashy thumbnails are usually selling a one-size-fits-all fix that doesn't work for everyone. Has anyone else had a health trend backfire after chasing a clickbait promise?

Honestly that acv stuff wrecked me too, did you ever get your stomach to fully recover or are you still dealing with issues from it?
