A new “health” trend is taking over social media – but doctors have warned it’s “not just stupid, but incredibly dangerous”.

But doctors have warned people to steer clear of the latest fad – as it poses a danger to your health,The so-called “sleepy chicken” trend sees users concocting their very own chicken dish, braised in a cold and flu remedy.

Several videos on TikTok show people making the “dish”, with some using close to half a bottle of the medicine for their meat. “The case of NyQuil chicken is no different. The idea that by saturating any food product in a medicine believing that it will provide some novel health benefit or cure is not just stupid, but incredibly dangerous.”

Dr Hartman explained that this could actually lead to food poisoning, which will likely lead to sickness and diarrhoea. Dr Foster added: “We have doses on medicines for a reason. If you soak a food in it, and then cook it, you are very likely to overdose or at least have no idea what dose you are getting.

“You would never dream of taking a whole box of paracetamol in one go, and yet there is really little difference. The safety risk is just so unbelievably high.”
