TikTok Lion Diet trend could leads to serious health consequences including high cholesterol and bad breath

Nutritionists are warning about a new diet craze taking TikTok by storm that could have serious health consequences.

The Lion Diet has become popular with young people on the social media platform but it follows a set rule of foods that over time can negatively impact health. They include salt, water and red meat for one month.
