Viral TikTok Challenge Dares Kids To Pour Salt In Their Throats

The internet is full of memes, entertainment, fails, and other things, but one thing that you can’t rid off are viral TikTok challenges.

In the latest TikTok challenge, kids and adults are being challenged to pour salt down their salts.

Landon, a TikTok user, shared a video on their account, where he could be seen pouring a full container of white salt into his mouth.

This horrible and extremely dangerous stunt caused him to gag and spit the white salt out.

The video that Landon shared was captioned with “someone try this”.

Jonathan, a TikTok user, accepted the challenge of Landon, and filmed himself attempt the bizarre challenge.

He said, “Salt challenge! This was disgusting.”

Social media users are trying to take part in this bizarre and dangerous challenge, but doctors said this challenge should not be followed.

Dr. Simran Deo, a UK-based online Doctor, said, “As a doctor, I would strongly recommend that people do not participate in this activity. Eating too much salt is very bad for your health both immediately and in the long run. In the short term, depending on how much you’ve ingested, eating too much salt can be poisonous.”

An increase rise in sodium levels in our bodies can increase thirst, make us confused, force us to vomit and make us nauseous.

If the sodium levels in our bodies are extremely high, it can lead to seizures, coma, and sometimes death.

High sodium level causes the brain to swell up inside the skill.

Dr. Deo added, “UK guidelines recommend limiting your salt intake to around one teaspoon a day – but lots of foods are high in salt, so it’s worth checking the labels on things like bread, crisps, pasta sauce, sausages and breakfast cereals, and swapping to lower salt options, where possible.”

Kids, don’t do this, you don’t want to end up in the wrong place.
