Episode 10
When Jo from Broadstairs heard that her friend was battling cancer and needed £45,000 for treatment abroad, she flew into action. She organised concerts to raise money and enrolled the help of many friends in the process. But she was devastated to discover that the whole thing was a lie, enabling her friend to live a lavish lifestyle of champagne and casinos.
Plus, when Marcelle decided on a little treat for herself, she booked what she thought was a botox treatment, just to smooth a few things out. But she soon found herself in a living nightmare, with her face swollen to dangerous levels. We reveal the red flags to look out for if looking for any sort of non-surgical procedures.
And we meet Mark Fox, a victim of one of the UK's biggest ever medical health scares, the infected blood scandal, one that has been running for 40 years.
Also, the sauna blanket. With 12.6 million views on TikTok, it is touted as a remedy for many conditions, including reducing cellulite and helping you to lose weight. But is it worth the money?
Finally, 10,000 steps a day. Many of us believe this number is the key to staying healthy. But where did it come from, and is it really a magic number?
