Salmon Sperm Facials, Shilajit & Placenta-Eating

Stacey Dooley and Dr Alex George explore salmon sperm skincare, the ancient energy supplement shilajit, and the growing trend of placenta-eating; separating real science from viral

Next, they test Shilajit, a tar like supplement with concerns over heavy metal contamination. Finally, they explore placenta consumption, finding that some mothers swear by it, but does this outweigh the risks?
