Viral Video: British Influencer Hospitalized After Drinking Bhang Lassi, Suspected Food Poisoning
A British influencer’s adventure in India took an unexpected turn after she drank bhang lassi and ended up hospitalized with suspected food poisoning. The incident, which quickly went viral on social media, shows the influencer trying the popular drink made with cannabis during her visit.
Soon after consuming it, she began feeling unwell and had to be rushed to the hospital for treatment. Doctors later confirmed that she was suffering from food poisoning, though it remains unclear if the bhang lassi was the direct cause.
The video has sparked a wave of reactions online, with some people warning about the potential risks of consuming unfamiliar substances while traveling, while others shared their own experiences with the potent drink.
Bhang lassi, made from a mixture of yogurt, spices, and cannabis, is a traditional drink in parts of India, especially during the Holi festival. However, it can have strong psychoactive effects, and tourists are often advised to consume it with caution.
The influencer has since updated her followers on her recovery, reminding others to be mindful of what they consume while exploring new cultures.
