MrBeast’s Challenge Of Not Eating For 30 Days ‘Had An Effect’ On His Crohn’s Disease

Published 10/12/2022, 8:30 AM EDT

It is a well-known fact that MrBeast suffers from Crohn’s disease. Which means that he has been suffering from an inflated gut for a very long time. So, it is a surprise that he still allows himself to eat junk food despite being in constant pain for it.

Shockingly, in one of his videos, the million-dollar content creator claimed to have not eaten for 30 days. He did an extended period of fasting and did an experiment on himself to find a cure for his disease.

In his video ‘I didn’t eat for 30 days’, MrBeast made a personal record by not eating for 14 days straight. Despite being a failed challenge, the video got a lot of praise from his fans, who congratulated him for pushing his boundary of not eating food for so many days.

But in the pinned comment of the video, he explained how he did not think of making the video for entertainment only, but was actually trying to experiment on himself with a theory that fasting can actually help Crohn’s. He posted the comment saying, “I have Crohn’s disease (basically my gut has tons of inflammation), and I wanted to give it a break from food to see if that would help reduce inflammation because Crohn’s sucks.”

He also added, “I learned a lot about how I can use fasting to reduce my inflammation, and I’m glad I did this challenge.” Notably, he had to quit the challenge while in the midst of it because of world-renowned chef Gordon Ramsay forcing Jimmy to eat.

Scientifically, Crohn’s is a very serious illness and the worst part is that it doesn’t have any cure for it. Therefore, fasting seems like a very reasonable thing to do. This is because fasting can help the patient to some extent, but excessive fasting can be lethal to the body.

Also, fasting can give the guts the required rest, but if the process of staying hungry continues, it might develop some other complications in the body. Thus MrBeast might have felt better after the initial few days, but since he continued fasting, the experiment might have affected him in another way like fatigue, loss of sense, nausea, and many other symptoms.
