It looks innocent — a golden tea in a cozy mug. But doctors have been whispering warnings about this “night drink” for years. Now, new reports are backing up the rumors.
It’s called Golden Root Elixir, and it’s gone viral on wellness TikTok for helping with sleep, inflammation, and even libido. But what influencers didn’t mention? The bizarre side effects some users are reporting.
Strange Side EffectsOne man claimed he drank it every night before bed for two weeks — then started sleepwalking. Not around the house. Outside. On the street. At 2AM.
A woman on Reddit wrote that her dreams became “lucid to the point of possession.” She swears she spoke to her grandmother — who passed away in 2004.
Another man? Claimed he started craving raw garlic. Every. Single. Night.
What’s in It?Most recipes include turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, and honey — all natural. But some variations add ashwagandha or valerian root, which interact with brain chemistry and sedatives.
Experts say: Don’t mix with prescription meds. And don’t chug it like water. Especially if you’re prone to vivid dreams or night terrors.
