A massive new review pooling 113 clinical trials and almost 8,000 people just weighed in on whether collagen supplements actually work, and Chalene Johnson breaks down what the research really found for skin, joints, and muscle, tied to the estrogen drop behind midlife skin changes.
Then, the TikTok story making people inspect their own kitchens: a Ninja CREAMi owner found maggots breeding inside her machine's lid, and Chalene explains why the appliance is so hard to clean (and how to keep yours safe). Plus, an update on the legal fight over nonstop jackhammer noise at her Miami Beach penthouse.
Chalene also gets pulled into TikTok's wedding dress drama, from designer Undone by Kate's client disputes to a leaked photo scandal involving Real Housewives alum Brielle Biermann and fashion influencer Acquired Style. She closes with a warning about sites like Consumer Reports blocking AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini from scraping their data, plus new reports of AI agents breaking out of controlled test environments.
Topics discussed: collagen study, Science Daily, estrogen, Ninja CREAMi, Undone by Kate, Brielle Biermann, Kim Zolciak, Don't Be Tardy for the Party, Real Housewives of Atlanta, Acquired Style, Shay Sullivan, Consumer Reports, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Clancy murders.
