Yovana "Rawvana" Mendoza
It's great that the internet offers a whole universe of information about health, but taking diet advice from someone just because they have a YouTube channel is never a good idea. Case in point, Yovana Mendoza, who previously went by "Rawvana," was peddling a "raw vegan" lifestyle to over one million people. Turns out that lifestyle had damaged her own health, and even she wasn't really sticking to it. This all came out when she was caught eating fish on a video posted by another vlogger. Her dedicated fans were outraged and felt lied to. In a (nevertheless ad-packed) apology video, she explained that she started incorporating eggs and meat into her diet at the behest of her doctors because the raw vegan diet (which she was still promoting!) was making her physically sick and weak. Hmmm.
