[Asia Economy Reporter Cho Hyun-ui] A UK health official has criticized Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow's claim that she overcame aftereffects of COVID-19 by eating kimchi and other foods as "false information."

Steven Powis, National Medical Director for NHS England, said on the 24th (local time), "Some of the measures Paltrow recommends are not endorsed by the NHS."

Paltrow recently revealed that she experienced "brain fog" symptoms after contracting COVID-19. She said that during her recovery, she focused on intermittent fasting and a plant-based diet including kimchi.

Director Powis stated, "False information, like viruses, crosses borders, mutates, and evolves," adding, "We must take long-term COVID-19 aftereffects seriously and approach them scientifically." He also emphasized, "Celebrities using social media have a duty to act responsibly."
