Bethenny Frankel says this ‘absurd’ health fad is ‘out of control’ — and reveals her own top wellness musts-quang

   

You can totally have too much of a good thing.

Bethenny Frankel always has her finger on the pulse of what’s trending in the wellness world, but there’s one popular obsession that has her confused.

She told The Post that the fad has gotten overboard — and shared the health and wellness musts she’s actually into right now.

Bethenny Frankel told The Post that the obsession with loading up on protein has gotten out of control.

“The obsession with protein is an out-of-control fad that everyday people are fixated on as if they’re training for the Olympics,” she said.

These days, health-conscious TikTokers are packing as much protein into their diets as possible, whether it be with supplements or protein-enhanced snacks like Khloé Kardashian’s Khloud protein popcorn.

But studies show that there is such a thing as eating too much protein — and it can make you gain weight, clog your arteries and raise insulin-like growth factor 1 levels.

“They can also be high calorie dense. It’s another marketing gimmick like keto or carnivore or low carb or all the absurd fads I’ve witnessed over the years. Balance is key,” Frankel said.

 

The trend has clearly been bugging the reality star this summer. In a July TikTok video, she wondered, “Are people walking down the street and their brittle bones are giving out on them?”

“Why? What are we doing? Are you a triathlete? Are you Arnold Schwarzenegger?”

On the flip side, she’s also not into “tricked-out lattes,” which, she says, “are getting extreme.”

“It’s another marketing gimmick like keto or carnivore or low carb or all the absurd fads I’ve witnessed over the years,” she said.

She also doesn’t like “tricked-out lattes” with high sugar content and flavors, which, she says, “are getting extreme.”

“Blueberry, banana, pistachio, Nutella and caramel lattes can be great treats but not every day,” Frankel said.

“I know for myself things that tend to have a high sugar content really affect my energy and brain health throughout the day,” she added.

So what is Bethenny into? Balance, for one.

“Nothing crazy works,” she said. To maintain or lose weight, make sure you burn as many or more calories than you consume. Moderate exercise, balanced eating and a healthy relationship with both is the key, she noted.

“I think people are too extreme in their routines and it wears them down and creates an unrealistic bar to maintain,” Frankel added.

She also gets massages regularly and likes to “really balance out being social with nesting.”

Frankel has teamed up with Dose, a liver health supplement, and says she takes a shot of it every morning.

“I beach walk every day,” she said. “I think walking and being in and near the ocean is the most healing of all practices. I think swimming is such a great form of therapy and exercise.”

She’s into supplements, too, and recently teamed up with Dose to promote their zero-calorie, sugar-free liver support drink that has potassium, turmeric, milk thistle extract and ginger powder.

The active ingredient in turmeric is cumin, a compound rich in antioxidants. Potassium can help lower your blood pressure and keep your bones strong, while milk thistle may help liver function and prevent brain decline.

“I take a daily Dose for your liver shot, concentrated vitamin C and elderberry,” Frankel said.

“I’m religious about it when feeling drained or under the weather. The Dose shots taste like orange juice and help maintain liver function, aid in digestion and boost my energy levels so it’s a win-win,” she added.
