LiverDoc recently criticized South actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu for promoting questionable health advice, including Hydrogen Peroxide Nebulisation. Now, LiverDoc has also targeted Nayanthara for suggesting hibiscus tea as a remedy for diabetes, high blood pressure, and other issues.
Nayanthara shared on Instagram that hibiscus tea is her favorite, praising its antioxidant benefits and claims of helping with diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and skin issues. She also noted its value during the monsoon for boosting immunity and combating infections.

Reacting to her post, LiverDoc wrote, “If she had stopped at hibiscus tea is kind of tasty, that would have been ok. But no, they have to go ahead and blow their health-illiteracy trumpet and also claim that hibiscus tea is helpful in diabetes, high blood pressure, acne, antibacterial and protects against the flu. Well, none of the above claims have been proven.”
After noticing that Nayanthara had deleted her post without issuing an official apology, the LiverDoc wrote, “The post was deleted, but there was no apology or accountability. It was like a surgical strike on public health. We need laws to prevent this kind of behaviour from celebrities and to empower registered medical practitioners (non-Ayush) to provide evidence-based scientific education for better public health decisions.”
Later, Nayanthara shared a cryptic post on her story, seemingly taking a jibe at the LiverDoc. The post read, “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”
