Take for instance the current pervasiveness of pre-workout and the dangerous methods of its consumption,\u201d abstract author Nelson Chow, a Princeton University student and Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics Research intern at Cohen Children\u2019s Medical Center, said in a press release, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aap.org\/en\/news-room\/news-releases\/aap\/2021\/research-dangerous-challenge-on-dry-scooping-pre-workout-powder-is-prevalent-popular-on-internet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according<\/a> to Study Finds. \u201cSometimes investigating unorthodox platforms like TikTok\u00a0can yield valuable results.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The press release says:<\/p>\n<p><em>Users were at extremely high risk of overconsumption or accidental inhalation of pre-workout powder. The videos also feature the mixing of pre-workout with substances such as energy drinks and alcohol, according to the research.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The author collected 100 TikTok videos under the hashtag \u201c#preworkout\u201d and analyzed the following data: likes, method of ingestion, number of servings, and combination with other substances. About 64% of the videos featured males, 30% females and 6% both or ambiguous. Only 8% of videos depicted use according to instruction. The most popular substances consumed alongside pre-workout were energy drinks, creatine\/protein powder, and alcohol.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The author suggests that physicians should be aware of the pervasiveness of pre-workout, dangerous methods of consumption, and the potential for accidental overconsumption, inhalation, and injury.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There have been other recent disturbing trends on TikTok.
