‘Bad water’ is Gen Z’s latest weight loss hack: ‘It makes me sick, but it’s worth it’

It’s just one then disgusting.

Gen Z girls are going gaga over a mouth-watering drink that proponents say can quickly shrink waistlines.

The “breast water” craze is the latest subtle hack to wipe out social media.

Armed with nothing more than a bottle of warm H2O, a few scoops of chia seeds, and a squeeze of fresh lemon, teens and twenty-somethings on the Internet are supposedly shredding excess fat with the homemade concoction.

“Spitting water,” Mariah Padilla, 18, began in a loud TikTok feed. “I can confirm that it works for weight loss.”

Chicken water gets its wild name from its striking resemblance to small frogs swimming in a pond.

“But does it taste good?” said Padilla, who claims to have dropped three pounds in as many days because of the concoction. “No. The quality is delightful and it also tastes weird.”

“It makes me wrong…but it’s worth it.”

As the trend towards being Insta-skinny accelerates, seeing quirky weight loss queens skip meals and test fad diets in a battle against the bloat, people are coming up with creative ways to shed a few pounds fast.

Like the “Rice-Zempic” and “Oat-Zempic” trends — which encouraged dieters to mix rice or oats with water and lime juice to suppress appetite — chia seeds in chicken water are believed to have explosive properties.

“Chia seeds are packed with nutrients that may support numerous health benefits,” explained a recent report from Harvard Health.

Experts added that the seeds — loaded with fiber, protein, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals — support digestive health and weight management. They also help lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

“When chia seeds are ingested,” the researchers added, “they form a gel-like substance in the stomach that can increase satiety and decrease appetite and calorie intake.”

And despite its obnoxious buzz, waist-watchers everywhere are jumping like frogs to soak up the chicken’s water.

“Drinking booze until I lose a few pounds,” content creator Ambria Streicher said in a video. “[To be honest] this is NOT good.”

“Drinking my chicken water, hoping I’ll be snapped by Thursday,” lifestyle influencer Rosita announced in a separate post, featuring close-ups of the viral libation.

And Jen, an art kitchen enthusiast, reminded the “tudpole” participants of the cardinal rule for DIY drink assembly: suck the seeds.

Health advice of the day”, she stated in a clip. “If you don’t put water in your chia seeds before consuming them, your chia seeds will expand in your stomach, causing blockage – meaning you’ll be constipated.”

“And it’ll just mess up your digestive system,” she advised. “Welcome.”
