The new TikTok "Sleepy Chicken" Challenge is getting a lot of attention, especially from the doctors and medical experts, as they find it can endanger people's health.
"The idea that by saturating any food product in a medicine believing that it will provide some novel health benefit or cure is not just stup*d, but incredibly dangerous," said Dr. Jeff Foster, one of the founders of the national medical company H3 Health.

He added that TikTok users are currently using Nyquil in an incorrect manner since they are not following the recommended doses. The doctor further explained that proper medicine doses are there for a reason.

Foster also warned that if you marinate a chicken using Nyquil and cook it, the medicine's water and alcohol will quickly evaporate. Once this happens, the meat will be covered by the medicine's concentrated ingredients.
