A Medical Doctor Breaks Down Cristina Cuomo's Luxury, Questionable Covid-19 Treatment

Cristina Cuomo, wife of CNN’s Chris Cuomo and sister-in-law to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, is on the mend after a covid-19 diagnosis, a steady recovery she attributes not to mainstream doctors or health heroes, but a slew of alternative health remedies. The self-described “wellness worshiper” is a steadily rising star in the already crowded wellness influencer field, and she even has her own wellness periodical with star-studded covers to help prove her bona fides. However, the experts she turned to for advice during her recent covid-19 scare include a CEO who believes cancer is caused by bad vibes and a Goop-approved naturopathic healer, who claims that bathing in diluted bleach rids the body of radiation.

Not long after her husband Chris made headlines late March following his covid-19 diagnosis, Cristina too became afflicted with the virus. It’s been a stressful ordeal for the mother of three, especially now that her son, Mario, has also been diagnosed with the virus, which has infected over one million people in the United States and has killed 56,500. Cristina Cuomo has been meticulously chronicling both her and her husband’s covid-19 regimen for her wellness publication, The Purist, covering everything from the supplements they took to the Ayurvedic diet both she and Chris adopted.

“Many of the treatments that I relied on are actually cheaper than conventional medicine, like the broth of cayenne pepper, ginger and garlic or the lemon and ginger tea or vitamin C,” Cristina wrote in the blog post highlighting her specific treatment plan.

But Cristina didn’t just boil hunks of ginger root and spiced broth as her treatment: She also took a bath in diluted Clorox bleach, received an IV vitamin drip, and rented a PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) portable machine.
