Gwyneth Fighting Goop Critics

Gwyneth Paltrow is fighting back against critics who say her namesake brand Goop practices pseudoscience.

The newlywed and Goop CEO recently sat down with the BBC to address the criticism. She defendsGoop‘s alt medicinal push, saying: “We really believe that there are healing modalities that have existed thousands of years, and they challenge maybe a very conventional western doctor that might not believe necessarily in the healing powers of essential oils or any variety of acupuncture. Things that have been tried and tested for hundreds of years.”

Patrow continues: “We find that they are very healthy to people and there’s an incredible power in the human body to heal itself. So I think any time you are trying to move the needles and you’re trying to empower women, you find resistance and we just think that’s part of what we do and we’re proud to do it. ”
