Polish singer Doda embraces mushroom cocoa and bold Instagram post, sparking health and body‑image debate

Polish pop star Doda announced on social media that she stopped drinking coffee about 18 months ago and now drinks cocoa enriched with medicinal mushrooms—Cordyceps, Chaga, Lion’s Mane, Reishi and Shiitake. She said the change eliminated anxiety, panic attacks and depressive episodes, describing her life as “a thousand times better.” Psychiatrist Maja Herman noted that while reducing caffeine can benefit people prone to anxiety, unregulated supplement use may carry risks and advised consulting a medical professional before making such changes.

In a separate Instagram post, Doda shared a training‑session photo that prominently displayed her buttocks in a skimpy outfit. Fans praised her physique, while some critics accused her of seeking attention and objectifying herself. The mixed responses underscored an ongoing public debate about celebrity body‑image displays on social media.
