The Unexpected and Controversial Rise of MrBeast to YouTube Superstardom

MrBeast went on Joe Rogan Experience to discuss his diagnosis and treatment of Crohn’s disease with the host and his listeners. He had repeatedly stated on camera that he must monitor his diet in order to control the symptoms, which led to significant weight loss when he was a teen.

He went on to describe how it has affected his day-to-day life, explaining how difficult it is to socialize with his pals because of his condition and how he has to constantly bring his own food to stay on his special diet. Donaldson explained that he hoped to use his platform to reach out to teenagers who had been diagnosed with Crohn’s.
