In his latest video, Joel Hansen announced that the right side of his face has become paralyzed due to Ramsay Hunt syndrome, the same condition which affected Justin Bieber. He hopes to have a full recovery and will be taking a hiatus from new food challenge content in the meantime. Get well soon Joel.

    Fan theory on Joel’s latest “injury” / illness:

    Facial paralysis was actually caused by his use of steroids / peptides. Or he actually had a stroke.

    I guess the Ramsay Hunt explanation is also possibly true, but seems like he may be using this as a cover-up for the actual cause.

    @ 112&

    Whoa, Joel uses steroids? I thought his muscular build was a result of all his workouts and digesting the food challenges.
