The Salt Path doesn't make any sense until you understand its scandal
Summary: The Salt Path was a popular book and movie about a devoted couple, Raynor and Moth Winn. The story claimed they lost their home to a bad friend and decided to hike 630 miles. Amazingly, the long hike supposedly cured Moth's deadly brain disease, called CBD.
But a new report shows the inspiring story is actually a giant scam! The wife really lost their home because she stole money from her boss. Even worse, the husband's "miracle cure" gave false hope to real patients suffering from the fatal brain disease. Now, fans realize the uplifting movie is full of lies.
