Zac Efron Says He Suffered A “Pretty Bad Depression” Because Of His “Baywatch” Body
Hey, remember when Zac Efron was in the Baywatch movie?
Frank Masi / Everett CollectionWell, according to Zac, it was pretty miserable.
Pacific Press / LightRocket via Getty ImagesIn a new interview with Men’s Health, Zac admitted that the lengths he had to go to in order to achieve his Baywatch body were unnecessarily extreme — and they did some damage in the long run.
Samir Hussein / Getty Images / WireImageZac expressed doubt that his “look” in the film is “really attainable,” and noted that he had to use a powerful diuretic to achieve it.
Frank Masi / Everett CollectionAccording to the Mayo Clinic, diuretics “help rid your body of salt (sodium) and water.”
“There’s just too little water in the skin. Like, it’s fake,” he said, later adding, “I don’t need to do that. I much prefer to have an extra, you know, 2 to 3% body fat.”
Frank Masi / Everett CollectionBecause of those powerful diuretics, Zac ended up experiencing some mental health issues as well.
Frank Masi / Everett Collection“I started to develop insomnia and I fell into a pretty bad depression for a long time,” he said. “Something about that experience burned me out.”
Frank Masi / Everett Collection“I had a really hard time re-centering. Ultimately, they chalked it up to taking way too many diuretics for way too long, and it messed something up.”
Elizabeth Goodenough / Everett CollectionZac’s experience serves as a great reminder that, when it comes to your own personal goals, just being yourself and embracing who you are is more important than anything else.
