anna nicole smith and ephedra

[ricorico]

looks like some more bad publicity for ephedrine. Being that she was the "face" of trimspa (ephedra based diet pill). Now they are speculating whether or not it had something to do wit hher sudden death. fuckin media.

Right. I think it had more to do with the fact that the father of her recently born child was her recently deceased biological son.

I doubt that will get much play, considering she drowned in her own vomit.

Really, is that what is being said?

Was she a cocaine user?

Trim Spa doesnt even have ephedra in it any more does it?

EXPLOSIVE NEW CLAIM: SMITH CHOKED ON HER OWN VOMIT

HOLLYWOOD, Fla. (February 8, 2007) -- According to a credible source, an employee of Anna Nicole Smith found her in her room in the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. The employee pulled back a sheet and discovered that she appeared to have choked on her own vomit.

The same source claims that Smith took what was referred to as a "children's sedative," and had "kept passing out" before her death.

AccessHollywood.com has learned from this same source that one of the attending physicians at Memorial Regional Hospital was Dr. Randy Katz. When we contacted Dr. Katz, he acknowledged that he was indeed an attending physician, but Dr. Katz would not comment on any specifics related to his care of Smith.

not any more, but back when she was the face for the product it did (ie, the ones she took to lose weight did)....CNN was talkin about the possiblity of it playing a role in her death....and my thread got moved here, i didnt put this in the diet forum, actuualy had it in the AAS forum (not that it belongs there either)....

Hmm - I would suspect she died from pulmonary edema caused by drug complications.
