    So Sad Which's why I always advocate not to take that stuff..many yrs ago, I was told that ______brand diet pills (forgot the names) would pay off the families of people that got sick/died frm taking them, so they could keep selling them.
    Also, while I'm on my soapbox here, I want to warn about those 'energy' drinks, they're bad too. Causing heart attacks.

    Why do people ingest shit like this?! More accurately, why do companies purposely do this shit?! Good god. I know a person can claim ignorance, but she was 21 and knows what a Google search is.

    I overdosed a few times when I was a teenager, so I can only imagine what she was going through mentally and physically. I feel for bad for the families that are losing their loved ones to this and hope that the companies supplying these 'diet pills' can somehow get held responsible (though I have a feeling they never will).

    This is so terrible...that's why I've always said, never take diet pills! you just never know what is in them and how your body will react. Its much better just to do it the old fashioned way through diet and exercise.

    I know I can't believe how agonizing that must have been for her. The article said she literally burnt up from the inside. So scary.

    I hope the company gets sued if they aren't being sued already

    I'm suddenly glad I never got around to taking these diet pills from Russia I got from a pal. (I'm leery of taking things without info packets to go with them aka if it doesn't come from the Pharmacy I ain't playing with it..)

    How scary. Poor girl. Our body issues in America are too disturbing.
