Weight Loss Medication -- Not TRIMSPA -- Found in Anna

Anna Nicole SmithAmong the list of drugs Anna Nicole Smith took in the days leading up to her death was a growth hormone -- making it the third weight loss product Smith had taken during her reign as TRIMSPA spokesperson.

A press release issued today by Dr. Joshua Perper says that before she flew to the United States from the Bahamas, Anna had taken medications that included "Growth hormone, an alleged 'longevity'/weight reducing medication."

The Broward County Medical Examiner also released a description of the contents of Anna's hotel room at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino, in which Seminole detectives found Slim-Fast on her night table. Days after her death, TMZ obtained exclusive photographs of the inside of Anna Nicole's refrigerator, which contained several cans of the diet drink.

As you may recall, Anna credited TRIMSPA for her incredible weight loss. Now that she's been connected to TWO other weight loss supplements, it's impossible to determine if TRIMSPA alone was responsible for Anna's rapid shrinking.

The Medical Examiner's office ruled today that Anna Nicole's death was ruled an "accidental overdose."

Calls to TRIMSPA were not immediately returned.

62. She also had Klonopin 'on board', which, if you look it up, has a secondary effect/use, an off-label use - Weight Loss.

Anna Nicole Smith - Dead at the age of 39.

65. Human growth hormone has many uses not just as a weight loss supplement. It is the drug the Sly Stallone got into trouble bringing into Australia. It's typical use is to build up lean muscle mass and some people feel that it impedes aging by supporting the growth of internal cellular structure.

SlimFast is not a weight loss supplement. It is a meal replacement drink. You can take TrimSpa and not be hungry so just a drink will do. My MD says that TrimSpa does aid in weight loss and he recommends it for those who need to lose weight along with a sensible diet and exercise. The Hoodia ingredient has been covered in stories on CBS and CNN regarding its effectiveness.

Why do you have to beat everyone around Anna Nicole Smith into the ground?

66. from PJ Sun - While HKS may not have administered an overdose directly to Anna, he certainly helped supply her with excessive drugs and it was obvious she was using them. The psychiatrist thatt had been with her, Moe and his wife the nurse, and HKS should all be realizing that their lack of intervention contributed to her death. Likely she could have been saved if she had been given the correct medical treatment. Yes, I am aware she said she did not want to go to a hospital but it certainly would have been possible to have have an unconscious ANS taken to the ER. It is likely they did not want to go against her because they worried for their jobs if she came out of her situation and got angry over them doing that. But when a person's life is at stake that should be the priority - not a job! I would be that if Vergie had been there and seen her daughter she would have done whatever she had to do to get the proper help for her daughter - period. ANS took the drugs so she is responsible yet the others are also by OMISSION.

Who do you think is paying all of Howard's bills? Is it his mommy and daddy, or is Anna STILL paying his way? He makes me sick to my stomach! Thanks to Trimspa I still have one, dammit!

73. I still believe it was smartly planned murder by feeding her drugs slowly by the people around her.
It's called slowly killing.

74. I thought HGH was illegal? If it is not illegal than what possible medical condition would she have had to take that?

75. Is already proven Anna was taking more than Trimspa to lose weight. They found someone willing to use the publicity for her own use and HKS. He knew all about this and No Anna did not love him. She was desperate for a daddy to make her move in Bahamas legal. She wanted a wealthy man to be the father so they would get the home and child support.
Yes, Howard access Anna's computer and used it under anna's name even I think if the e-mails were sent he drugged her enough for her to be willing. Or he had a Body Guard, Nanny, Nurse or friend send them from her computer. Anna had no privacy. Everyone had access to her daily life, belongings, especially HKS. He has no right to be angry and threaten the media, Lawyers etc, to get even. He helped her die and he knows it. If anyone cowers down to him they are just as bad as he is. He is only playing out his plan to scare everyone then comeback with lawsuits just like Anna, just to stay in the news and use the TV tabloids to help him gain popularity. Look people he ran Anna's life and career, thats why it was so negitive. So he will continue fighting for her cash flo....We all new she died of drugs. I'm appaled that noone is paying for her death. She depended on these people to take care of her.
Trimspa needs to work on the product and find a real spokesperson.
Bless Dannielynn that Justice is served.
