Did TRIMSPA Hold Weight For Anna Nicole?

Anna Nicole Smith in front of Trim Spa billboardTRIMSPA, the company pimped by Anna Nicole Smith and credited for her spectacular weight loss, is claiming that their former spokesmodel used human growth hormone only for its anti-aging properties, even though it was described by Chief Medical Examiner Joshua Perper as a "longevity/weight reducing medication."

In a statement to TMZ, TRIMPSA claims they spoke with Howard K. Stern yesterday, who told them, "Smith took human growth hormone since 1999 or 2000," but added that the hormone was used for its anti-aging properties -- not its slimming effects -- which are said to influence the metabolism of proteins, carbs and lipids.

In addition to Anna's fondness for HGH, she also indulged in another weight loss product -- Slim-Fast. The Broward County Medical Examiner stated that they found the diet drink on her nightstand in the Hard Rock Hotel room where she died, and TMZ memorably obtained exclusive photos of several cans of Slim-Fast and a family-sized bottle of methadone in Anna's Bahamian mini-fridge.

121. INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY

Posted at 12:39AM on Mar 29th 2007 by JUSTICE

122. As we all know, Daniel was only in the Bahamas’ just a few hours. When the autopsy was completed, both times, did anyone take any hair follicles from Daniel to confirm if he had ever taken Methadone..... the drug that was found in high doses in his system? Have we any proof that Methadone was ever prescribed to him? I’ve been watching the press very closely and it’s very disturbing that no one has ever mentioned these critical questions? I hope someone will investigate this as I feel it would be a very important factor. We can confirm from the medical staff that Ana was in bed and the only other person mobile and able to bring the Methedone would be HKS.

123. For those of you who do not know Nicorette doesn't just stop the urge to smoke it also stops the urge to eat. It also increases the metabolic rate (the rate in which the body burns fat) some of the side effects inlude nausea and vomitting hmmmm, and nicorette can be highly addicting.

124. oh please, like anyone is going to believe anything you, mrs goen, or your phony husband has to say. do you take us for idiots? look at the poll, 91% believe she lost weight from drugs, NOT TRIMSPA. i don't know where to begin in picking apart all the lies and bull**** he has said on tv. you made a fortune selling phony, useless pills and now you are running scared that the massive class action lawsuit is going to take it all away. i hope you lose every penny you made on your fake a** pills. you never cared about anna, all you cared about was selling the public a fake pill and making money. anna was nothing more than a junkie shooting up any drug she could get her hands on. if you think you can come on here and post some ridiculous comments to try and save your company, you must be on some of the drugs anna was on. it's OVER for TRIMSPA!! no one will ever believe any of your products work, no matter how many fake testimonials you use in your future tv ads. the more you defend your company, the less people believe. as for your pill with hoodia, you can't put enough hoodia in a pill to make it work so stop telling people it was on a tv documentary and that's your proof that it works. stick a fork in it, goen, you are DONE! everyone who bought into your pills, JOIN THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT and bankrupt this snakeoil salesman's company! it couldn't happen to a better person.

125. It is truly disgusting the way society puts the pressure on people to be thin.. look at all the drugs she was taking even when she died that had to do with weight loss.. that is just not healthy...trim spa I am sure is another joke...just like the Dr Phil pill was...and most of the others... I think she was beautiful even as she modeled for Lane Bryant.. beauty comes in all sizes and furthermore should come from within...

126. Hey Monique with all due respect. 1: It was Perper that corrected your husband's erroneous statements not us, not the media. 2: What she used Growth Hormone for is IRRELEVANT. The fact remains that it aides in weight loss. So does Nicorette gum. Many bodybuilders suprisingly smoke because it increases metabolic rate. Nicorette gum does the same and at the same time supresses appetite. I think your husband is probably a good and honest guy who was duped by Stern just like everybody else. Does he really think that Anna looked the same in the clown video as she did in the movie. In the movie she was focused, alert, and acting like a child. In the video her eyes are half shut, she is slurring her speech and confused. Your husband seems like a smart guy. Surely he can see the difference. It is Stern he should be pissed at. FIDUCIARY = as a noun, a person having a duty created by his or her undertaking to act primarily for another's benefit in matters connected with the undertaking. As an adjective, a relationship founded on trust and confidence.

127. Most hollywood types no longer inject HGH but take the "homeopathic" oral spray because you can buy it over the counter legally and it's very gentle on the system. 21stcenturyhgh.com is the most popular but there are over 30 other vendors selling it perfectly legally over the internet. It has to be "homeopathic" to be legal.

128. There will be tons of people that can sue Trim-spa now and Dr Perper is going to be paid to testify in them all. Trim-spa will do a 'bankrupt" soon. Alex is already hiding money i'm sure.

129. How on earth did Coward get HIS stupid name on everything of Anna's????? Her boat, the executor, the baby, trying for the Horizons house, there is a good reason for this. He had other ideas for the furture with Anna and himself. He wanted all for nothing, his past acttions should be telling us all what he did and had in mind. Also the corporation, Hot Smootchie Lips, his name again as the main officer, albeit with Anna on it as well. Why????? His law degree has helped him figure out what name to put where and how it would benefit HIM the most, what a first class ass!!!!! With Anna's mind always out to lunch, this shoud be a slam dunk, and you know, it probably will be>>>>>>but as things go around, he may get his one day i hope!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

37. Years ago when I was talking to someone about Anna's weightloss on Trimspa and asked that person did they think that it really worked that well? She told me that she knew Anna's lawyer (could be howard could be rale could i don't who) she just said lawyer and that Anna actually had medical treatment like a gastric band. Believe me after that I looked at the photos, I looked for a scar. I am not sure if it is true but I find it very hard to believe that she lost all that weight simply using Trimspa. Look at Star Jones.... same deal. Anna was not someone who hit the gym all day long if at all. Maybe that was what the pain medication was for....
Dr. Perper seemed very friendly with the Stern camp in his report yesterday so I bet he wouldn't have revealed anything. It was weird... like the only info they had into what really happened was by that provided by Stern & Co. What about her so-called Doctor? Why would you prescribe these various drugs to Anna knowing she has issues with taking to much because her body has built such a tolerance to them all that she has to take so many of them??????????????? I know, to help her sleep let's given her something that will cause her organs to stop functioning if she takes too much. Please revoke that woman's license!

40. ANS DID NOT use Trimspa for her DRAMATIC transformation!!!!

Besides human growth hormone, she was on taking a high dose of Topamax (used for epilepsy and bi polar disorder) ---which is also being used for obese patients in weight loss studies, and the weight loss result from this medication is amazing--- don't forget the extreme lipo procedure/procedures. You don't lose 80 pounds in a rather quick fashion and end up with the result of no "left overs" so to speak.... there was definitely some surgical help added to get the end result. So, Trimspa obvioiusly knew that, they just never thought the public would ever get to know it.... but then there was an Autopsy.

THE MEDICATION IS NEVER GIVEN AS A DIETARY SUPPLEMENT. IN FACT, IT IS ONLY GIVEN TO EXTREME CASES OF DEPRESSION AND BIPOLAR......TO SEVERLY DEPRESSED PEOPLE WITH EATTING DISORDERS........DEPRESSED BEING THE KEY WORD.

THIS DRUG HAS HARSH SIDE AFFECTS. YES, YOU LOSE WEIGHT FAST......BUT, YOU'RE BODY PARTS GO TO SLEEP AND YOU GET THE SHAKES.......IT'S NOT A COMFORTABLE DRUG TO TAKE AND IT'S ONLY GIVEN IN EXTREME CASES!

Hey idiot I have won multiple titles and so has my wife STEROID FREE. I am in my 50's and my arms tape 22" and I have benched 640 strict. Anytime you want to come to my gym and show me how to lift LMAO just let me know. You must train at one of those candy ass spa type gyms. Duh, slim fast was on her nightstand and in her fridge. It doesn't take a rocket scientist. I never said weight trainers smoke to prevent hunger moron. I said I met "bodybuilders" that do because it increases metabolic rate. I you look up Nicorette on line you will see that it not only supresses the urge to smoke but also the urge to eat and that it does in fact increase metabolic rate. It's tough to engage in a battle of smarts with an unarmed person. I suppose she wasn't taking HGH either. Oh yeah that's right it was for her skin. Give me a F'in break. "Guess all use" What kind of English is that ?
