Doctors say that 18 year old Georgi Readman is extremely malnourished and has the health of an 80 year old. Why? might you ask. Well, Georgi has consumed ONLY Ramen Noodles for the past 13 years of her life, apparently hating fruits and vegetables. One physician even states that "a diet of instant noodles has likely wreaked incredible amounts of havoc on her organs. The body—especially one that's still developing—needs protein, minerals, and nutrients to grow; that's just basic common sense. Without it, this girl has probably suffered stunted growth and IQ, osteoporosis, heart and kidney damage, and high blood pressure. Her lifespan has likely been shortened as well."
Kids would try to live off of candy and chocolate milk if parents let them, but that's only if parents let them. Parents are responsible for what their children eat during adolescence to avoid these dangerous eating patterns. These parents are unknowingly killng their child by letting her eat what she wants.
