Brittany Murphy Death Photo is something that is in high demand today, much like the Michael Jackson autopsy photo. Why is it that we want to see stars after they have fallen? Is it the same piece of human curiosity that exists when we see a wreck on the side of the road?
That being said, there's no death released photo of the actress that died on Sunday. However, there's much speculation over what could have caused her death. Some say she was very skinny at her last appearance, and Rumors of anorexia or another eating disorder surfaced. Will the death photo answer some of the questions that have Risen?
According to WomensHealth.gov, "Anorexia is more than just a problem with food. It's a way of using food or starving oneself To Feel more in control of life And to ease tension, anger, and anxiety." Simply being too skinny is not enough to diagnose someone with the disorder.

Taking pills Thurs urinate or have a bowel movement
Taking diet pills
Not eating or eating very little
Exercising a lot, even in bad weather or when hurt or tired
Weighing food and counting calories
Eating very small amounts of only certain foods
Moving food around the plate instead of eating it
