17-year-old Stacey Irvine of Birmingham, England was rushed to the hospital recently with breathing problems, and doctors found she was suffering from anemia, and had swollen blood vessels in her tongue

--And they think her DIET might have something to do with the problem . . .

--Supposedly she's eaten NOTHING but chicken McNuggets and French fries for 15 YEARS.  That means she NEVER eats fruits and vegetables

--But despite her diet, Stacey isn't overweight.  That's because three meals of nuggets and fries is actually about 500 calories LESS than the recommended daily amount. 

--But she was getting about 30% more fat and 80% more salt than she should have, half the carbohydrates she needed, and one third the Vitamin C. 

--Doctors put her on an urgent intravenous course of nutrients and vitamins.
