Thousands Of Women Are Trading the Tanning Bed for a Syringe: ‘The Barbie Drug’ Illegal Instant Tan Drug

Okay I love my ladies and I really appreciate the effort that a lot of them put into their appearance but there is a limit. We have heard of women that are addicted to the tanning bed. Knowing that it is detrimental to their health they continue to cook themselves with the harmful rays all for the sake of being tan.

Well move over fake-n-bake, mamma's got a brand new bag. Introducing Melanotan a.k.a. "The Barbie Drug." Thousands of women are rolling up their shirts and injecting themselves in the abdomen all for the sake of a glowing tan despite the alarming risks.

Melanotan was originally developed in America in the Eighties - and is a synthetic version of a natural hormone that stimulates the skin to produce more melanin. This forced production gives the skin a deep, dark and even color.

One of the main concerns among health professionals is that the main ingredient activates melanocytes in the skin. These are the cells that become cancerous in malignant melanoma, so doctors fear users could in fact bring on skin cancer in the long term.

I know that now a days everything seems to cause cancer but try these short term side effects on: depression, suppressed appetite, nausea, high blood pressure, facial flushing and panic attacks.

There is a Version two of the drug that can be bought on the internet called simply "Melanotan II" but there is no guarantee just what exactly you are getting.

BEWARE LADIES this is not a joke or a drug that should be fooled with. Google "melanotan overdoses"  images and see what this drug is doing to women.
