Karolina, who had long struggled with anorexia, had recently adopted a fruitarian diet, an extreme vegan diet consisting mainly of fruit, sometimes supplemented with nuts and seeds. At the time of her death, she reportedly weighed just three-and-a-half stone (49lbs).

Experts have stressed the dangers of such a restrictive regimen. Dietitian Melainie Rogers told The Cut: “You’re not getting sufficient protein or fats or omega-3s. The body is essentially running on empty.”

Registered dietitian Kate Patton of the Cleveland Clinic added that fruitarianism is “not usually recommended” due to the “big risk of malnourishment.” While fruit can be part of a balanced diet, she explained, it should make up no more than 25 to 30 percent of daily intake.
