What Is a Pumping Party: Deaths, Safety, Dangers, and Side Effects

What is a pumping party? Is it safe or is it dangerous? Why are some people attending pumping parties? Are there any benefits to undergoing this thing? Well, you and I have questions about pumping parties and we’re lucky because Dr. Paul Nassif of the TV show Botched has the answers for us.

Here’s what he says about what pumping parties are during an interview with the Cosmopolitan Magazine:

A pumping party is an underground party where people get injections of black market product, whether it’s some weird filler or non-medical grade silicone or even some type of kitchen oil or food product. Even caulking used for the sink or bathtub sometimes. The men and women doing the procedures are not professionals, and they’re often not physicians, but they’re promising things, saying, “Oh, I know what I’m doing, I can get you a good result.” But there are people in jail who have killed people — not immediately, but as a result of injecting these terrible fillers.

Is McDonald’s Fruitizz Healthy or Calorie-Ridden?

Is Fruitizz a healthier alternative to Coke or Pepsi? Or is it the same-old same-old calorie-ridden drink that will make your kids fat?

Listening to the sales pitch of McDonald’s execs about Fruitizz would make you think that the world’s biggest fast food chain has finally found an answer to criticisms that it is promoting unhealthy eating. However, critics argue that Fruitizz actually contains 200 calories and 49 grams of sugar and that a large drink of the supposed healthy alternative “has more sugar than a can of Fanta”. According to The Sun, 45 grams is equivalent to 12 teaspoons of sugar so that’s really a lot, no? Can you imagine yourself putting 12 teaspoons of sugar in your cup of coffee or tea?

But what are the ingredients of Fruitizz anyway? McDonalds has not released a detailed list of ingredients for its supposedly “healthy” drink but news reports state that it is “a blend of apple, grape and raspberries topped with sparkling water”.
