Chilling final post of vegan influencer Zhanna Samsonova who 'starved to death'
Zhanna Samsonova, 39, died on July 21 while in intensive care at a hospital in Malaysia.
Her official cause of death has not been declared, but her mother is reported to have said she succumbed to a ‘cholera-like infection’ made worse by her restrictive diet. Ms Samsonova had shared a selfie to her Instagram stories just days earlier, with a haunting message saying: "Life is meaningless but worth living provided you recognise it's meaningless."
Her extreme diet consisted predominantly of raw fruit and vegetable juices, which left her struggling to perform simple tasks such as climbing a set of stairs. Friends claimed that she hadn’t drunk water for more than six years before her death, as she replaced it with fruit and vegetable juices.
