Going to show that celebrities can rarely do anything to stop the rumor mill from turning, reports are again starting to gain momentum as regards Lindsay Lohan’s worryingly thin frame. Not only is the star not eating properly, if anything at all, but she’s also overdosing on Adderall to keep this skinny, unnamed sources are telling Us Magazine.

Lindsay is reportedly on an all-liquid diet, which is meant to ensure that she stays this frail for a purpose known only to her so far. Eating close to nothing, except for a candy bar now and then, and drinking plenty of Red Bull and chain smoking, the actress is said to have reached a bodily frame reminiscent of concentration camps, as health experts were telling the media not long ago. Yet, this is not all that Lindsay does to make sure the weight stays off, the aforementioned mag claims.

According to Us and sources close to Lohan, the freckled star, who has ADD and is taking Adderall to keep the condition in check, is taking more medication than her doctor prescribed, just to make sure she won’t gain weight back. If true, this could have disastrous consequences on Lindsay’s health, the mag says, stressing that it is, indeed, true. “She takes Adderall all the time. She gets jittery because of the way the pills affect her. It’s a major reason why she’s losing weight.” the spy reveals for the magazine.

All this while, Lohan insists she’s eating well and feeling fine, albeit not better than ever on account of her recent split from Samantha Ronson. Still, she’s working on a new movie already and she’s trying to get her music career back on track, hopefully with the help of Pharrell, so she’s in a pretty good place, the star tells the media, as quoted by the same publication.

Nevertheless, the skeletal frame Lindsay revealed on a recent shopping trip has not failed to raise concerns among health specialists. “Several medical experts say Lohan looks to weigh between 85 and 95 pounds in these newest photos. A normal woman of that age, at 5-foot-5, should be closer to 130 - 115 if we’re talking ‘Hollywood actress’.” the Sun-Sentinel was writing a short while back, citing health professionals, including doctors and nutritionists, who had not treated or made any contact whatsoever with Lindsay.
