Anorexic YouTuber Eugenia Cooney, 29, prompts wave of serious health concerns after showing off her TINY frame in new Instagram posts – as critics call for her to be BANNED from the app for ‘promoting self injury’

Anorexic YouTube star Eugenia Cooney has sparked shocked reactions after she shared new images and videos of her wafer-thin frame on Instagram.

Born in Massachusetts, the 29-year-old vlogger first caused a wave of upset in 2013 when she began posting clips of her physique to the platform, where she built a loyal fan base with her beauty tutorials.

And since then, she’s been the center of much controversy recently reignited after the star shared a series of Instagram posts from her recent outing.

Many of her 682,000 followers are now urging others to report Eugenia’s content in an effort to have it removed from the site “for the sake of young women and men.”

In her latest social media video, Eugenia can be seen in an ensemble consisting of a long-sleeved sweater, studded shorts, thigh-high socks and embellished boots.

The social media star, who completed the look with a pink metallic-effect bag, sauntered toward the camera before occasionally stopping when she appeared to be reaching for the railing.

In another post, this time consisting of one image, she once again opted for an all-black outfit as she showed off her side profile to pose with her hand on her hip.

She uploaded the photo along with a caption that read “here another day and then go back” – but she didn’t mention where she’s been.

But it wasn’t the holiday that other social media users commented on — and instead focused on Eugenia’s thin body and its potential impact on other young viewers.

One user wrote: “At this time there is no more help for this girl. In the interest of young women (and men), please report these messages on this app for which this creates an unsafe place.’

Another added: “What I don’t understand is why they don’t ban her.”

And a third said, “Instagram is once again letting posts like this impact our kids… very, very disturbing.”

Eugenia’s followers first begged her for help in 2016 and even started a petition to have her banned from YouTube, claiming she was promoting anorexia.

At the time, she released a statement saying, “Some people say I’m a bad influence on girls. I just want you guys to know that I seriously never tried to be a bad influence on YouTube or bad influence anyone. I would never want to do that.

“I’ve never told anyone to like losing weight, or to like changing their appearance, or to look like me.”

More than 18,000 people signed a Change.org petition calling for her to be temporarily banned from YouTube and to seek medical attention.

“Eugenia Cooney has a serious medical condition and needs to get help. She has influenced her viewers by being severely underweight,” the newspaper said.

“She may not intentionally influence her viewers, but showing 50 percent of her body in videos and photos doesn’t help girls with anorexia or an eating disorder,” said administrator Lynn Cloud.

Among those who signed the petition was one person who claimed their cousin starved himself to be more like the vlogger.

My little niece lost 17 pounds because she wanted to look like Eugenia. She is now receiving care. She’s only twelve years old.’

The petition appears to have since been removed from Change.org.

In 2019, Eugenia took a break from social media and sought treatment, but when she returned to social media, viewers pointed out that she was still not feeling well.

Symptoms include extreme weight loss or lack of expected developmental weight gain, lean appearance, abnormal blood count, fatigue, insomnia, dizziness, thin or breaking hair, lack of menstruation, constipation and abdominal pain, low blood pressure, cold intolerance, dehydration and more.

The condition is more common in women and girls and although the exact cause is unknown, in many cases it is due to environmental factors as thinness is promoted within society.

Effects of the eating disorder include muscle loss, heart problems, kidney problems, constipation, bloating, nausea, bone loss, and anemia.

According to Center for Discoveryat least 30 million people suffer from an eating disorder.

Anorexia is the most common chronic illness in adolescent women and has a higher risk of death than other eating disorders.
