Greenwich Police Sergeant Brent Reeves told the publication that the concerned callers wanted to make sure she was doing well and was not being coerced by her mother into giving substance and maintaining her appearance.
However, Reeves insists this was not true and says he had known the vlogger for more than ten years and had a good relationship with her.
According to the sergeant, the pair had a code to indicate if Eugenia needed help, which revealed that she had placed an object in her videos so he knew everything was okay.
If the object wasn’t there, the police officer said he would know she needed help.
The sergeant added that she had always had a thin build and that she was of sound mind when he spoke to her.
He reportedly added that they couldn’t really get her to eat anymore if she was at the size that made her comfortable.
Reeves also told the outlet that the YouTuber did eat and ‘especially likes’ chicken sandwiches.
DailyMail.com has contacted Greenwich Police for comment.

Fans have been urging her to get help for years, with many criticizing the beauty vlogger for appearing to mock people’s concerns about her thin appearance.
Among her recent videos, fans have condemned her for continuing to post, with many accusing her of celebrating her emaciated body and mocking concerns about her health.
βI’m done,β one user declared. ‘There are people who die and have no choice. You choose to be this way. I wish you the best, but this is annoying.β
“It’s disgusting that she knows what she’s doing and is almost joking about it,” another agreed.
‘This isn’t funny. It’s an absolute travesty, and pro-ana to the extreme. How you are even allowed to post this content is beyond me. You don’t care,β a third person stated.
Eugenia first caused an upset in 2013 when she started posting clips of her physique to the platform, where she built a loyal fanbase with her beauty tutorials.
Eugenia’s followers first begged her for help in 2016 and even started a petition to ban her from YouTube, claiming she was promoting anorexia.
At the time, she released a statement saying, βSome people say I’m a bad influence on girls. I just want you guys to know that I have seriously never tried to be a bad influence on YouTube or influence anyone badly. I would never want to do that.
“I’ve never told anyone that they have to like losing weight, or that they have to like changing their appearance, or that they have to look like me.”
More than 18,000 people signed a petition on Change.org calling for her to be temporarily banned from YouTube and to seek medical help.
‘Eugenia Cooney has a serious medical condition and needs to seek help. She has influenced her viewers by being severely underweight,β the newspaper said.
“She may not be intentionally influencing her viewers, but showing 50 percent of her body in videos and photos does not help girls with anorexia or eating disorders,” administrator Lynn Cloud said.
