Chicken nugget diet killing UK teen?

Doctors are warning a British teen that if she doesn't change her diet, she may die.

The UK's Daily Mail reports that 17-year-old Stacey Irvine says she began eating chicken nuggets when she was a toddler and has never tasted fresh fruits or vegetables.

Irvine had to be taken to the hospital this week when she collapsed after struggling to breathe.

Doctors said her body was so deficient in vitamins and nutrients that she had to be injected with them, the Daily Mail reports.

Irvine said she varies her diet occasionally with toast for breakfast.

She said McDonald's chicken nuggets are her favorite, but she also likes KFC and supermarket brands.

Her mother said she's at a loss about what to do to change Stacey's diet. She said she's even tried depriving her of food to try to get her to eat anything else, according to the report.

One less serious consequence of her addiction is that she is struggling to store all the free toys that come with the fast food meals.
