Crash dieting may have been the cause of model and journalist Peaches Geldof's sudden death on Monday, April 7.

Geldof, 25, revealed in a December 2011 interview that she sometimes goes "about a month" without eating solid food.

"I do juicing," Geldof told OK! Magazine. "You juice vegetables and then you drink it three times a day. It's gross. I do it usually for about a month. I have no willpower but with the juicing I'm like, 'I have to do it because I have to lose this extra ten pounds.'"

Geldof gave birth to her first son, Astala, four months after those statements were published.

The socialite also spoke about being weight conscious on other occasions.

"Sometimes it's hard," Geldof told The Sun. "If you open any high-fashion magazine, the girls in it are stick-thin and then they've been airbrushed down to the point where it's just ludicrousness. I have days when I wake up and think, 'I'm so fat.'"

In response to Geldof's 2011 statements, a British Dietetic Association spokeswoman issued a warning about crash dieting.

"Peaches joins a long line of celebs who are braindead when it comes to nutrition," Cath Collins told The Sun. ''Surviving on fruit is a very dangerous diet. Rapid dieting like this not only makes you lose m"uscle strength but wastes away your internal organs.

Collins words are even more foreboding in light of Peaches' untimely death.

"It is what kills anorexics," Collins said. "It is a stupid approach and it is irresponsible to promote this sort of disordered eating. Peaches is at high risk of electrolyte abnormalities which could lead to acute cardiac arrest."

A cause of death for Peaches Geldof is pending an autopsy, toxicology report, and full investigation. Officials report that no suicide note or evidence of drugs were found in Geldof's home.

Geldof leaves behind her rocker husband Thomas Cohen, lead singer of punk band S.C.U.M., and two sons, Astala, who will be two-years old this month, and Phaedra, who will turn one this month.
