Face of Anorexia, Dead at 28



French model Isabelle Caro, pictured above, has died at age 28 due to a lung infection brought on as a result of her battle with anorexia.  The pictures above of Isabelle were part of a campaign to bring awareness to anorexia which were posted around Milan billboards during 2007 fashion week. You may remember the campaign as it drew worldwide attention to both the disease and the modeling industries standards. Most recently she appeared on Jessica Simpson's The Price of Beauty which you can watch in the video posted below. The sad reality is that millions of men and woman suffer from eating disorders brought on by societies views of beauty and we can only hope people start to realize that other peoples views and opinions on how we should look doesn't matter.
