Eighties pop sensation Debbie Gibson has credited her healthy diet with helping her ditch her anti-anxiety medication.
The Shake Your Love hitmaker admits she was feeling unwell before she started using her boyfriend Dr. Rutledge Taylor's Better Than Lipo diet in 2009.
She now believes changing her eating habits enabled her to wean herself off anti-anxiety medication Prozac and Xanax.
Gibson tells Usmagazine.com, "I was constantly going to the doctor. I finally realised my food choices were affecting my health.
"You become a scientist about your own body, to find out what your tolerances are, so you don't wake up one day and go, 'Why do I feel underwater today? What did I eat?'
"I'm off medications now - all by becoming aware of how my food choices were affecting my well being."
