Michael Hobbs: Fan fan was a combination of diet drugs that were prescribed by a doctor. He says he got put on it for three years while in high school, which is not a high point in critical thinking about values around appearance. "Fan fan" sounds like the name of a zoo animal or something. Everyone I've told about this has no idea what it is. It was a huge force in my life."
Fen-Phen & Redux were "the next miracle drugs" in the '90s, claiming to help people lose dramatic amounts of weight in just three months. But within a few short years, they'd been pulled from the market. They were just too effective! (Just kidding, they killed some people.)
