Biggest Loser trainer Jillian Michaels, who is mainly known for screaming and berating the overweight contestants on the show, has been caught breaking the rules of the game by giving her team members caffeine pills without permission in an attempt to help them lose weight quicker.
On this week’s episode of the Biggest Loser, Jillian Michaels was found to be giving her team caffeine pills without having the permission of the show’s doctors. This was a blatant breaking of the rules of the game show, according to The Daily Mail. When questioned by the show’s host Allison Sweeney, Jillian Michaels stated that she felt that caffeine supplement s were healthier then drinking a lot of caffeine. Not sure if she understands why this is a problem, but she also asked that her team not be penalized for her actions. But The Los Angeles Times reports, her team did receive a four pound penalty for the act.
Jillian Michaels is no stranger to controversy. She has been accused of peddling ineffective and dangerous pills to consumers in the past.
