A talented, troubled star dies and this is all you can think about<\/a>? Give us time to grieve, why don’t you:<\/p>\n

The diet supplement TrimSpa remains on the shelves of Staten Island drugstores and sales of the weight-loss product do not seem to have been affected by the death yesterday of its spokeswoman Anna Nicole Smith.<\/p>\n

“(Customers) are pretty much still buying that and other fitness supplements we have,” said Dave Williams, assistant manager at Walgreen’s Drug Store in Graniteville.<\/p>\n

. . .<\/p>\n

At Duane Reed in New Springville, night shift manager Keith Washington that store hadn’t pulled the product, but he was waiting to hear something from corporate headquarters, since individual stores cannot act on their own.<\/p>\n

Washington added it’s possible Ms. Smith’s death could affect product sales.<\/p>\n

“I heard somebody say, ‘Oh, TrimSpa — don’t buy that, that’s the stuff she (Ms. Smith) died from.'”<\/p>\n

The cause of Ms. Smith’s death remains under investigation. Investigators have not announced any direct correlation with TrimSpa.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
