A mother of two who takes 100 selfies a day has admitted that she ignores health risks and injects herself with human growth hormone to stay young.

Even though, the 29-year-old mom admits that her selfie obsession has put her health in danger, she said that she won’t stop.

Speaking on Channel 5’s “Body Freaks: Make Me a Perfect 10,” Jacqui Ryland, from Worcester, England, said: “Every morning I inject growth hormone. The side effects mean your heart can grow, which is dangerous.

“It makes your skin look better, makes you look younger and your nails and hairs grow and shed fat.

“The side effects are that your heart can grow … and if you have a cancerous cell in your body, you are going to multiply that cell at a really quick rate. Is it addictive? Yes, because the results you get are addictive.

“If I stop taking it, after the two weeks when it’s leaving your body, you put weight on easier, you feel more tired and you feel less positive and more depressed.
“I have been told it is crazy and a massive risk. But if someone tells me not to do something, nine out of 10 times I will go and do it.”

She added: “It’s an addiction. I don’t think I’ll ever stop. Until I’m dead. Then I’ve got no choice.”

Ryland takes over 100 selfies a day and now has 100,000 followers on Snapchat and 94,000 on Instagram.

As she claims, her selfie obsession has earned her a fortune as strangers shower her with gifts including widescreen TVs, a MacBook and even a $7,300 Rolex watch.

She said: “My boobs have got me noticed, there is not a day that goes by on the internet when someone doesn’t mention my boobs.

“I have a wishlist that I publish on social media and the people just buy things and send them to me. The majority of the time I have no clue who sent it.

“My widescreen TV just turned up. The MacBook, which was about $2,200, tablets, shoes, handbags, Louis Vuitton sunglasses, then really expensive items like a Cartier bracelet.”
