Madhouse showbiz impresario Jeff Beacher appeared live in New York on FOX TV’s Mike and Juliette morning show yesterday (TUES) and talked about his recent near-death experience.

Jeff admits that he took a daily cocktail of dangerous steroids and other prescription medications, for almost a year, in order to try to lose weight.

“It nearly killed me”! he said. “Hundreds of thousands of people throughout the country have had similar terrifying experiences dealing with doctors who promise them quick fixes for weight related problems, but never telling them they are putting their lives and well being in danger. I am going to go in front of a US Senate Committee to testify against doctors prescribing and people using and abusing Human Growth Hormones and other drugs like the ones I was on.

“My liver stopped functioning and I was nearly dead.” Jeff has agreed to give Luxe Life a full interview upon his return to Vegas about his frightening experience and emergency hospitalization.
