Body shaping or body building is obsession of our times. This is achieved with over consumption of proteins, steroids and nutritional supplements. The resulting malnutrition manifest as coronary artery disease which further precipitates myocardial infarction in adults below the age of 40 years. A 25-year male patient was referred to emergency department and was diagnosed with MI- STEMI. He complained of chest pain after a treadmill exercise. He was not a habitual drinker and was performing his routine errands. He was consuming typical self-made and suggested nutritional diet along with whey proteins, fat shredder and anabolic steroids. He received stanozolol 2 ml injection, testosterone 1 mg and triiodothyronine 25 mcg., testosterone and Unwarranted consumption of anabolic steroids and testosterone injections coupled with malnutrition precipitated MI-STEMI. He underwent coronary angiography, echocardiography and was diagnosed with MI-STEMI. His echocardiogram showed ST-elevation in Lead I, aVR and V2-V6. His echocardiogram revealed 44% reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction. He was catheterized after loading with Aspirin 75 mg, Clopidogrel 300mg, Rosuvastatin 40 mg. after balloon angiography he further received Eptifibatide 180 mcg/kg followed by 2 mcg/kg/min as maintain ace dose. He was resuscitated with antiplatelets and statins and was discharged after a few days.
