Richard Simmons, the man who made fitness fun with his vibrant personality and unforgettable workout videos, has passed away at the age of 76. The details surrounding his death have been revealed in an autopsy report from the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office, providing some insight into his final moments. According to the report, Simmons had traces of prescription medications commonly used to treat insomnia in his system. These included diphenhydramine, trazodone, and zolpidem. It's important to note that these were medications Simmons had been prescribed, and there was no evidence of any recreational drugs in his system. These findings help paint a picture of his health in the days leading up to his passing. The report also highlighted that Simmons was dealing with arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease, a condition that affects the arteries and can lead to heart complications. On August 13, just a day after celebrating his 76th birthday, Simmons was found unresponsive in his home by his longtime housekeeper. The cause of death was determined to be the result of "sequelae of blunt force traumatic injuries" due to a fall, with heart disease contributing to the tragic outcome. The Medical Examiner ruled the death as an accident. In the days before his passing, Simmons experienced a fall but chose not to seek immediate medical attention, preferring instead to spend his birthday at home. He reportedly became dizzy after using the bathroom and collapsed, with his caretaker helping him back to bed. Tragically, the next morning, he was found unresponsive. Simmons had always been open about his health struggles, and just a few months before his death, he shared with fans that he had been diagnosed with skin cancer. Despite these challenges, he remained positive, celebrating his birthday by expressing gratitude for another year of life and continuing his mission of helping others. His family has expressed their deep appreciation for the outpouring of love and support they've received during this difficult time. A spokesperson for the family emphasized that the toxicology report was clear of any substances other than his prescribed medications, underscoring that his death was a heartbreaking accident. Richard Simmons was more than just a fitness guru; he was a beacon of positivity and resilience. Even in his final days, he was focused on helping others and living his life to the fullest. His legacy will continue to inspire those who seek to live healthier, happier lives. As we remember Richard Simmons, let's honor his spirit by embracing the energy and joy he brought to the world.
