Jordan Matechuk described his shame for arrest linked with steroid use

Jordan Matechuk, a Canadian football player was busted by the US Customs and Border Patrol (CBP). He was caught having over 540 pills of oral steroids and over 260 ml of injectable steroids, when he was driving to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats training camp. The football player confirmed that his depression was responsible for the decision to get and apply anabolic steroids.
The football player noted that he used anabolic steroids and marijuana in order to be able to get rid of his depression. He claimed that earlier he had used anti-depressant preparations. Discontinuing administering anti-depressant medications probably led to usage of steroids.
Jordan Matechuk said that he had depression. He started to utilize steroids and marijuana in order to feel better. He admitted that he was responsible for this condition. He wouldn’t have stopped utilizing  anti-depressant drugs. But he stopped using them. This factor led to usage of steroids.
The football player Jordan Matechuk pleaded guilty to possession of steroids and marijuana.
Although he faced up to 2 years in prison, he was sentenced to 90 years in jail. But Jordan Matechuk was released after he served just 60 days.
Jordan Matechuk reported that there were several other circumstances but he decided to keep them out of public knowledge.
The Canadian Football League gave him the second possibility to play football professionally.
He wrote a letter and sent it to each member of the team. He wrote about his shame for his arrest resulted from possession and usage of steroids. The Hamilton Tiger-Cats didn’t desire to receive the steroid user back to the team.
But the Winnipeg Blue Bombers decided to give him the second chance. Thus, he was happily accepted by this team.

Bodybuilder that imported over 3 kg of testosterone powder avoided imprisonment

Brenton Dowell, a bodybuilder from Australia, was caught possessing and importing significant quantities of anabolic steroids in March 2011. It was determined that these steroids could be sufficient to be applied for over 60 years by one consumer. Numerous individuals thought that this bodybuilder would be sentenced to prison. But Brenton Dowell escaped from imprisonment successfully.
The Australian Customs and Border Protection Service noted that Brenton Dowell had attempted to smuggle over 3, 000 g of testosterone powder. The packages with the raw steroid powder were mailed in September, October and November 2011. They were directed to 3 various places: to Dowell’s home, to his father and his stepfather.
Actually, such large quantities of raw powder could be bought just for manufacture of anabolic steroids by underground labs for selling them on the black market. 3, 000 g of raw testosterone powder could be utilized for getting of 1500 10-ml vials with ready medicines.
Len Hartnett, the defense attorney for Brenton Dowell, argued that the steroid powder had been bought for his client’s personal intake. He noted that Dowell’s usage of steroids was a response to bullying attacks that he received, when he was an overweight boy. So, according to the defense attorney Len Hartnett, Brenton Dowell became addicted to bodybuilding and began to take steroids because he was an overweight child.
The judge Graeme Hicks was influenced by words of the defense attorney that presented experiences of Brenton Dowell in his childhood. The judge Graeme Hicks noticed that it could be concluded that Dowell had become obsessed by bodybuilding.
So, the judge believed the arguments of the defense attorney. Based on the descriptions and arguments of the defense attorney, the judge Graeme Hicks believed that Brenton Dowell had purchased steroids for self-administration and for sales to his friends in order to pay off personal intake.
Brenton Dowell was enforced to pay a fine of 10, 000 dollars and to serve probation of two years.

Pathologist didn’t investigate everything carefully to identify reasons of a teenager’s death correctly

Georgina Howarth, a pathologist, claimed that the death of Mohammed Belkhair, a 19-year guy, had been caused by usage of anabolic steroids. The doctor noted that anabolic steroids had caused heart failure that had resulted in the death.
According to the pathologist Howarth, if this young guy had not taken steroids, he would have lived today. She claimed that administration of steroids was the only cause of the death. The pathologist added that the death of this teenager was a lesson for every person to stay far from such medications.
The sister of Mohammed Belkhair found him vomiting in his bedroom on May, 2011. The teenager acknowledged that he had taken steroids. The death occurred at the same day. It was reported that steroids had been found in his system.
According to some articles, DHEA and Tamoxifen were two steroids that were found in the system of the teenager. DHEA is sold overall in Britain and in the USA.
But actually, the news is misleading. Tamoxifen is not included in anabolic steroids. This preparation has been originally elaborated to treat persons who have breast cancer. It has become widespread among sportspeople and bodybuilders that use steroids due to its capacity to prevent aromatization of other medications.
It seems to be strange but nothing was mentioned about arrest of Mohammed Belkhair. This factor might contribute in his death. This boy was arrested on the night before his death by police officials. 4 different anabolic steroids were found in the room of this person. But the names of the steroids were not identified.
However the police encounter and arrest occurred certain hours before the death of Mohammed Belkhair, the pathologist Georgina Howarth didn’t investigate these factors. Furthermore, she didn’t provide any explanation about this condition. Police released nothing as well.
Since it was noticed that Mohammed Belkhair had bought steroids via internet, the news related to dangers of getting steroids online were spread in the country. Thus, it turned out to be convenient for altering the laws in order to make purchases of steroids online illegal in Britain. The British government intends to make personal importation of steroids per mail and per internet criminal. It will be in near future. Although it is believed that these laws will be enacted before the Olympics, they are not still enacted.

Any Olympic athlete that arrives to London may possess steroids for self-administration

Officers of the British government will be not able to stop athletes importing steroids to the UK, when they come to take part in the 2012 Olympics. Although usage of steroids is forbidden in sports, self-administration of these preparations is not criminal in the UK. Just distribution of steroids is considered to be illegal in this country. So, if one wants to import quantity of anabolic steroids which is obviously large, he/she will not be permitted to do it.
Before Olympics took place in Australia, Canada and China, governments of these countries modified legislation connected with import and application of steroids at least temporally. But the British government refuses to modify steroid legislation for the 2012 Olympics.
Ironically, although the British government refuses to make personal administration of steroids illegal, Britain athletes are banned for lifetime, if they take anabolic steroids. When it comes to the WADA Code, sportspersons that use forbidden products are banned for two years.
Hugh Robertson, the Olympic minister, confirms that it is necessary to have a universal policy linked with sentencing. He insists on at least four years or even longer.  Although this minister is supported by the British Olympic Association, the UK Anti-Doping Agency doesn’t agree with such harsh sanction. The CEO of the UK Anti-Doping Agency Andi Parkinson thinks that certain sanctions should be milder.
The Olympic minister admits that there are various points of view in sports and it’s not well but he doesn’t ask the CEO of the UKAD to resign.
The spokesperson for Hugh Robertson has stated that any sportsperson can have steroids in his/her luggage, when he/she arrives to London. But the amount of steroids must demonstrate that he/she has them only for self-administration. The spokesperson has noticed that it is not criminal for a sportsperson to administer steroids under laws of the UK but if any athlete is caught using forbidden medicines, he/she will be punished under anti-doping laws.
The UKAD claimed that they would cooperate with border control officers. Information about sportspersons will be used by anti-doping officials.
5, 000 drug test, including 1, 000 blood tests will be conducted by the International Olympic Committee.

While a healthy left ventricle pumps about 55-70 % of the blood which fills the heart, left ventricles of steroid users pump essentially less than it is required

Prolonged administration of anabolic steroids may result in various heart disorders. It enhances risks related to heart failure. These statements have been made due to a study which has been presented in Circulation: Heart Failure, an American Heart Association journal.
Anabolic-androgenic steroids act like the hormone testosterone which occurs naturally and that is responsible for development of male sex features.
The leader of the study Aaron L. Baggish states that in addition to the factor that anabolic steroids are illegal, they are connected with negative effects for health. He notes that it is the first time, when negative influence of long-term application of steroids on heart is clearly recognized.
The study manifested that the left ventricle in users of steroids was essentially weaker during contraction than in those who didn’t administer steroids.
A left ventricle that works properly pumps out 55-70 % of the blood that fills the heart.
 12 consumers of steroids were implicated in the study. It was manifested that the left ventricles of 83 % these steroid users acted incorrectly: they pumped out less than 55 % of the blood.   Among the examined non-users just one person experienced problems connected with the function of the left ventricle.
The study demonstrated that ventricle relaxation among steroid users was reduced by about half. It was 0, 93 among users of steroids; 1, 80 – among non-steroid users. The structure of the left ventricle was similar in both groups: consumers of steroids and non-users.
It was used the technique “Doppler echocardiography” for evaluation of function and structure of the left ventricle. This technique uses ultrasound for creation of moving pictures of the heart and its blood flow.
 The group of steroid users included 12 weightlifters at the age of about 40 that said that they used about 675 mg of steroids per week for 9 years. Another group included weightlifters who didn’t apply steroids. Both groups had the same physical activity and the same risks connected with heart diseases. But they had differences in body mass and muscle size. The users of steroids had more muscular appearance.
However small number of steroid users has been evaluated, the results have manifested that there is a strong link between usage of steroids and heart impairment.
The experts decided to conduct further researches in order to support the findings.
Baggish and his co-investigators believe that people will realize that usage of steroids may cause heart problems and various unexplained heart dysfunctions in young people.

Jay Cutler spent each dollar he got for bodybuilding

Bodybuilding is not included in exciting sports. Any bodybuilder can support this statement. People that are involved in bodybuilding spend much time at gyms, training; they prepare appropriate meal and make uninterrupted researches. What is this work done for? – Only for 30 seconds on stage. Of course, if bodybuilders reach high results, they get awards, fame, and admiration of others. Their photos are posted on covers of fit magazines. They become well-known.
Unluckily, the most of bodybuilders never reach this level because it is required much work and money for this purpose. But any bodybuilder hopes to achieve this level: to be a top bodybuilder, to get money and other awards. If you have any interest to find out what is required for success in bodybuilding, you can look at Jay Cutler and some other persons. You may also find out role of steroids for success in bodybuilding.
Jay Cutler is one of the most well-known bodybuilders in history. In addition to this fact, he has received Mr. Olympia titles 4 times. This person spends much time for sports. He notes that he doesn’t make plans. He eats around the clock. Jay Cutler consumes 4, 000 – 7, 000 calories a day. Chicken breasts are at the center of his much food.
It is interesting to notice that Jay Cutler spends more time for eating than for trainings. He lifts for circa two hours and gets cardio an hour daily. Cutler confirms that his day differs significantly from thoughts of people about it. Those who are not involved in bodybuilding think that bodybuilders train 8 hours per day. They believe that if they administer steroids, they will look like professional bodybuilders.
Jay Cutler claims that steroids are not everything in bodybuilding but they play an essential role in it. He confirms that if anyone wants to reach great success in sports, he/she has to take steroids. Ron Stevens, who is in the sport 15 years, supports the statement of Jay Cutler about steroids. He adds that it is impossible to compete without application of these products. After some shows Ron Stevens made the decision to administer steroids.
Stevens is a dedicated bodybuilder as well. He eats much food that could be enough for a family of five members.
The most of bodybuilders don’t have great supplement contracts. They don’t have enough money to support their efforts and obtain titles of Mr. Olympia.
Actually, the most of serious bodybuilders have regular jobs and hope that they will achieve obvious success one day.
As for Jay Cutler, he had two jobs. This bodybuilder worked and spent every dollar he had for bodybuilding. Finally, he achieved great success. His each effort was paid off.
Thinking over Jay Cutler, any bodybuilder can be encouraged to hope that he will succeed obviously one day. Uncelebrated bodybuilders may dream at least.

Dana White tries to prove that the UFC does more than any other sport organization in the struggle against doping

Dana White, the UFC President, tries to defend UFC efforts against administration of prohibited drugs.  Dana White confirms that the UFC fights seriously to push prohibited drugs out of sports. He confirms that they do more than any other sport organization for this purpose.
Unfortunately, affirmations of Dana White are presented just for public relations purposes. They are completely false. The UFC doesn’t do more than any other sport organization, fighting against usage of banned medicines.
White claims that it is impossible to perform random drug testing in the UFC. He notices that they have 375 sportspersons under contract. Dana White notices that it is impossible to perform random tests because these fighters live everywhere; they travel around the world. Dana White finds it unreal to travel in different countries, looking for these 375 persons, in order to test them continually.
While The UFC President wants to convince others that it is not possible to perform random drug testing of 375 UFC guys, other sport organizations do it with their athletes. They perform random testing with success.
It is not totally clear what happens really. Does Dana White want to mislead public about usage of banned products in the UFC? Or is he ignorant entirely, when it comes to the Code of the World Anti-Doping Agency?
The Chief Executive Officer of the US Anti-Doping Agency claims that the UFC does everything in order to avoid following the laws of the WADA. They have own principles and struggle against the WADA rules. Although the UFC confirms that they try to protect their sports from intake of performance-enhancing drugs by the WADA Code, the reality demonstrates that it is not true. The UFC rules are miserable in comparison with those of the WADA. Be reasonable!

The death of Mike Wallace led to renewal of public interest to the case of Roger Clemens

Mike Wallace, a famous investigative journalist, who was one of the original correspondents of CBS’ 60 Minutes died, when he was 93 years old. This reporter made capturing interviews with world prominent persons. The latest stories were related to the former professional baseball player Roger Clemens and accusations linked with intake of anabolic steroids and HGH by this sportsperson. Mike Wallace’s last appearance on TV was connected with this case.
The interview with Roger Clemens about steroids was presented in January, 2008. Rusty Hardin, the defense attorney for Roger Clemens, arranged the appearing of this former baseball player in the Show 60 Minutes. Roger Clemens had to defense himself against accusations of his former personal coach Brian McNamee. This person accused Roger Clemens in administration of anabolic steroids and HGH. He collaborated with investigators of Mitchell Report, when they tried to find out the extent of steroid use in the Major League Baseball.
Wallace didn’t enforce Clemens to tell that he applied steroids. He just encouraged him to prove to others that he had used neither steroids, nor HGH. Roger Clemens stated that he would be able to pull a tractor with his teeth, if he had utilized steroids.
The interview of Clemens was a calamitous public relations maneuver for Rusty Hardin. It was not a perceptive interview. But it renewed the interest after death of Wallace.
Actually, Wallace presented much more significant interviews during his career. The steroid interview with Roger Clemens was not the most significant. Why did it draw each person’s attention?
Other interviews of Wallace are quite interesting. Wallace interviewed the lawyer of the president Richard Nixon and the assistant to the president for Domestic Affairs John Ehrlichman during the Watergate scandal. Wallace called the Watergate scandal “perjury”. He noted about such methods of Richard Nixon, as thefts, spying, obstruction of justice, etc. The scandal resulted in resignation of the president Richard Nixon.
Wallace arranged also an interview with the Iranian leader Ayatollah Khomeini. The reporter identified him as a “lunatic”. However, he was quoting the president Anwar el-Sadat of Egypt.
Another person who was interviewed by Wallace was the Vice President of Research and Development at a tobacco company. Jeffrey Wigand admitted that executives of the company cheated before the Congress about their knowledge about nature of nicotine.
However these interviews were significant, many persons directed their attention to insignificant interview with Roger Clemens. It may be because while lying of Roger Clemens before the Congress may cause federal struggle against steroids, the war on nicotine will never take place.

A compound that is contained in mustard can help you to stay lean

Some late studies have determined certain positive effects of mustard. Anyone knows that it is an excellent remedy that adds pleasant flavor to food. Furthermore, it has been determined that mustard can help to lose fat and improve physical appearance.
A research connected with mustard has been conducted by Debora Esposito and his colleagues at North Carolina University in Kannapolis (USA). It has been claimed under results of the research that a compound which is called “homobrassinolide” found in mustard and other related herbs is able to increase lean muscle size and energy in mammals.
28-Homobrassinolide is a brassinosteroid. It is a type of steroid which has been found in plants that are included in Brassica family. It has been known that it has capacity to promote growing plants. But nobody has been aware about its function in mammals. The specialists have defined that homobrassinolide is able to cause anabolic effects in mammals. It promotes increasing synthesis of protein, stimulates appetite and increases muscle size through enhancement of number and size of muscle fibers in animals.
Healthy rats have been involved in the research. They have been given oral homobrassinolide during 24 days. Dual-emission x-ray absorptiometry analysis has been used in order to monitor changes in weight, food consumption and composition of rats’ bodies. It has been noted that animals who have been given homobrassinolide have obtained essentially more muscle mass than those that have not been given this compound.
Enhancement of muscle mass indicates about a higher basal metabolic rate. Enhanced BMR is associated with great caloric burning which helps to remain lean.
So, the research has clearly shown that homobrassinolide increases protein synthesis, enhances size and number of muscle fibers that play an important role for increase of endurance.
Specialists suggest that such plants, as mustard, can be applied for more increased brassinosteroid content. It can help to have lean muscle mass, enhance it and prevent certain health problems.
It is supposed that future supplement and medicine industry will introduce preparations which will be useful in case of certain illnesses linked with muscle wasting. Such products can be applied as alternative preparations to synthetic steroids because the first ones will probably have minimal or no adverse results.
Leaves of mustard are low-calorie. They are rich in antioxidants. Leaves of mustard have anti-inflammatory features. Furthermore, they represent an excellent source of iron, magnesium, fiber, selenium and phosphorous.
Mustard may be applied for preparing salads, curds and tempering. It would be useful to take at least one teaspoon of mustard with water or meal in order to get some positive effects.

A steroid ring was busted by the investigation “Operacion Skype”

Mossos d’Esqudra and Spain’s Policia Nacional conducted a steroid investigation that led to arrest of 10 individuals that were involved in a steroid ring. These persons supplied top amateur and professional sportspersons and even Olympic athletes with anabolic steroids, HGH, EPO, CERA and other related medications.  The operation was called “Operacion Skype”. The steroid ring was settled in Barcelona.
The investigation was originally connected with David Garcia Dapena, a professional cyclist, that tested positive for EPO after the 2010 Vuelta a Espana. It was reported that David Garcia Dapena had increased hematocrit levels which indicated about intake of EPO.
Garcia didn’t deny intake of the banned preparation. He collaborated with the police. The cyclist acknowledged that he had bought product with performance-enhancing effects from the health care provider Alberto Beltran Nino.
It was determined that Beltran had been the leader of an organization related to sophisticated doping. This organization supplied cyclists and other sportspeople with banned medications. It was also defined that some athletes that participated in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the 2010 Vuelta a Espana, the 2009 Tour du Portugal and the 2012 Spanish Athletics Championships were included in the group of persons who bought steroids and other prohibited drugs from this doping ring.
It was even earlier supposed that Beltran supplied sportspersons with steroids and other related products and taught them how to avoid detection. He was arrested in Italy after he was caught driving his car which was full of steroids and other related medications.
The Portuguese professional cyclist Nuno Ribeiro accused the doctor Beltran in injecting him with banned medications after he tested positive for CERA in 2009.
Jose Luis Blanco, a sprinter, assisted in the steroid investigation that had been led against Beltran after this sprinter tested positive for EPO at the 2012 Spanish Athletics Championships.
Beltran moved to Bahrain in 2009. Since that time the doctor had no any direct contact with any athlete.
Nevertheless, the police suppose that he has set up a team of intermediaries in different countries. They have bought steroids and other related products and supplied top sportspersons with them.
Beltran was detained in Madrid in March 2012 by police officials. He was caught having AICAR and TB-500.
While no any sportsperson has tested positive for these medicines, it is supposed that certain athletes have planned to utilize these drugs.

Prostitutes from Bangladesh use corticosteroids willingly of by force

Young women in Bangladesh who are involved in prostitution use steroids to gain weight and bulk up. It has been written by Reuters. The article’s headline has the following words: “dark steroid secret”. It is noticed that prostitutes from Bangladesh apply steroids to have better appearance. Of course, the first thoughts that come in mind in this situation are linked with usage of anabolic steroids. But reading the article completely and more attentively, every person can understand that it is written not about anabolic steroids but about corticosteroids.
One of corticosteroids that are available at pharmacies of Bangladesh is known under the trade name Oradexon. It is not required to have a prescription in order to buy this medicine. Its cost is approximately 15 taka that equal to 0, 18 USD dollars. Another name of this preparation is Dexamethasone. It is an anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant product which is indicated for treatment of individuals with various illnesses. This medication is over 25 times more potent that the natural steroid hormone cortisol.
90 % of sex workers at the 15 legal bagnios from Bangladesh take the corticosteroid Oradexon. 90 % equal to 900 young sex workers that administer this medication systematically. They use it willingly or are enforced to do it. Thus, some of them are enforced to use it. But others administer this drug volitionally because it is confirmed that corticosteroids have ability to add strength and improve health.
It may seem to be ironically but sex workers from Bangladesh  that take corticosteroids have the same goals like those that encourage bodybuilders to utilize anabolic steroids. Sex workers administer corticosteroids in order to improve physical appearance, add weight and stimulate appetite.
It is confirmed that Oradexon can give healthy appearance to consumers. It is appreciated by customers. A woman who is involved in prostitution in Bangladesh confirms that customers are seeking healthy ladies. Since she needs money to pay her bills and loans, she needs customers each day. If she doesn’t have any customer a day, she doesn’t have what to eat. Moreover, she put efforts to earn money for her son.
Actually, negative reactions which may appear because of corticosteroids are much more severe than those that can occur due to intake of anabolic steroids. Corticosteroids can suppress immune system, lead to osteoporosis and insulin resistance, enhance appetite essentially, and enhance weight and fat.
Experts try to draw people’s attention to abuse of corticosteroids and potential unwanted reactions of them.

What is it necessary to understand about AndroGel dosage to acquire wanted results?
AndroGel dosage is indicated by physicians who take in consideration following factors: testosterone levels of patients, responses of their systems to application of this preparation, individual conditions and other medications which are applied by patients. It is ordinarily recommended to start with the AndroGel dosage of 5 mg a day. The measure is corrected during the treatment. If serum testosterone levels are essentially low, the dose has to be increased. If the levels are higher than the normal level, the therapy with this preparation must be stopped. The quantity should be altered just by doctors but not by those who use this product.

Denver Broncos’ players provided non-human urine samples for drug testing

The National Football League suspended the linebacker D. J. Williams and Ryan McBean, a defensive lineman, of the team Denver Broncos for violation of steroid policy. These players were banned from 6 games. But they were not suspended for application of steroids. They didn’t test positive for steroids or other controlled substances. They were accused in providing “non-human” urine samples to the officer of drug testing.
D. J. William claimed that he had never tested for any forbidden preparation during eight years of his career. He noticed that he was proud of his records. The football player noticed that he was also proud of his manner in that he conducted himself, being an athlete.
Peter Schaffer, the defensive attorney for McBean, claimed that the NFL had violated rights of the defensive lineman. He mentioned that since McBean had never tested positive for any prohibited drug, the NFL didn’t have any right to suspend him.
Peter Schaffer noted that he intended to make it clear that neither D. J. Williams, nor Ryan McBean tested positive for forbidden medicines.
A lawsuit was filed in Denver County Court against bans of these football players.
D. J. Williams and Ryan McBean affirmed that the drug testing officer had violated some rules connected with the procedure of collecting urine samples.
Schaffer noticed that certain similarities had been between his client and Ryan Braun. Braun won his appeal linked with his suspension from 50 games for application of testosterone. Ryan Braun could prove that Dino Laurenzi, the drug testing officer, violated steroid policy.
As for Laurenzi, he was defended and supported by different anti-doping agencies. The WADA also supported this drug testing officer. It was confirmed that there was the same procedure of collecting and sending urine samples not only for the MLB but also for the WADA.
But as for the drug testing officer that collected samples of Williams and McBean, another attitude was displayed to him. He was fired by the NFL for inappropriate doing his duty.
At the hearing the NFL administrators acknowledged that the drug testing officer violated the rules linked with collection of urine samples.
Nevertheless, the appeal on behalf of the football players was rejected.

Some products which are available as dietary supplements cause significant harm in users

What may be called “a medication”? The FDA notices that a drug represents a substance; it isn’t a supplement. It is utilized for diagnosis, cure, prevention of maladies, for appropriate influence on body’s functions. It is possible to mention that a medication is a medication that has nothing common with politics and great money.
But it is possible certain ambiguity nowadays. A law that has been established in 1994 by Senators Orrin Hatch and Tom Harkin has caused the confusion between dietary supplements and medicines. Thus, mega-billion dollar supplements industry has promoted causing the disorder in clear definitions. Users’ ignorance and some legislative affirmations with doubled sense have played great role in creation of following conception: everything that is sold may be used without dangers.
This incorrect conception led to various serious cases. For example, over a year ago 2 young soldiers of the U. S. Army died as a result of usage of so-called “dietary supplements” Jack3d and OxyElite Pro. The case is still investigated. In fact, it has been determined that those soldiers had administered an amphetamine-like synthetic substance which has been called “dimethylamylamine”. It affected their cardiovascular and nervous systems. Since it has changed function of bodies, it is a medication. However it is a banned compound administered by sportspersons, it is purchasable at the Vitamin Shoppe or GNC.
Health stores offer for sales products that are similar to that compound mentioned above. They are labeled as dietary supplements but it is not true.
Another preparation is DHEA. It represents a steroid which can be converted in consumers’ systems into anabolic steroids or neurohormonal steroids. This aspect influences on physiological functions of body. Is it a dietary supplement really?
Another preparation that is getable as a dietary supplement is RockHard Weekend. It contains various substances. But does anyone know which compounds are contained in the bottle? May anybody be sure that they are safe for intake?
One of people’s mistakes is that they believe the following way: if any product is derived from plants, it is safe for administration. A lot of persons believe that such supplements can’t have negative influence on body’s functions. It is wrong to think this way. There are plants that are toxicant. It is banned to consume them.
Hemlock was the poison which led to Socrates’ death. It was derived from certain herb. Ricin that is considered to be one of the most poisonous compounds on the Earth is derived from a castor been roots. That’s why it is necessary to know what you apply in order to avoid using preparations which contain any poison, regardless they are from herbs or not.
Why are companies allowed to offer for sales medicines as if they were supplements? Dietary supplements don’t pass any FDA control. Here we can say about statements with doubled sense. The Hatch-Harken law allows the supplement industry to elaborate preparations that are labeled as supplements. But are they actually supplements? Several drugs are purchasable, being labeled as supplements. But it is wrong completely. These preparations can be unsafe.
Does anyone believe that anabolic steroids and other related medicines can be labeled as supplements? Do they supplement or treat? A term was elaborated in order to avoid utilizing medical terms. This term is “to support”. What does “to support” mean? Isn’t it a wink to the term “to cure”?
The FDA desires to establish control over supplements. There will be a requirement for all new supplements to be safe.
Pharmaceutical companies spend hundreds millions of dollars in order to define whether new medicines are safe. Some of them fail to be called “safe” due to dangerous unwanted consequences. But as for manufacturers of supplements, they don’t have these problems because there do not have such requirements in supplement industry.
Supplement requirements are connected with money and not with science. Actually, they should have the same regulations like those which are established for pharmaceutical companies.

Why do young athletes take steroids and other related drugs?

Brian McNamee confirms that coaches are the chief persons who induce intake of anabolic steroids. The convicted distributor of steroids confirms that trainers have the most significant influence on decisions of young sportspeople to apply banned products. Their influence is bigger than one of street dealers that offer prohibited medicines for sales, trying to convince young athletes that they can have great success due to intake of these preparations. Brian McNamee supposes that trainers and the society teach young athletes that they should win at any cost. This aspect pressures students that go info sports. It promotes causing their decision to apply steroids and other related medications.
Brian McNamee was invited to share his opinion at the Nassau Counselors Association’s conference. He had a speech  during a presentation which was called “Creating a Safe Environment for Our Student-Athletes”. He received an honorarium of 200 dollars. McNamee presented this sum of money to the Taylor Hooton Foundation.
McNamee is known better as a trainer that has injected Roger Clemens with anabolic steroids and HGH. It was noted that he stored all syringes and vials that were applied for injecting Roger Clemens with steroids during approximately seven years. Brian McNamee supported accusations of federal prosecutors against Clemens.
The testimony of McNamee promoted writing the Mitchell Report on steroids in the Major League Baseball. The Report was worth of 20 million dollars. It was publicized in December 2007. Statements of Brian McNamee and Kirk Radomski represented the base for publishing the report. They provided evidence related to intake of steroids in professional baseball. These persons were enforced to collaborate with investigators of the Mitchell Report. It was their agreement which was achieved because of charges connected with steroids.
The agreement also requires testimony of McNamee as a government witness in the trial of Roger Clemens. He couldn’t pronounce details linked with the case of Roger Clemens during the Nassau Counselors Association. But the time will come, when he reports the story connected with Clemens.
Although it was declared a mistrial in the 1st  trial linked with the case of Roger Clemens, it was scheduled a new trial.

Shaquille O’Neal has said that he is not worried about effects caused by Jose Canseco due to usage of Testosterone Cypionate

It has been recently noticed that Jose Canseco and Shaquille O’Neal have discussed their possibility to fight against each other in a ring of mixed martial arts. O’Neal challenged him last year but Jose Canseco didn’t take him seriously. Only now Jose Canseco changed his attitude.
A lot of persons confirm that Jose Canseco needs money since the Triple-A Quintana Roo Tigres of the Mexican Baseball League has invited him to play professional baseball.
Jose Canseco must submit to a steroid test before starting playing in this team. But as it is known, he administers Testosterone Cypionate and HCG which are indicated by his health care provider for testosterone replacement therapy. However he has justified therapeutic needs for application of these products, he has to obtain certain specified documents to be allowed to play baseball professionally. While his fate connected with playing baseball professionally is not yet clear, he desires to fight against O’Neal in a match.
Shaquille O’Neal has said that he is ready to fight against Jose Canseco. He mentioned that he had challenged Canseco long ago.
Shaquille O’Neal doesn’t trouble that Jose Canseco applies anabolic steroids. He possesses own secret methods and he hopes that he is able to neutralize effects of Jose Canseco that are caused by application of Testosterone Cypionate.
It was scheduled that Jose Canseco would fight against Lenny Dykstra, a former player of the MLB. When this guy played baseball professionally, he also applied anabolic steroids.
Randall Lane notices in his book “The Zeroes: My Misadventures in the Decade Wall Street Went Insane” that Lenny Dykstra has acknowledged that he administered anabolic steroids. Dykstra told Lane that Jose Canseco and he had promoted causing steroid revolution in baseball.
Jeff Scott, a bodybuilder from Florida, confirmed that he supplied Lenny Dykstra with preparations that increase performance at sums of 20, 000 dollars. He also noted that he injected Dykstra with steroids many times.
But the fight between Dykstra and Jose Canseco never happened because Dykstra was charged with thefts, false financial statements and possession of illegal medicines. As a result, he was sentenced to prison.
Shaquille O’Neal offered to fight against Jose Canseco instead of Dykstra. He asked the UFC’s president Dana White to arrange a ring with Jose Canseco. Jose Canseco accepted the challenge of Shaquille O’Neal.

The BOA has laws on steroids which contradict to the Code of the WADA

The British Olympic Association put efforts to justify itself for the aspect that it violates Code of the World Anti-Doping Agency. According to rules of the WADA, punishment for intake of anabolic steroids and other related medications must be the same in the whole  world. The penalty that is indicated for an athlete who has administered prohibited drugs for the first time is sentencing to suspension of 2 years.
But the British Olympic Association claims that such punishment isn’t sufficient. The BOA sentences steroid users for life-time suspensions from participating in the Olympic Games. The WADA notices that this law of the BOA contradicts the WADA Code which is universal.
Lord Moynihan, the chairman of the BOA, hasn’t agreed to change the law. As a result, a hearing has been scheduled to be at a Court of Arbitration for Sports in London.
The athletes who had used prohibited drugs were suspended by the International Olympic Committee from taking part in Olympics under the Osaka Rule.
Lord Moynihan said that the rule of the BOA related to life-time suspensions wouldn’t be cancel, if even the CAS would not support it. The BOA thinks that it has the best laws.
The chairman of the BOA supported statements written by the former British Olympic decathlete Daley Thompson that noticed that British laws connected with usage of banned medicines were superior. He confirmed that they shouldn’t be overthrown by the rest part of the world.
Delay Thompson notes that dopers must be punished harshly. They must be suspended for the whole life. According to his opinion, the BOA shouldn’t agree with the rule of the WADA to sentence dopers only for 2-year bans. He believes that the Britain desires to have the highest sport standards. He notes that if the rest part of the world refuses to have high standards, it doesn’t mean that Britain has to follow their reduced levels.
David Howman, the director general of the WADA, criticizes affirmations proclaimed by Daley, noticing that steroid testing has been only on its early level of development, when he has won his gold medals in Olympics in Moscow and Los Angeles.
Travis Tygart, the CEO of the US Anti-Doping Agency, blames the BOA for its refusal to submit to the rules of the WADA. It seems to be strange that Travis Tygart that usually blames cheaters blames the BOA for the strict law.
Travis Tygart states that since international rules have been once established and all have agreed to them, anybody must follow them.
The British athletes Dwain Chambers and David Millar that have been earlier suspended for usage of forbidden products wait for the decisions related to this issue. They want to know whether they will be allowed to compete at the 2012 London Olympics.
