Jordan Matechuk thought that steroids would help him to escape from depression

Jordan Matechuk, a player of the Canadian Football League, 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 coming to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats training camp. The football player affirmed that his depression was responsible for the decision to purchase and utilize anabolic steroids.
The football player said that he administered anabolic steroids and marijuana in order to be capable to get rid of his depression. The football player confirmed that earlier he had administered anti-depressant products. Discontinuing administering anti-depressant remedies probably led to intake of steroids.
The football player noticed that he experienced depression. He began to apply anabolic steroids and marijuana in order to feel better. Matechuk acknowledged that he was responsible for this condition. He wouldn’t have stopped applying anti-depressants. But he discontinued administering them. This factor resulted in administration 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 prison. But Jordan Matechuk was released after he served only 60 days.
Matechuk stated that there were some other circumstances but he decided to keep them confidential.
The Canadian Football League gave him another possibility to play football professionally.
He wrote a letter and sent it to every member of the team. Jordan Matechuk noted about his shame for the arrest related to possession and intake of steroids. The Hamilton Tiger-Cats didn’t desire to receive the consumer of steroids back to the team.
But the Winnipeg Blue Bombers decided to provide him the second chance. Thus, he was happily accepted by this team.

Australian bodybuilder imported illegally over 3, 000 g of testosterone powder

Brenton Dowell, an Australian bodybuilder, was caught possessing and illegally importing large quantities of anabolic steroids in March 2011. It was determined that these steroids could be sufficient to be administered for over sixty years by one user. A lot of people thought that this bodybuilder would be sentenced to imprisonment. But Dowell avoided imprisonment successfully.
The Australian Customs and Border Protection Service claimed that this bodybuilder had attempted to import over 3 kg of testosterone powder. The packages that contained the raw steroid powder were mailed in September, October and November 2011. They were directed to three various places: to Dowell’s home, to his father and his stepfather.
Actually, such large quantities of raw powder could be ordered only for manufacture of anabolic steroids by underground labs in order to sell them on the black market. 3, 000 g of raw steroid powder could be used for preparing of 1500 10-ml vials with ready products.
Len Hartnett, the defense attorney for Brenton Dowell, argued that the testosterone powder had been bought for his client’s personal administration. He noted that Dowell’s use of steroids was caused by bullying attacks which he received, when he was an overweight kid. So, according to Len Harnett, Brenton Dowell became addicted to bodybuilding and began to use steroids because he was an overweight child.
The judge Graeme Hicks was impressed by affirmations of the defense attorney that presented experiences of Dowell in his childhood. He noted that it could be concluded that Dowell had become obsessed by bodybuilding.
Thus, 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 the bodybuilder Brenton Dowell had ordered steroids for self-administration and for sales to his friends in order to pay off personal usage.
Brenton Dowell was sentenced to a fine of 10, 000 dollars and 2-year probation.

Articles present misleading information about steroids and death

The pathologist Georgina Howarth claimed that the death of Mohammed Belkhair, a 19-year boy, had been caused by usage of anabolic steroids. She noted that anabolic steroids had caused heart failure which had resulted in the death.
According to the pathologist Howarth, if this teenager had not administered steroids, he would have lived today. She confirmed that application of steroids was the only cause of the death. Georgina Howarth noticed that the death of this teenager was a lesson for every person to stay far from such products.
The sister of Mohammed Belkhair found him vomiting in his bedroom on May, 2011. The boy acknowledged that he had utilized steroids. He died at the same day. It was reported that steroids had been found in his system.
According to numerous articles, DHEA and Tamoxifen were 2 steroids that were found in the system of the guy. DHEA is sold overall in Britain and in the USA.
But actually, the news is misleading. Tamoxifen is not included in anabolic steroids. It has been initially introduced in order to treat persons that experience breast cancer. It has become popular among sportspeople and bodybuilders that utilize steroids because of its capacity to prevent aromatization of other substances.
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 officers. 4 types of 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 this boy, the doctor Georgina Howarth didn’t investigate these factors. Furthermore, she didn’t provide any explanation about this condition. Police reported nothing too.
Since it was reported that Mohammed Belkhair had ordered steroids per internet, the news connected with risks of getting steroids online were spread in the country. Thus, it turned out to be convenient for changing the laws in order to make purchases of steroids per internet illegal in Britain. The British government wants to make personal import of steroids per mail and per internet illegal. It will be in near future. However it is believed that these laws will be enacted before the Olympics, they are not still enacted.

Different opinions of sport officials about sentences of athletes that are caught taking steroids

Officers of the UK will be not able to stop athletes importing steroids to the UK, when they come to take part in the 2012 Summer Olympics. Although administration of steroids is banned in sports, personal usage of these medicines is not illegal in the UK. Just distribution of steroids is claimed to be criminal in this country. Thus, if someone attempts to import amount of anabolic steroids that is significantly large, he/she will not be allowed to do it.
Before Olympic Games took place in Australia, Canada and China, governments of these countries modified legislation related to import and usage of steroids at least temporally. But the British government refuses to modify steroid laws for the 2012 Olympics.
Ironically, although the British government doesn’t want to make personal usage of steroids criminal, Britain sportspersons are banned for lifetime, if they take anabolic steroids. When it comes to the WADA Code, sportspeople who take banned preparations are banned for 2 years.
The Olympic minister Hugh Robertson confirms that it is important to have a universal law related to sentencing. This minister insists on at least four years or even longer.  While 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 considers that several sanctions must be softened.
Hugh Robertson admits that there are different points of view in sports and it’s not well but he doesn’t ask the CEO of the UKAD to resign.
The spokesman for the minister has announced that any sportsperson can have steroids in his/her luggage, when he/she arrives to London. But the amount of steroids must confirm that he/she possesses them just for personal intake. The spokesperson has noted that it is not criminal for a sportsperson to apply steroids under laws of the UK but if any athlete is caught taking prohibited medications, he/she will be punished under anti-doping laws.
The UKAD stated that they would collaborate with border control officers. Information about athletes will be utilized by anti-doping officers.
5, 000 drug tests will be conducted by the International Olympic Committee. 1, 000 of these tests will be blood tests.

Consumers of steroids have increased risks related to serious heart problems

Prolonged administration of anabolic steroids can result in various heart troubles. It increases risks connected with heart failure. These statements have been noted in a research that has been written in Circulation: Heart Failure, an American Heart Association journal.
Anabolic-androgenic steroids work like testosterone that occurs naturally and which is responsible for development of male sex characteristics.
The leader of the research Aaron L. Baggish says that in addition to the fact that anabolic steroids are illegal, they are connected with undesirable results for health. He notices that it is the first time, when negative effect of long-term administration of steroids on heart is clearly recognized.
The study demonstrated that the left ventricle in users of steroids was substantially weaker during contraction than in those who didn’t administer steroids.
A left ventricle which works properly pumps out 55-70 % of the blood that fills the heart.
 12 steroid users were enrolled in the study. It was manifested that the left ventricles of 83 % these steroid users worked incorrectly: they pumped out less than 55 % of the blood.   Among the examined non-users just one person had problems linked with the function of the left ventricle.
The study manifested that ventricle relaxation among users of steroids was reduced by circa 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 test “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 a week for 9 years. Another group included weightlifters who didn’t use steroids. Both groups had the same physical activity and similar risks connected with heart diseases. But they had differences in body mass and muscle size. The users of steroids had more muscular physiques.
However small number of steroid users has been evaluated, the results have shown that there is a close link between intake of steroids and heart impairment.
The specialists decided to conduct further researches in order to support the findings.
Baggish and his co-investigators suppose that people will realize that usage of steroids may cause heart problems and different unexplained heart dysfunctions in young persons.

Bodybuilding is not a glamorous sport

Bodybuilding doesn’t belong to glamorous sports. Any bodybuilder can support this statement. Those who are involved in bodybuilding spend much time at gyms, training; they prepare proper meal and make continuous researches. What is this work done for? – Only for 30 seconds on stage. Undoubtedly, if bodybuilders reach high results, they obtain 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 achieve this level because it is needed much work and money for this purpose. But any bodybuilder hopes to reach this level: to be a top bodybuilder, to obtain money and other awards. If you have any interest to learn what is needed for success in bodybuilding, you can look at Jay Cutler and certain other persons. You may also find out role of steroids for achievement of success in bodybuilding.
Jay Cutler is one of the most celebrated bodybuilders in history. In addition to this fact, he has received Mr. Olympia titles 4 times. This bodybuilder 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 per day. Chicken breasts are at the center of his many meals.
It is interesting to mention that Cutler spends more time for consumption of meals than for trainings. He lifts for circa two hours and gets cardio an hour daily. Cutler claims that his day differs significantly from thoughts of people about it. People that are not involved in bodybuilding think that bodybuilders train 8 hours a day. They suppose that if they apply steroids, they will look like professional bodybuilders.
Jay Cutler notes that steroids are not everything in bodybuilding but they play a great role in it. He claims that if anyone wants to reach evident success in sports, he/she should use steroids. Ron Stevens, who is in the sport 15 years, supports the affirmation of Jay Cutler about steroids. He notes that it is impossible to compete without administration of these medicines. After some shows Ron Stevens decided to apply steroids.
Stevens is as dedicated to bodybuilding as Jay Cutler. He consumes much food that could be enough for a family that consists of five members.
The most of bodybuilders haven’t obtained great supplement contracts. They don’t have sufficient money to support their efforts and receive titles of Mr. Olympia.
In fact, the most of dedicated bodybuilders have regular jobs and hope that they will achieve evident success one day.
Cutler had two jobs. He worked and spent each dollar he received for bodybuilding. Finally, he obtained great success. His each effort was paid off.
Thinking over Jay Cutler, any bodybuilder may be encouraged to hope that he will succeed significantly one day. Infamous bodybuilders can dream at least.

It seems that Dana White tries to hide doping of the UFC athletes from media

Dana White, the UFC President, tries to defend UFC efforts against administration of controlled substances.  Dana White says that the UFC fights seriously to push prohibited products out of sports. He confirms that they do more than any other sport organization for this purpose.
Unluckily, affirmations of Dana White are presented only for public relations purposes. They are completely false. The UFC doesn’t do more than any other sport organization, fighting against usage of prohibited preparations.
The UFC President claims that it is impossible to perform random drug testing in the UFC. He says that they have 375 sportspersons under contract. He says that it is impossible to perform random tests because these sportspersons live everywhere; they travel around the world. The UFC President finds it unreal to travel in different countries, looking for these 375 persons, in order to test them continually.
While Dana White tries to prove that it is impossible to test randomly 375 UFC athletes, other sport organizations do it with their sportspersons. They perform random testing successfully.
It isn’t entirely clear what happens really. Does Dana White desire to mislead public about administration of prohibited preparations by the UFC sportspersons? Or is he ignorant wholly, when it comes to the laws of the World Anti-Doping Agency?
The CEO of the US Anti-Doping Agency believes that the UFC does everything in order to avoid agreement with the laws of the WADA. They have own rules and struggle against the WADA rules. However the UFC affirms that they try to protect their sports from administration of prohibited preparations by the WADA rules, the reality demonstrates that it is not true. The UFC rules are miserable in comparison with those of the WADA. Don’t be mistaken!

Mike Wallace convinced Roger Clemens to appear in the Show 60 Minutes

Mike Wallace, a famous investigative reporter, who was one of the original correspondents of CBS’ 60 Minutes died, when he was 93 years old. This journalist made brilliant interviews with world prominent persons. The most recent stories were connected with the former professional baseball player Roger Clemens and accusations related to intake of anabolic steroids and HGH by this sportsperson. Mike Wallace’s last appearance on TV was linked with this case.
The interview with Roger Clemens about steroids was hosted 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 Brian McNamee, his former personal coach. This trainer accused Roger Clemens in usage of anabolic steroids and HGH. He collaborated with investigators of Mitchell Report, when they tried to find out the widespread 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 taken neither steroids, nor HGH. Roger Clemens affirmed that he would pull a tractor with his teeth, if he had taken steroids.
The interview of Clemens was an unsuccessful public relations maneuver for Rusty Hardin. It was not a perceptive interview. But it renewed the interest after Wallace’s death.
Actually, Wallace hosted much more interesting interviews during his career. The steroid interview with Roger Clemens was not the most significant. Why did it draw every person’s attention?
Other interviews of Wallace are quite significant. Wallace made an interview with the lawyer of the president Richard Nixon and the assistant to the president for Domestic Affairs John Ehrlichman during the Watergate scandal. Wallace named 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 journalist named him a “lunatic”. However, he was quoting the president Anwar el-Sadat of Egypt.
Another person that was interviewed by Wallace was the Vice President of Research and Development at a tobacco company. Jeffrey Wigand admitted that executives of the company lied before the Congress about their knowledge linked with nature of nicotine.
Although these interviews were significant, numerous persons directed their attention to insignificant interview with Roger Clemens. It may be because while lying of Roger Clemens before the Congress may lead to federal war on steroids, the war on nicotine will never exist.

Functions of the compound “homobrassinolide” found in mustard for gaining lean muscle mass

Several late researches have set certain positive effects of mustard. Everybody knows that it is an excellent remedy that adds pleasant flavor to meal. Furthermore, it has been set up that mustard may help to lose fat and improve physical appearance.
A research linked with mustard has been led by Debora Esposito and his colleagues at North Carolina University in Kannapolis (USA). It has been reported under results of the research that a compound that is named “homobrassinolide” found in mustard and other related herbs can enhance lean muscle size and endurance in mammals.
28-Homobrassinolide represents a brassinosteroid. It is a type of steroid that has been found in plants which belong to Brassica family. It has been known that it can induce growing plants. But nobody has been aware about its function in mammals. The specialists have defined that homobrassinolide can cause anabolic effects in mammals. It promotes increasing synthesis of protein, stimulates appetite and increases muscle mass through enhancement of number and size of muscle fibers in animals.
Healthy rats have been involved in the study. They have been given oral homobrassinolide during 24 days. Dual-emission x-ray absorptiometry analysis has been applied in order to check changes in weight, food consumption and composition of rats’ bodies. It has been determined that animals who have been given homobrassinolide have gained essentially more muscle mass than those that have not received this compound.
Increase of muscle mass indicates about a higher basal metabolic rate. Increased BMR is associated with great caloric burning that helps to remain lean.
So, the study has clearly displayed that homobrassinolide enhances protein synthesis, enhances size and number of muscle fibers that play a significant role for enhancement of endurance.
Specialists think that such plants, as mustard, may be used for more enhanced brassinosteroid content. It can help to have lean muscle mass, increase it and prevent certain illnesses.
It is suggested that future supplement and medicine industry will elaborate products that will be useful in case of certain illnesses related to muscle wasting. Such preparations may be utilized as alternative preparations to synthetic steroids because the first ones will probably cause minimal or no side consequences.
Leaves of mustard are low-calorie. They are rich in antioxidants. Leaves of mustard have anti-inflammatory properties. Furthermore, they represent a good source of iron, magnesium, fiber, selenium and phosphorous.
Mustard may be used for preparing salads, curds and tempering. It would be useful to take at least one teaspoon of mustard with water or food in order to get several positive effects.

Numerous top athletes bought steroids from the steroid organization which was headed by Dr. Beltran

Mossos d’Esqudra and Spain’s Policia Nacional conducted a steroid investigation that led to arrest of ten persons who were involved in a steroid chain. These individuals provided top amateur and professional sportspersons and even Olympic athletes with anabolic steroids, HGH, EPO, CERA and other related medications.  The investigation was called “Operacion Skype”. The steroid ring was settled in Barcelona.
The investigation was initially related to the professional cyclist David Garcia Dapena that tested positive for EPO after the 2010 Vuelta a Espana. It was affirmed that David Garcia Dapena had increased hematocrit levels that indicated about application of EPO.
Garcia didn’t deny application of the forbidden preparation. He collaborated with the police officials. The cyclist acknowledged that he had purchased medications with performance-enhancing effects from the doctor Alberto Beltran Nino.
It was defined that Beltran had been the leader of an organization connected with sophisticated doping. This organization supplied cyclists and other sportspeople with forbidden medications. It was also defined that certain sportspersons 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 athletes who purchased steroids and other forbidden medications from this doping organization.
It was even earlier supposed that Beltran supplied athletes with steroids and other related medications and taught them how to avoid being caught. This doctor was arrested in Italy after he was caught driving his car that was full of steroids and other doping preparations.
Nuno Ribeiro, a Portuguese professional cyclist, accused the doctor Beltran in injecting him with forbidden products after he tested positive for CERA in 2009.
The runner Jose Luis Blanko assisted in the steroid investigation that had been conducted 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 physician had no any direct contact with any sportsperson.
Nonetheless, the police believe that he has set up a team of intermediaries in different countries. They have bought steroids and other related medicines and supplied top athletes with them.
Beltran was detained in Madrid in March 2012 by police. He was caught possessing AICAR and TB-500.
Although no any athlete has tested positive for these medications, it is supposed that certain sportspersons have planned to apply these drugs.

What have you to understand about AndroGel dosage to acquire wanted effects?

It is usually indicated to begin with the AndroGel dosage of 5 mg/day. The dosage is altered during the treatment. If serum testosterone levels are significantly low, the quantity has to be enhanced.

Prostitutes take corticosteroids in order to be in demand

Teenage females in Bangladesh who are involved in prostitution utilize steroids to add weight and bulk up. It has been written by Reuters. The article’s headline contains the following words: “dark steroid secret”. It is written that prostitutes from Bangladesh administer steroids in order to look better. Undoubtedly, the first thoughts that come in mind in this situation are linked with intake of anabolic steroids. But reading the article completely and more attentively, anyone may see that it is spoken not about anabolic steroids but about corticosteroids.
One of corticosteroids that are getable at pharmacies of Bangladesh is sold under the trade name Oradexon. It is not needed to have a prescription in order to buy this preparation. It costs about 15 taka which equal to 0, 18 USD dollars. Another name of this preparation is Dexamethasone. It is an anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant product which is directed for cure of patients who have various diseases. This preparation is over 25 times more potent that the natural steroid hormone cortisol.
90 % of prostitutes at the 15 legal houses of prostitution from Bangladesh apply the corticosteroid Oradexon. 90 % equal to 900 young prostitutes who apply this medicine systematically. They apply it willingly or are enforced to do it. So, some of them are enforced to utilize it. But others use this preparation willingly because it is said that corticosteroids have ability to enhance strength and improve health.
It seems to be ironically but sex workers from Bangladesh  that apply corticosteroids have the same purposes like those that encourage bodybuilders to use anabolic steroids. Sex workers apply corticosteroids in order to improve physical appearance, gain weight and increase appetite.
It is claimed that Oradexon can give healthy appearance to consumers. Customers appreciate it. A lady that is involved in prostitution in Bangladesh confirms that customers are looking for healthy ladies. Since she needs money to pay her bills and loans, she should have customers each day. If she doesn’t have any customer a day, she doesn’t have what to eat. Furthermore, she put efforts to earn money for her son.
In fact, negative effects that can be provoked due to corticosteroids are much more serious than those which can occur due to intake of anabolic steroids. Corticosteroids may suppress immune system, lead to osteoporosis and insulin resistance, increase appetite significantly, and increase weight and fat.
Experts try to draw people’s attention to abuse of corticosteroids and probable negative results of them.

Why were D. J. Williams and Ryan McBean sentenced to bans?

The National Football League banned the linebacker D. J. Williams and defensive lineman Ryan McBean of the team Denver Broncos for violation of steroid policy. These players were banned from 6 games. But they were not banned for application of steroids. They didn’t test positive for steroids or other forbidden drugs. They were accused in providing “non-human” urine samples to the drug testing officer.
D. J. William said in an interview that he had never tested for any banned medicine during eight years of his career. He noticed that he was proud of his records. He noticed that he was also proud of his manner in that he conducted himself, being a sportsperson.
Peter Schaffer, the defensive attorney for McBean, claimed that the NFL had violated rights of the defensive lineman. He noted that since McBean had never tested positive for any forbidden drug, the NFL didn’t have any right to sentenced him to ban.
Peter Schaffer mentioned that he wanted to make it clear that neither D. J. Williams, nor Ryan McBean tested positive for forbidden medications.
A lawsuit was filed in Denver County Court against suspensions 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.
Peter 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 usage of testosterone. Ryan Braun could prove that the drug testing officer Dino Laurenzi violated steroid policy.
As for Laurenzi, he was defended and supported by different anti-doping agencies. The WADA also supported Dino Laurenzi. 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, he was treated in another way. He was fired by the NFL for wrong doing his duty.
At the hearing the NFL administrators admitted that the drug testing officer violated the chain of custody for urine samples.
Nevertheless, the appeal on behalf of the players was rejected.

The FDA plans to establish certain control over supplement industry

What can be called “a medicine”? The FDA confirms that a medicine is a substance; it is not a dietary supplement. It is administered for diagnosis, treatment, prevention of maladies, for proper influence on body’s functions. It is possible to make it clear that a medication is a medication that has nothing to do with politics and great money.
But you may face certain ambiguity today. A law that has been established in 1994 by Senators Orrin Hatch and Tom Harkin has led to the confusion between dietary supplements and medicines. Thus, mega-billion dollar supplements industry has induced causing the disorder in clear definitions. Users’ ignorance and several legislative statements with doubled sense have played significant role in creation of following wrong conception: everything that is sold is safe.
This incorrect conception caused various serious troubles. For example, more than a year ago two young soldiers of the U. S. Army died due to 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 utilized an amphetamine-like synthetic substance which has been called “dimethylamylamine”. It had negative influence on their cardiovascular and nervous systems. Since it has altered function of bodies, it is a drug. Although it is a forbidden substance administered by sportspersons, it is available at the Vitamin Shoppe or GNC.
Health stores sell preparations that are similar to that compound mentioned above. They are sold as dietary supplements but it is not true.
Another example is DHEA. It represents a steroid which can be converted in consumers’ systems into anabolic steroids or neurohormonal steroids. This factor influences on physiological functions of body. Is it a supplement really?
Another preparation that is getable as a dietary supplement is RockHard Weekend. It contains different substances. But does anybody know which compounds are contained in the bottle? May anybody reassure that they are safe for usage?
One of people’s mistakes is that they believe the following way: if any product is made of plants, it is safe for application. A lot of persons confirm that such supplements can’t have negative influence on body’s functions. It is wrong to believe this way. There are plants which are poisonous. It is forbidden to consume them.
Hemlock was the poison that led to Socrates’ death. It was derived from certain herb. Ricin which is claimed to be one of the most toxicant compounds on the Earth is derived from a castor been roots. That’s why it is necessary to know what you use in order to avoid taking preparations which contain any poison, regardless they are from herbs or not.
Why are companies permitted to offer for sales medicines as if they were dietary supplemenets? Supplements don’t pass any FDA control. Here we may say about affirmations with doubled sense. The Hatch-Harken law allows the supplement industry to introduce substances which are labeled as supplements. But are they really supplements? Certain drugs are getable, being marketed as supplements. But it is wrong completely. These products may be unsafe.
Does anybody suppose that anabolic steroids and other related medicines can be marketed as dietary supplements? Do they supplement or treat? A term was introduced in order to prevent utilizing medical terms. This term is “to support”. What does this verb mean? Isn’t it a wink to the term “to cure”?
The FDA plans 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 medications are safe. Some of them fail to be called “safe” because of dangerous undesirable reactions. But as for manufacturers of dietary supplements, they don’t have these problems because there do not have such requirements in supplement industry.
Supplement requirements are linked with money and not with science. In fact, they should have the same requirements like those that are established for pharmaceutical companies.

This medication is used not just by those who are involved in sports but also by common people that desire to improve appearance. One of the most important features is that   it is not difficult to sustain Anavar results. Positive effects of this remedy are felt as well, in case it is administered for some medical needs.

What promotes using steroids and other related medications by young athletes?

Brian McNamee claims that coaches are the principal persons who induce application of anabolic steroids. The convicted distributor of steroids affirms that coaches have the most relevant influence on decisions of young sportspersons to apply banned medications. Their influence is larger than one of street dealers who offer forbidden medications for sales, trying to convince young people that they can succeed due to administration of these products. Brian McNamee supposes that trainers and the society teach young sportspeople that they should win at any cost. This aspect pressures students that are involved in sports. It induces causing their decision to administer steroids and other related preparations.
Brian McNamee was invited to share his opinion at the Nassau Counselors Association’s conference. He had a speech  during a presentation that was called “Creating a Safe Environment for Our Student-Athletes”. He got an honorarium of 200 dollars. McNamee donated this sum of money to the Taylor Hooton Foundation.
McNamee is known better as a trainer who has injected Roger Clemens with anabolic steroids and HGH. It was claimed that he kept all syringes and vials which were applied for injecting Clemens with steroids during circa 7 years. Brian McNamee supported accusations of federal prosecutors against Clemens.
The testimony of McNamee promoted publishing the Mitchell Report on steroids in the Major League Baseball. The Report was worth of 20 million dollars. It was publicized in December 2007. Testimonies of Brian McNamee and Kirk Radomski were the base for writing the report. They provided evidence related to administration 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 related to steroids.
The agreement also requires testimony of McNamee as a government witness in the trial of Roger Clemens. He couldn’t say details related to the case of Roger Clemens during the Nassau Counselors Association. But the time will come, when he says the story connected with Clemens.
However it was declared a mistrial in the 1st  trial related to the case of Roger Clemens, it was scheduled another trial.

Shaquille O’Neal has asked Dana White to arrange a match for him and Jose Canseco

It has been recently noticed that Jose Canseco and Shaquille O’Neal have spoken about 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 the challenge seriously. Only now Jose Canseco began to take him seriously.
Many people confirm that Jose Canseco needs money since he has been invited to play for the Triple-A Quintana Roo Tigres of the Mexican Baseball League.
Jose Canseco should have a steroid test before starting playing in this team. But as it is known, he takes Testosterone Cypionate and HCG that are indicated by his physician for testosterone replacement therapy. Although he has justified clinical needs for intake of these medications, he should obtain several specified documents to be allowed to play baseball professionally. While his fate related to playing professional baseball is not yet clear, he intends to fight against O’Neal in a match.
O’Neal has reported that he is ready to fight against Jose Canseco. He mentioned that he had challenged Canseco long ago.
Shaquille O’Neal doesn’t worry that Jose Canseco applies anabolic steroids. He possesses own secret methods and he hopes that he has ability to neutralize effects of Jose Canseco that are caused by intake of Testosterone Cypionate.
It was scheduled that Jose Canseco would fight against the former player of the MLB Lenny Dykstra. When this person played baseball professionally, he also applied anabolic steroids.
Randall Lane claims in his book “The Zeroes: My Misadventures in the Decade Wall Street Went Insane” that Lenny Dykstra has admitted that he administered anabolic steroids. Dykstra told Lane that Jose Canseco and he had done steroid revolution in baseball.
Jeff Scott, a bodybuilder from Florida, said that he supplied Dykstra with preparations that increase performance at sums of 20, 000 dollars. He also mentioned that he injected Dykstra with steroids many times.
But the fight between Dykstra and Jose Canseco never happened because Dykstra was prosecuted on certain counts, including thefts, false financial statements and possession of illicit drugs. Finally, he was imprisoned.
O’Neil offered to fight against Jose Canseco instead of Dykstra. He asked the UFC’s president Dana White to arrange a match with Jose Canseco. Jose Canseco accepted the challenge of O’Neil.

The BOA has decided to have hearing with the WADA at a court

The British Olympic Association put efforts to justify itself for the fact that it violates Code of the World Anti-Doping Agency. According to laws of the WADA, punishment for administration of anabolic steroids and other related medicines should be the same in the whole  world. The punishment that is indicated for an athlete that has administered prohibited substances for the first time is sentencing to 2-year bans.
But the British Olympic Association confirms that such punishment isn’t sufficient. The BOA sentences steroid users for life-time bans from participating in the Olympics. The WADA notes that this law of the BOA contradicts the WADA Code that is universal.
Lord Moynihan, the chairman of the BOA, hasn’t agreed to change the rule. As a result, a hearing has been scheduled to be at a Court of Arbitration for Sports in London.
The athletes that had applied prohibited preparations were suspended by the International Olympic Committee from participations in Olympics under the Osaka Rule.
Lord Moynihan proclaimed that the law of the BOA linked with life-time suspensions wouldn’t be cancel, if even the CAS would not support it. The BOA thinks that it has the best rules.
Lord Moynihan supported affirmations written by the former British Olympic decathlete Daley Thompson who noted that British laws linked with intake of prohibited drugs were superior. He noted that they shouldn’t be overthrown by the rest part of the world.
Delay Thompson believes that dopers must be punished strictly. They must be suspended for the whole life. According to his affirmations, the BOA shouldn’t agree with the law of the WADA to sentence cheaters only for 2-year bans. He notes that the Britain wants 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 should follow their low levels.
David Howman, the director general of the WADA, criticizes the opinion pronounced 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 criticizes dopers blames the BOA for the strict law.
Travis states that since international rules have been once established and all have agreed to them, everyone must follow them.
Dwain Chambers and David Millar, British athletes, who have been earlier banned for application of prohibited drugs wait for the decisions linked with this issue. They desire to know whether they will be allowed to compete at the 2012 London Olympics.
