This is a great idea. :applaud:
I think that many people taking supplements are trying to get "an edge" on their opponents. If everyone is taking the same supplements there is no "edge". Don't you think they would still try to find other supplements no sold by the governing body to try and get that advantage. And that's just the ones that are trying to stay legal. If they are knowingly taking a banned substance they will still do so.
