I was offered a presciption for steroids in 1952. I went to the library and found out what they were and I told my doctor no. I knew all kinds of athletes who took them I don't think any one really benefitted from their use. George Park

It's a good idea to only buy nutritional supplements that are manufactured according to pharmaceutical standards. I think he did qexactly what you said. I say a notice on either Cnnor EsSPN that he was suing th ecompany. I think he might have purchased the supplement at a national chain store (I'm not sure so I'm not going to list it hear). Has any one heard anything about the swimmers involved with BALCO? I know at least one was called before hte Grand Jury investigating the company.
