Do you think that there are any participants in Masters Swimming that use illegal supplements?

You are right, illegal was the wrong word to use. I should have said against the rules. I know the difference between breaking the law and breaking the rules.
I also don't think age means anything, I'd be willing to bet if there were a test, you might find it more common among older swimmers. As you age the body begins to slow down, we all know this. If I could take something AGAINST THE RULES to slow that process, it would be enticing.
