Masters Swimming and Illegal Supplements

There was a piece on Fox sports that showed that small amounts of steroids administered to young healthy adults will have a positive effects on physical and mental health with NO unhealthy side effects. If small amounts of steroids can make your life better - and are not dangerous - then why not use them? If the argument is USMS is more about making yourself better - and that is what steroids do - then wouldn't steroid use fit in USMS credo? This argument only has merit if "safe" steroid use is possible. I do not know if it is, but I do believe in science and I think it is naive to think that safe steroid use won't be possible in the future. If your argument is built on steroids being "unsafe" then it really has nothing to do with my questions...
